Now that’s a proper craftsman at work. The hardest thing is finding somebody like you to do your own house. How do you know they are going to do a job as good as you have done? And how do you judge what is a fair price? Great video.

Will, you're a legend mate. After seeing the video I decided to do the same on my house and I'm just sitting having a rest now its all finished and I've saved myself a good couple of grand. Thanks!

@ToTheRegiment 2 года назад

Hard graft but looks great finished. Just a couple of notes :- We always pre wet all areas of contact to create a good key to the Ridge n tiles, also a 50/50 mix sharp sand/building sand makes the mortar set really hard,. Enjoyed your vid. David

@kaitaidhg595 4 месяца назад

Will….You’re going to save me a fortune. Builders who did mine years ago used cement under the tiles that crumbles to dust when you touch it and they rendered over the top with point (Australian term maybe). Is there a way to colour the cement to a charcoal grey colour at all? Be safe up there. Your time making the vid is time saved for us. Appreciated so much mate (from Adelaide, South Australia).

@66journeyman 4 года назад

Another quality job👍🏻. Done a fair bit of that over the years. The joints are playing up now so I leave it to the younger lads. Building sand is ok with tiles that are flat, but with tiles that have a heavy profile, you want to mix building and concrete sand 50/50, with a sand/cement ratio of 3:1. Stops it sagging between the profile and will still be there for many years to come😉

Great vid - well explained. I like that you put down some DPM under the ridge tiles that you didn't get to due to the rain to help keep the rain out over night. I once had a roofer that was leaving me over night with no ridge tiles. I had to call him that evening to put something up there as we were expecting rain that night.

@Eldorado1253 4 года назад

Great vid as usual found it strange you only used building sand and cement to bed the ridges back on l always used a mix of concreting sand and building sand and cement has the concreting sand makes it weather better , have done them like this for over 35 yrs this is how l was taught by an old roofer

@BuildWithAE 4 года назад

Hi Eldorado1253 like the idea of that is it because the aggregate sand gives an extra bind to the mix, what ratio do use use. Thanks for watching all the best Tony 👍

Is it possible to retro-fit a dry ridge system, in a circumstance like this ?

@brianhewitt8618 4 года назад

A standard dry ridge system doesn't really work well with that type of pan tile, you would still have to do a bed of mortar for it to seat on, you can get systems for this tile but in the situation shown, bed and point would be better and about the same amount of work.

@BuildWithAE 4 года назад

I believe so. You can apply a dry ridge system to most roofs. A lot of new builds have the dry ridge system but the customer on this particular job wanted it looking the same as before. And I like to think I'm old school 😃 prefer mucking on the ridges, more skill involved. Take care!
