Tiled Roofs In Northstowe

Northstowe homes are roofed with concrete or clay-style tiles, and the surrounding villages mix older clay tile roofs with post-war concrete tiles. On new roofs, the tiles themselves are usually fine but ridge and verge details can work loose. On older roofs, it's often the battens and underlay beneath that have reached the end.

We install and repair across all major options to suit your home and budget.

Local Knowledge

Tiled roofs across Northstowe and the villages

On Northstowe's new homes, we mostly fix loose or rocking ridge tiles, verge tiles with cracked mortar and the odd slipped tile. We can re-bed in mortar or fit a dry-fix system that is more secure in high winds. In Longstanton and Oakington we re-tile post-war homes where concrete tiles have weathered and old felt has torn. That means stripping the roof, laying breathable underlay, fixing new battens, and fitting new interlocking tiles or matching clay plain tiles.

Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01223 398097 or book online.

Warranties and getting the details right

Loose ridge or verge tiles on a home still under its new-build warranty should go to the developer first. Outside the warranty, we're happy to help. Re-tiling with similar tiles normally needs no planning permission, but changing the look on a newer estate may. A new tiled roof comes with our 10-year guarantee.

Roofing in a conservation area or on a listed building

Conservation areas and listed buildings have tighter rules for roof work. Like-for-like repairs are often fine, but changing materials or adding roof windows may need permission or consent.
