ABSTRACT:
An elongate roof ridge capping member for a tiled roof includes a pair of longitudinally extending flanges interconnected by a capping section. The capping section is connected to at least one of the flanges by a re-entrant portion, being so connected to both flanges in the case of a member for a duo-pitch roof. The re-entrant portion defines a longitudinally extending recess which can receive the end of a roof tile. The flange in the recess is provided with a longitudinal ridge or the like which inter-engages with the nib of the tile to hold it in position. Filler units may be used to provide weathering of tiles with profiled upper surfaces.
