Hello, last year we had our roof redone and the size of the coping stones has been bothering us. A different builder as now commented on them too. Can you comment on whether the coping stones pictured are dangerously wide for the parapet and need to be replaced with narrower ones to avoid the risk of them falling off and hurting someone. Thanks
Coping stones too wide?

Any idea how they are fixed?
I am not a pro but although they do look a bit wide, there is the heck of a lot of stone on the wall compared to the overhang. It would take quite a gale to blow them off.

They’re fixed with cement.
