Gable end (dry ridge?)repoint or upvc what's best?

Recommended Posts

Moved into an end terrace house and had the dry ridge repointed 3 times in 2 yrs it's cracked yet again and I'm scared birds maybe in there the loft is a large store room.

Has anyone else had the upvc put in?

Or do i need to keep having repointed?

Depends on your roof covering.

Slate or tile?

There are modern alternatives on the market.

Happy to take a look and advise on best course of action.

I'd say rake out all the old mortar and use roofing putty.

Its permanently flexible so will never crack or fall out.
