Dry Verge Systems Rathcoole
The verge forms the edge of your tiled roof where it meets the gable end of your home, running along the outer line of the roofline. For many years, mortar was the standard way to seal this area. While mortar does its job initially, after a few years it begins to crack and break away, allowing wind and rain to penetrate. A dry verge system does away with mortar altogether, using interlocking, weatherproof caps that deliver superior long-term performance.
How a dry verge system works
Caps made from durable plastic or composite material clip securely over the end of each tile and interlock with one another along the full length of the gable. Each cap is mechanically fixed directly to the roof batten, meaning there’s no reliance on mortar to hold everything in place. What you get is a completely sealed, weather-tight verge that requires no ongoing maintenance.
Benefits over traditional mortar

- Provides complete weather protection, stopping wind-driven rain from getting beneath tiles
