What you are looking at
The ridge cap runs the full length of this roof in a straight line. A long ridge is the highest point on the house, so it takes the most wind, and every cap piece is set so it overlaps the next one away from the weather.
The stepped sections beside the main ridge tie into the main slope without a visible break. Each step is its own small roof, and each one has to hand its water off to the plane below it.
We finished the job in October, which gives the shingles time to seal down before the cold sets in.
