  • Description

    This is a very decorative crown crest round finial that is based on a larger ridge base than our other round range. It is a great finishing option for a circular roof structure such as a tower roof, a circular roof spire, or all other kinds of circular roofs. It can also be used as a gate pier on a flat surface. The round crown finial is bedded in place with mortar to secure it to the roof structure. For further stability, it can also be secured in place mechanically by nails or screws by fitting the metal strap (hidden out of view) on the underside of the base to the roof structure before it is bedded in with mortar. The round finial can either sit on a flat base or be fitted over existing roof tiles.

    If you need any assistance, please contact us or email us a picture of your roof structure so that we can advise on fitting. If you need the round finial to fit over lead work we may also be able to advise on a suitable way of fixing it, including manufacturing a piece with some countersunk holes. On the underside of the circular base it is conical shaped and is angled at a 50 degree pitch. The round finial has been made as generic as possible to fit with flat surfaces to roof pitches up to 110 degrees. External

    Our large selection of designs, ridge bases, finial crests, colour finishes, and customisation options provides an array of possibilities, resulting in countless unique and individual finial designs possible. To cater to this variety, all products are bespoke and made to order to the specific preferences of our customers. As a result, each item has a designated lead time for manufacturing and delivery (refer to our delivery info for details). Please note that the images provided are solely for illustrative purposes, and measurements may occasionally be estimated.

  • How to fit and install

    There are several ways to install roof finials, as outlined below:

    Traditional mortar bedding:

    Roof finials can be installed following the same method used for ridge tiles, utilising standard mortar bedding. In cases where the finial is tall or heavy, or if enhanced stability is desired, an additional mechanical fix method can be employed alongside the mortar bed installation.

    Mechanical fixing strap and mortar bedding:

    For this type of install, a galvanized metal strap is included, discreetly fastened to the underside of the finial ridge base during manufacturing. This durable and flexible metal strap can be adjusted in length by cutting it down to size. Featuring a series of holes, the strap can be screwed, nailed, or embedded in mortar to anchor it to a section of the roof structure. After securing the metal strap, installers can conceal it from sight by applying traditional mortar bed. The mortar used to join the finial with adjacent ridge tiles effectively conceals the strap, resulting in a seamless and neat appearance.

    Dry fixing:

    Another approach to affixing finials to the roof involves the dry fixing method. This technique involves using a specific manufacturer's dry fixing system, typically incorporating brackets or alternative mechanical fasteners to attach ridge tiles and finials to the roof without the use of mortar. If you are considering a dry fix ridge system, please get in touch with us to determine if this finial design can be adapted to be compatible with your chosen system.
