Durable Upgrade: A Modern Dry Ridge System for Enhanced Roof Protection

Durable Upgrade: A Modern Dry Ridge System for Enhanced Roof Protection

The original roof on this property had suffered from the deterioration of the mortar in the ridges, which had perished over time, allowing for potential water ingress and reduced roof performance. To address this issue, we began by carefully removing the existing mortar from the ridges, ensuring that the structure was fully prepped for a more reliable solution.

In place of the outdated mortar, we installed a new dry ridge system across the property. This system is designed to provide a maintenance-free, secure ridge while also improving ventilation, which helps regulate temperature and moisture levels within the roof. The dry ridge system is mechanically fixed, offering enhanced stability and long-term durability compared to traditional mortar ridges.

By eliminating the need for mortar, we’ve ensured that the ridges are resistant to cracking and deterioration, which can lead to costly repairs in the future. The new dry ridge system also helps protect the roof from water ingress and provides added ventilation, ultimately contributing to the overall longevity and health of the roof.

This project not only improves the roof’s function and aesthetic appeal but also ensures that the home will remain well-protected from the elements for years to come. With this upgrade, the property now benefits from a weatherproof, durable roofing system that requires little to no maintenance moving forward.
