Roofers in Appledore
On the edge of Romney Marsh, Appledore's roofs face open skies and strong winds off the flat land.
Roofing in Appledore
Appledore sits where the high ground drops to Romney Marsh, with the Royal Military Canal running below the village. Its wide main street of brick and timber-framed houses is a short drive from Tenterden via Reading Street.
There's little shelter from the marsh, so storm damage is a regular reason we're called out: lifted tiles, broken ridges and lead that has been peeled back by the wind.
A broad main street of period brick and timber-framed houses under clay tiles, with outlying farms and cottages on the marsh edge. Open exposure to wind makes fixings, ridges and leadwork the key weak points.
Local knowledge
Roofing by the marsh
01
Storm damage
Tiles and ridges lifted by gales. We make it watertight first, then carry out a proper repair.
02
Mechanical fixing
On exposed roofs, extra nailing and clipping of tiles is often worth doing during repairs or re-roofing.
03
Lead that's lifted
Wind can peel back poorly fixed flashings. Lead needs to be properly chased in and clipped to stay put.
