Dry verge caps

[Jamie Frost]

Hi,

Does anyone else think these dry verge caps are not fitted correctly on a new build. The site manager think they are and said it depends where the cut is.

It looks like you can see the cuts but I’m assuming the flat part of the tile tucks into the caps and it’s just that we can’t see the flat part of the tile. That’s my take on it. No way would the caps be fitted under the tiles, even Harvey Price wouldn’t do that.

Thanks for the info

when your allowed into the property take pics of the caps from the dormer window.
you need a down pipe from that outlet as soonest - water streaks an be seen down the wall.
the dormer tiles dont seem to project over the dormer fascia an no felt can be seen?
cant tell from the angle of the photo but the dormer valley looks odd?
is there a full length gutter, like a secret gutter, flashing the dormer cheeks to the roof tiles?

the gable brickwork is snotty an smeared - but the actual bricklaying is tops.

Thanks for the info, there is a channel down both sides of the doomer window I hope, I’ll take a picture of both just to make sure. Not sure what you mean about the gable end brickwork is snotty an smeared . The top picture is before the roof went on, the second picture is the property next to ours. Thanks for your help

That's a prefab grp dormer and they have a built in
secret gutter about a foot wide all round.

the new pics show the valley is fine an the tiles tip just out over the dormer fascia - i thought they were stopped behind the fascia.

My first thought too was the tiles looked short so I
think they are not intending to put any gutters up.
