Dry fix system vs traditional mortar ?

[Hunter2k]

If you dont fancy the dry verge system, why not try a cloak verge system? they are not that much more expensive than dry verge

Hopefully i too would be adding these to my roof, its all added cost to make the roof look beautiful . My Neighbour has Redland REGENT tiles on his roof but i'm looking to have the Redland Double Pantile or Double Roman tiles installed (i hate choices lol ). Are these tiles interlockable with Redland REGENT tiles?. I don't really want to fit the half round ridges between the two roofs to make a hip, just makes it Look ugly

and also has anyone used the John Brash battens, {JB-RED} http://www.jb-red.co.uk/ which conforms to the BS8417:2003 this is what they have stated :

THE FIRST FULLY GRADED,
FULLY COMPLIANT ROOFING BATTEN.
NO NEED TO CHECK BATTENS ON
SITE - WE'VE DONE IT FOR YOU
100% GUARANTEED

How much more expensive are these to other battens ? I personally think the extra investment would be worth it if the above is true.

Regents and Double romans (50s) are a lot different.. use one or the other.

Re the JB red.. yes its good but so is JB green.. IMHO the red comes into it's own on slated roofs only.
