FAQs

1. Can these hip tiles be installed on roofs with different main tile types?

While these tiles are designed to match perfectly with Redland concrete tiles, they can also be used to provide a contrasting aesthetic with other compatible tile types. Compatibility should be confirmed with the supplier or manufacturer before installation.

2. Are the block end hips and end caps included with the hip tiles?

No, block end hips and end caps are additional components that can be purchased separately to complete the roofing system. They ensure a professional and polished finish for the roof edges.

3. What are the advantages of using dry fixing compared to mortar bedding?

Dry fixing offers a quicker installation process, reduces reliance on weather conditions, and provides enhanced durability over time. Mortar bedding, while traditional, may require more maintenance due to the potential for cracking or degradation.
