What is a dry verge system?
A dry verge system is a roofing solution designed to protect the edges of roof tiles on gable ends without the use of traditional mortar. Instead of mortar, the system uses interlocking caps or covers—usually made of uPVC or another durable material—to secure the tiles in place. This provides a neat, clean finish along the roof edge and helps prevent common issues like tile displacement and weather damage caused by wind and rain.
The dry verge system is valued for its durability, low maintenance, and weather resistance, making it a popular choice for both new builds and roof renovations. It also enhances ventilation and prevents birds and insects from nesting under roof tiles.
