Dry Verge Systems Blanchardstown
The verge forms the edge of a tiled roof where it meets the gable end, running along the outer line of the roofline. For years, mortar was the standard method of sealing this junction. It does the job initially, but after a few years the mortar 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 plastic or composite materials clip neatly over the end of each tile and interlock with one another down the length of the gable. Each cap is mechanically fixed to the roof batten, so the system relies on secure fixings rather than mortar adhesion. The outcome is a fully sealed, weatherproof verge that requires no ongoing maintenance.
Benefits over traditional mortar

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

- Backed by manufacturer guarantees of 10 years or more on most systems
