Tiled Roofs In Dovercourt

Walk inland from the Dovercourt seafront and the roofs change from clay tile and slate to concrete tiles. Whatever is on your roof, the battens and underlay beneath matter just as much as the tiles themselves, and in a windy seaside town they all get tested.

Local Knowledge

Tile work across Dovercourt

Clay tile roofs on the older seafront houses usually need targeted repairs: cracked tiles replaced with reclaimed matches and ridges rebedded or dry-fixed. Concrete interlocking tiles on the post-war bungalows rarely break, but the felt underneath often perishes and the battens rot. Then re-tiling is the answer, using breathable underlay, new treated battens and either the original tiles or new ones. We also work on pantiles when a property has them. Verges and ridges are mechanically fixed, so wind cannot pick them off.

Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01206 648098 or book online.

Tile choices and permissions in Dovercourt

Changing tile type on a property in the Lower Dovercourt conservation area may need permission, so we check before quoting. Where tiles are being replaced on an inland bungalow, we can talk through colour and profile so the roof suits its neighbours. Handy if you want the street to look consistent. Re-tiling the whole roof counts as a new roof, which means our 10-year guarantee on new roofs applies.

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.
