The Right Tile for Your Home

Most tiled roofs around Windsor, Berkshire and South West London carry one of two materials, and we install both:

Clay tiles are the traditional choice. The colour is fired right through the tile, so it never fades, and the warm tones suit Victorian and Edwardian streets in places like Richmond and Twickenham. Our recent Richmond re-roof used clay tiles over new felt and battens, finished with traditional lead flashing.

Concrete tiles, including the Redland range, deliver excellent weather performance for a lower cost per square metre, with a wide choice of profiles and colours. On our Surbiton re-roof we fitted Redland 49 tiles in a brown and red mix, a profile that has been protecting British homes for generations.

We bring samples to the survey so you can see both against your brickwork before anything is ordered, and the whole job is priced in a free written quote.

Re-Felting & Re-Battening, Explained

Tiles get the attention, but two hidden layers decide whether a tiled roof actually keeps water out:

  • The felt (underlay) catches any wind-driven rain that gets past the tiles and carries it down to the gutter. When it goes brittle and tears, the roof leaks even with every tile intact.
  • The battens are the timber rails every tile hangs on. When they rot or the nails corrode, tiles slip no matter how good they look.

On our Richmond clay tile job we stripped the roof right back and renewed both: new felt across every elevation, new treated battens gauged to the tile, then the clay tiles fitted over the top with lead flashings dressed at the junctions. The same job also included rebuilding a flat roof section, so the whole property was watertight in one visit.

If a roofer quotes you a re-tile without mentioning felt and battens, ask what happens to them. It is the difference between a new roof and an expensive tidy-up.

Honest advice

Re-Tile or Repair? How We Decide

We look at three things before recommending anything, and you get the verdict in writing with photos.

How Widespread Is the Damage?

A few cracked or slipped tiles on one elevation points to a repair. Failing tiles scattered across the whole roof points to a covering that has weathered out.

What State Is the Felt In?

Sound felt means a repair will hold. Perished, torn felt means water will keep finding new ways in, and only a strip and re-felt fixes that.

What Will It Cost Over Five Years?

If rolling repairs will cost more than a re-tile over the next few years, we say so. If a modest repair genuinely solves it, we say that instead.

FAQs

Tiled Roof Questions, Answered

Clay tiles hold their colour for life and suit older and period homes, which is why we used them on our Richmond re-roof. Concrete tiles such as the Redland range cost less, come in a wide choice of profiles and colours and perform very well, which is why we fitted Redland 49 tiles in brown and red on our Surbiton re-roof. We will show you both options against your home before you decide.
The tiles come off, the old felt and battens underneath are stripped away, and new felt and new treated battens are fixed before the tiles go back on. The felt is the waterproof backup layer and the battens are what every tile hangs on, so renewing them is what makes a re-roof last. Our Richmond clay tile job was a full re-felt and re-batten.
Repair when the damage is local: a few slipped, cracked or frost-damaged tiles on an otherwise sound roof. Re-tile when tiles are failing across the whole roof, the felt beneath has perished or the battens are rotten, because at that point each repair just moves the problem along. We inspect free and give you the honest answer in writing.
Usually, yes. Common concrete profiles like the Redland 49 are still made, and for older clay tiles we can source reclaimed units so a repair blends in rather than standing out as a patch.
Yes. All our tiled roof work, from single tile replacements to full re-roofs, is covered by our company workmanship guarantee and we are fully insured.
