Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between dry ridge and traditional mortar ridge installation?
Dry ridge installation uses a breathable, weatherproof system to secure ridge tiles without mortar, allowing better ventilation and reducing the risk of cracking and damp. Traditional mortar ridges rely on a cement mix that can deteriorate over time, leading to potential leaks and maintenance issues.
How long does dry ridge installation typically take?
The duration depends on the size and complexity of the roof, but typically dry ridge installation can be completed within one to two days. Mitchell's Roof Repairs aims to work efficiently to minimise disruption while maintaining high-quality standards.
Can dry ridge installation help with roof ventilation problems?
Yes, dry ridge systems are designed to improve roof ventilation by allowing air to flow beneath the ridge tiles while keeping out water and debris. This helps reduce condensation and moisture, contributing to a healthier roof environment.
