TapcoSlate Classic Ridge-to-Hip Tile (Choice of colour and pitch) Simplified 3-way weatherproofing for complex intersections Simplify complex roof geometry with a dedicated TapcoSlate Classic Ridge-to-Hip Cap where the main ridge meets two hip rafters. Ideal for Edwardian and Georgian hipped roof designs, it removes the need for complex mitring, cutting, or forming at one of the most awkward and demanding points of the roof. The seamless unit creates a precise, fully weatherproof intersection, ensuring consistent alignment of the ridge and hips while delivering a professional finish without traditional lead work or mortar construction.
