FAQs

What material is the dragon cresting made from?

It is hand-cast from real crushed stone bonded with high-quality designer resin.

What are the dimensions and weight of the sculpture?

The dimensions are 53.5 x 42 x 42 cm, and it weighs 6 kg.

Can this be mounted on a flat roof?

This product is designed for pitched rooflines and may not be suitable or easily mountable on flat roofs.

How should I clean the dragon cresting?

Gently wipe it down with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.

Is the brown color weather-resistant?

The bonded resin and stone construction is designed for outdoor durability. The hand-finished surface should be cared for with gentle cleaning to maintain its appearance over time.

Do I need special tools to install it?

Installation requires appropriate tools and fixings for securing a 6 kg object to a roof pitch. Professional installation is highly recommended.

Is this suitable for garden sheds as well as houses?

Yes, it is designed to add architectural character to both home rooflines and garden structures like sheds.

Troubleshooting

Sculpture appears unstable after mounting.

Immediately dismount and consult with a professional installer. Ensure all mounting hardware is appropriate for the weight and securely fastened to the roof structure.

Surface finish appears faded or discolored.

Gently clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. If fading is due to prolonged UV exposure, consider applying a clear, exterior-grade sealant suitable for resin and stone composites (test in an inconspicuous area first).

Small chips or damage to the surface.

For minor chips, a small amount of suitable epoxy or filler designed for outdoor resin/stone can be used. Color matching may be difficult; consider a repair that blends rather than perfectly matches. For significant damage, consult the manufacturer for repair advice.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Due to its weight (6 kg) and intended placement on a roof pitch, professional installation is strongly recommended to ensure secure and stable mounting. The method of attachment will depend on the specific roof material and pitch. It is crucial to use appropriate fixings designed for exterior use and capable of supporting the sculpture's weight.

Compatibility:

This cresting is designed for pitched rooflines. It is compatible with most standard roof materials, but compatibility with the chosen mounting hardware should be confirmed. It is suitable for residential homes, garden sheds, outbuildings, and decorative garden structures.

Care:

To maintain its appearance, gently clean the sculpture with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the hand-finished surface. Periodically check the mounting to ensure it remains secure, especially after severe weather.
