I have had a quote to do the following:
install plastic Dry verg caps on the 2 x gable ends, each end say 40
feet (12 meters) Total 24 metres.
Drip felt for overhang in to guttering. Approx total 60 feet (18 metres)

Been quoted £300. Good price or not?
Anything to look out for if/when they do the work.

Last time I looked (which was some time ago to be fair), dry verge and
ridge kits were fairly pricey. So that sounds like a decent price.


Have since googled.

Difficult to work out the cost of materials as there is so many
variables but I reckon around £265 thats without a trade discount.

I doubt if they will spend more than 3 hours if that on the job.

If the verge can be fitted over whatever is already there, then its
reasonably quick once you have access (although slow if you have to do
it from a ladder). The felt drip can be a PITA to do well though, since
it can mean lifting the first row of tiles (which might be nailed on)
and at least the first roof batten to get it under the existing felt
etc. (unless they have some form of repair kit that's designed to just
slot in under the edge of the tiles.
