Description
This is a lovely ball top dragon finial that is based on a wide ridge tile fitting angled at 35 degrees for a 110 roof pitch. It is a lovely roof finial to decorate the gable end but could also be installed anywhere along the ridge line. The dragon can be rotated to face a different direction on request
Fitting: 35 degree ridge tile for 110 degree roof pitch
Material: Concrete based roofing product
Lead time: Please check the website notice at the top of the site for current lead time information (we frequently update). We offer an extensive range of designs, ridge bases, crests, colours, and customisation choices, meaning a wide range of finial possibilities. To accommodate this choice, every product is made bespoke, tailored and crafted according to the individual preferences of our customers. Consequently, each item has an associated lead time and delivery timeline. Images are intended solely for illustrative purposes, and occasional measurements might be approximate. For precise or supplementary product details, please contact us
Delivery: Signed for tracked delivery to UK mainland England and Wales is included in the price. If the delivery address is in Scotland, British Isles or Isle of Wight please contact us before placing an order for a delivery quote. We are no longer sending to EU countries and internationally due to customs complexities and rising costs after Brexit
Performance & Quality: All products are certified and tested to BS EN 490:2004 & BS EN 491:2004. The product is freeze\thaw resistant and the default finish is similar to the appearance of clay products
Installing the dragon: The dragon is well suited to the gable end but it can be installed anywhere on the roof along the ridge line. If there are existing ridge tiles on the roof a ridge tile can be removed and the finial can be fitted in place with mortar to bed them in
Mechanical Fixing (Optional): Finials include a flexible metal strap on the underside of the ridge tile section out of view which allows optional mechanical fixing so the finial can be fixed to the roof structure with either a nail or screw and then the mortar bed then hides the metal strap and further strengthens the install. The metal strap is strong, flexible and can be uncoiled and cut to size
