Tiled Roofs In Southminster
Southminster's old centre around St Leonard's Church has historic buildings and cottages with clay tile roofs, while the post-war homes, bungalows and newer houses around it mostly have concrete tiles. In such an open, windy setting, a tiled roof is only as good as its fixings, especially at the ridges, hips and verges where the wind bites hardest.

Clay and concrete tile work in Southminster
On clay tile roofs in the old centre, common jobs include replacing slipped plain tiles, renewing rotten battens and re-bedding ridges. On concrete interlocking tile roofs, we see lifted ridge and hip tiles, loose verges and cracked tiles after storms. Older roofs may also have perished underlay that sags between rafters. For a re-roof, we strip the tiles, fit breathable underlay and new battens, then relay with clips and nails, dry-fixing ridges, hips and verges. Where clay tiles are reusable, we keep them and match the rest. A complete tiled re-roof is a new roof and carries our 10-year guarantee on new roofs.
Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01245 520306 or book online.

In the conservation area covering the historic centre, keeping the right tile matters, and changing materials may need planning permission or listed building consent. For bungalows and newer homes outside it, like-for-like tile replacement usually doesn't need permission. If you're thinking of changing tile type, we'll explain what suits your roof's pitch.

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.
