Two concrete ridge-cap are missing at end of ridge. All ridge tile ( V-Ridge ) are installed the same direction. Hip starter style tile at beginning of run. Missing ridge tile at opposite end. How do you properly complete installation of missing ridge-cap. Highly visible on church roof 12/12 slope- 3-stories up.

I must be missing something from the description- maybe it's a regional thing.

Here- we don't seem much concrete tile- but there is a fair amount of of ceramic tile about- Ludowicci, etc.

Usually each end of the ridge has a fairly ornate termination piece-like a finial.

what I am thinking is- i would research the tile-find what the appropriate termination piece was supposed to be and supply those. the ones i am thinking of- I ususally get them from recycled roofs and they can be pretty pricey- $200-$400 or so apiece sometimes and I enjoy the challenge of tracking them down
