Ridge Tiles & Roofing Birkenhead

Ridge Tilers Birkenhead

Here at Birkenhead Roofers, we offer a full maintenance service for roofs, covering everything from repointing to resetting ridge tiles in Birkenhead.

Ridge tiles are built to overlap at the peak of the roof, sitting over the converging tiles on both sides, giving protection from the weather and adding rigidity to lock everything securely in place.

Older roofs are traditionally built using a wet ridge tile system, which means the ridge tiles are set onto a wet bed of mortar to hold them firmly in place.

Newer roofs tend to use a dry ridge system that relies on plastic components to lock the tiles in place without any need for mortar at all.

With older roofs, it is quite common for the mortar to get blown out over time, which can eventually lead to water finding its way inside.

We offer thorough services for repairing and repointing older ridge tile systems in Birkenhead, as well as swapping out the whole system and fitting a brand new dry ridge system that needs no ongoing maintenance.

Alongside dry ridge systems, we also offer options for repairing roofs, skylight repairs, chimney repairs and more in Birkenhead.
