Re-Roofing in Tunbridge Wells
Tall Victorian villas with slate and hidden parapet gutters call for careful, properly planned re-roofing.
Re-Roofing in Tunbridge Wells
Tunbridge Wells grew largely through the Regency and Victorian periods, which left the town full of tall brick and stucco villas, terraces and semis roofed in Welsh slate, often with hidden parapet gutters and ornate chimneys built into the design. When a roof here reaches the end of its life, re-roofing has to account for all of that detail, not just the main slopes.
It's further from Tenterden than most of our work, so for Tunbridge Wells jobs we're upfront that timing depends on our existing workload. We still take on re-roofing projects in the town; we just won't pretend it's as quick for us to reach as somewhere closer to home.
Regency and Victorian villas with slate roofs and lead valleys, stucco-fronted terraces with parapet gutters hidden behind the front wall, and later suburbs in clay or concrete tile. Many properties sit within conservation areas, and tall buildings with close neighbours make scaffolding and access a significant part of planning the job.
Local knowledge
Re-roofing in Tunbridge Wells
01
Hidden parapet gutters
A re-roof is a sensible point to renew parapet gutters hidden behind the front wall, since they're a common source of hidden leaks.
02
Scaffolding for tall buildings
Three-storey villas with close neighbours need careful access planning, which we sort out before work begins.
03
Matching slate to a conservation area property
Where a property sits in a conservation area, we source slate to match and keep the roofline as it was.
