Description
This roof dragon is one of the cutest in the range and has beautiful features and detailing. The wings, scales and claws are all tiny details that really stand out and make it a nice piece to look at The roof dragon is based on a segmental ridge tile fitting which is longer and shallower than a half round ridge tile. There are plenty of roofs out there that have segmental tiles and this dragon is best suited to roofs that have the segmental variety of ridge tiles installed The finial is best suited to the gable end of the roof
Fitting: Segmental ridge tile
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).

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 can be installed anywhere on the roof along the ridge line but typically they are installed on the end of a gable or hip end. 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
