Bonnets & Valley Tiles

Valleys on the roof are made when two slopes meet, creating a gully where water can flow down, dispersing into a safe area. They are constructed from various materials chosen depending on the aesthetics and the amount of water flow the valleys will incur. 

What are bonnet hips?

Bonnet hip tiles are installed on the hips of your roof to complete the look. Unlike other roof tiles, they are curved to suit the roof hip. In addition, the bonnet's hips are easily installed primarily by being angled down, thus allowing the installer to overlap simply. 

Primary manufacturers of plain tiles like Redland or Marley have a vast quantity of colours, capable of matching the colour scheme of almost any roof. However, concrete and clay roof tiles are the top picks to create a seamlessly integrated valley on the roof. 
Slates and high-profile tiles would traditionally use lead or aluminium-type valleys. However, Dryfix GRP valleys have become more popular due to the redundancy of using a mortar mix, allowing for a cleaner and faster job.

At JJ Roofing Supplies, you'll find a complete range of valleys meeting high-quality standards, and we are sure you can find the valley roof tile you need.

What is the purpose of a roof valley?

A roof valley is an essential feature of your house. Its purpose is to allow water to flow smoothly down your roof, which would otherwise pool on your roof and potentially cause leaks. Valley flashing is installed where two roof facets meet at a slope to allow water to flow into the gutter system.

How long does a roof valley last?

The lifespan of a roof valley is determined by multiple factors, such as the quality and type of materials used during installation, weather patterns in its geographical location, and other influences. However, with proper maintenance and consideration of key factors, you can expect up to 20 years of life from their roof valleys.
