Gable ends that stay sealed, without the mortar repairs.
The verge is the edge of the roof at the gable end, and on most older roofs it is finished with mortar. Wind and frost crack that mortar, it falls out in chunks, and the verge tiles start to move. Dry verge units clip over the ends of the tiles and fix to the battens, securing the edge and keeping the rain out without any mortar at all.
We fit dry verge on new roofs and as an upgrade to existing ones, often alongside a dry ridge, as on the Haywards Heath new roof in May 2026. The finish is clean and neat, it prevents water ingress and tile movement, and it is now one of the most reliable ways to secure the edges of a pitched roof.
Where the bargeboards behind the verge have rotted, we replace those too, as part of the same visit. All work is guaranteed and we are fully insured.

Dilyan K.September 2026
Whole roof replaced, joists included
They were very quick for inspection and doing the job, competitive on price and did a good job in replacing the whole roof including joists and patching the concrete on the side. They cleaned up the space after and were prompt with communication. My only gripe is that they did not reattach the existing netting to how it was before, but it was just left semi-covering the space. Overall I would recommend them. I will try to post updates on the roof in the following years as well.Read it on Google
