| PVC End Cap with Fixing Screws |
Roof edges left uncapped or poorly finished don’t just look rough, they invite costly problems. British weather, loose tiles, and unsealed apexes at ridge joints can lead to damage that spreads fast. Traditional mortar deteriorates over time, and DIY patch-ups rarely last.
The 68mm U Ridge PVC End Cap with Fixing Screws solves these problems with precision giving contractors and homeowners a no-fuss, long-lasting roofing solution.
The Problem with Open Verge Edges
Many roofs across the UK share the same weak point: the exposed junction where dry verge units meet at the ridge line. This area, often finished with brittle mortar or improvised fittings, is vulnerable to wind uplift, frost damage, and water ingress.
Whether you're upgrading a garden outbuilding or retrofitting an entire roofline, this flaw can cause heat loss, leaks, and even safety hazards if tiles come loose.
The Answer: 68mm of Reinforced Protection
This U-ridge end cap creates a seamless, tight fit at the point your ridge tiles meet. Crafted from high-grade uPVC, it’s built to withstand UV rays, heavy rainfall, and daily wear all without cracking, warping, or needing constant maintenance.
With a height of 226mm and a depth of 68mm, it fits most standard U-ridge profiles straight out of the box. Installation is simple and tool-light, thanks to the included 2x fixing screws that lock the cap in place without adhesives or mortar.

Designed for Speed, Built for British Weather
The last thing any contractor wants is another fiddly component. This end cap matches common U-ridge specs, saving you from trimming or modifying parts onsite. No special tools. No delays.
The mechanical fixing system prevents tiles from lifting especially under high winds and locks the ridge edge tight without relying on old-school mortar. It’s not just faster; it’s smarter.
Finish Options for Every Roof Profile
Available in both rounded and square-line finishes, the cap blends cleanly with a range of tile styles. Whether you're finishing a heritage slate ridge or a modern flat tile setup, there's a version to suit the job.
This makes it a go-to across domestic and commercial roofing projects especially where a neat finish and minimal maintenance are non-negotiable.
Where This Cap Makes Sense
It’s a smart fit for any Roofing Solution requiring a strong, secure ridge cap. From Home & Garden buildings like extensions and garages, to full-scale property developments, this cap plays a key role in protecting the structure from top to bottom.
As a roofing accessory, it pairs naturally with other site essentials from ➤ Door Threshold systems to Anti‑Slip Mats, Rubber Strips, and GRP Products. The shared goal? Build smarter, and build it to last.
Why Mechanical Fixing Wins
Mortar might have once been the norm, but today it’s a risk. When mortar breaks down, tiles move. That movement causes gaps, water entry, and in bad weather, tile displacement.
This cap’s secure screw-fastening removes that risk entirely. Two screws anchor it flush to the ridge, offering a stable, permanent seal even during harsh conditions.
No more callbacks. No more corner-cutting. Just a better way to finish your roofing work.
Expand Your Range Beyond Rooflines
Whether you’re speccing out a school, kitting out a shed, or fixing up a semi, this cap complements other multi-purpose tools and accessories in your build.
