Dry Verge Systems in Kent
The verges are the exposed edges of a pitched roof where it meets the gable wall, and they are vulnerable to wind and water. Pro Guard Roofing Specialists Ltd installs dry verge systems throughout Kent, providing a mortar-free, mechanically fixed edge that protects the roof and looks neat for years.
About this service
Traditional verges are pointed in mortar, which cracks and falls out over time, letting wind and rain under the edge tiles. A dry verge system clips over the edge tiles to secure them mechanically and weather the verge without any mortar. It is neat, wind-resistant and maintenance-free, and is standard on many new pitched roofs.

Our process
We start with a professional inspection of your roof — using drone imagery where access is difficult — to identify the cause of the problem rather than just the symptom.
You receive a clear written quotation setting out the recommended works, materials and price, with no obligation.
Our experienced roofing team carries out the work using quality materials, keeping the site clean and organised throughout.
We complete a final inspection, remove waste responsibly and confirm any applicable workmanship guarantee.
Guarantees
Qualifying works are backed by a Pro Guard workmanship guarantee, confirmed in writing with your quotation.
Frequently asked questions
Can you add a dry verge system to my existing roof?
Yes, where the edge tiles are sound. We remove the old mortar pointing and install a dry verge system that secures and weathers the edge mechanically.
Do dry verge systems come in different colours?
Yes. Dry verge systems are available in a range of colours to match or complement your tiles. We discuss the options during the inspection.
