Overview
Dry Verge & Dry Hip across Oxford & the whole of Oxfordshire
The verge is the tiled edge at the gable end, and the hip is the sloping external corner. Both are traditionally bedded in mortar, and both are where you see cracked, missing mortar and slipping tiles.
Dry verge and dry hip systems clip and screw those tiles in place under a neat capping. They hold firm in wind, they look clean, and they end the cycle of repointing the roof edge.
