Tiled Roofs In Tiptree

If you live in Tiptree, there is a good chance your roof is covered in concrete interlocking tiles. They went onto many of the homes and bungalows built as the town grew after the war, and a lot of those roofs now need attention. A smaller number of older cottages carry clay plain tiles instead, which call for a different touch.

Options for your roof

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

Local Knowledge

Concrete and clay tiles across Tiptree

Concrete interlocking tiles are generally tough, but on post-war Tiptree homes the battens and underlay beneath them are often the originals. We regularly find perished felt hanging in the loft, soft battens and nail-sick tiles that slip in strong wind. Single broken tiles can be swapped and sections re-battened, but a roof with failing underlay throughout is usually better stripped and re-laid with breathable underlay and new battens. Clay plain tiles on older cottages are smaller and hang on nibs, often nailed every few courses, and we can usually save and reuse the good ones.

Tiles that stay put in Tiptree

Wind across open fields tests the verges and ridges first, so on a re-tile we fit dry-fix ridges and verges and clip tiles where needed. Matching an older profile can take some sourcing, and we will tell you if a close match is the best available. A complete re-tile is covered by our 10-year guarantee on new roofs.

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.
