Tiled Roofing: your questions answered.
Can you replace just a few broken tiles?
Yes. If the rest of the roof is sound, replacing individual tiles is often all that is needed.
Concrete or clay tiles, which should I choose?
Concrete is more affordable and comes in many styles. Clay is traditional and long lasting. We will advise based on your property and budget.
Why do tiles slip?
Usually because of failed fixings, worn felt, or storm damage. We will find the cause, not just refit the tile.
Do you re-bed and repoint ridge tiles?
Yes, loose or cracked ridge tiles are a common cause of leaks and we deal with them as part of the work.
