A dry ridge system is a modern, long-lasting alternative to traditional mortar bedding for securing ridge tiles at the top of your roof. At Roofline Property Services, we specialise in the supply and installation of high-performance dry ridge systems that improve roof ventilation, weather protection and durability.
If your old mortar ridge is cracking, falling away or letting in water, upgrading to a dry ridge system is one of the most effective ways to secure the top of your roof permanently.
Here is the full dry ridge installation process carried out by Roofline Property Services:

We begin by inspecting your existing ridge tiles and mortar. Any loose, cracked or damaged tiles are removed. Old mortar bedding is taken out to create a clean, stable surface. Damaged felt or underlay beneath the ridge line is also assessed and replaced if needed.

Professional installation of custom solutions to fit any home or building.
Fixing brackets are fitted to the ridge batten. These brackets securely anchor the ridge tiles in place and provide the structural strength needed for long-term performance.

Each ridge tile is aligned and fixed using stainless steel screws and clamps. This mechanical fixing ensures tiles cannot lift during storms or high winds.
Once the tiles are secured, all visible components are checked for alignment and strength. The system provides a clean, neat finish with no mortar required.

We carry out a full inspection of the ridge and surrounding roof area to ensure the installation is watertight, ventilated and securely fixed.








Upgrading to a dry ridge system provides a range of long-term benefits:
Homeowners across Northern Ireland are choosing dry ridge systems because of their long-term strength, low maintenance and improved roof performance.
