Roofing in Harwich: what's different here
Harwich is a historic port town on a peninsula where the Stour and Orwell meet the North Sea. Its Old Town is packed with old buildings, and its position on the water means roofs here face some of the toughest weather in Essex.
Call 01206 648098The homes and their roofs
The Old Town has narrow streets of old houses and cottages with clay tile and slate roofs, tall chimneys and leadwork. Beyond it are Victorian terraces and post-war homes with concrete tiles, timber fascias and flat-roofed extensions.
Conservation area and planning
Harwich has a conservation area covering the Old Town, with many listed buildings. Tendring has 20 conservation areas in total. If your home is in one, or is listed, changing the roof materials or adding roof windows may need planning permission or listed building consent. We check this before we quote and match the original materials.
Sea wind and salt air
With water on three sides, Harwich roofs take strong winds and salty air straight off the sea. Ridge and hip tiles lift, verges loosen, lead and mortar wear out, and metal fixings and gutter brackets rust faster than inland. Dry-fix ridges and corrosion-resistant fixings stand up much better here, so we recommend them.
