Guarantee details →Dry Ridge for Burnham-on-Sea homes
Burnham-on-Sea's mix of Victorian seafront properties, bungalow estates and retirement homes keeps us busy with roof repairs, re-roofs and low-maintenance rooflines. Coastal weather is a real factor here — exposed frontages near the seafront take a battering from wind-driven rain and salt air.
Dry ridge mechanically fixes the ridge tiles along the top of your roof instead of bedding them on mortar. It's more secure in high winds, needs far less maintenance, and provides ridge-line ventilation — which is why it's now standard on new roofs.

Dry Ridge in Burnham-on-Sea — your questions answered
What is dry ridge?
Dry ridge mechanically fixes each ridge tile to the roof with screws and a ventilated roll, instead of bedding them on mortar. It's more secure, lower maintenance and now standard on new roofs.
Why is mortar ridge a problem?
Over the years mortar cracks, washes out and lets ridge tiles work loose — which is dangerous and lets water and wind in. Dry ridge removes that failure point entirely.
Does dry ridge help with condensation?
It can — a ventilated dry ridge improves airflow at the top of the roof space, which helps reduce condensation. We'll advise whether it's relevant to your roof.
