Exposed ridge-top house roof near Egerton, Kent

Roofers in Egerton

A ridge-top village with views over the Weald, a bit further out but still within our regular area.

Roofing in Egerton

Egerton sits up on the Greensand ridge, giving the village views across the Weald towards Tenterden and beyond. That elevated position means roofs here take a bit more wind than those tucked into the valley villages, and we factor that into how we assess repairs.

It's one of the further villages on our patch, so while we're glad to cover it for repairs, re-roofing and chimney work, we're upfront that for non-urgent jobs the exact timing can depend on what else is scheduled that week.

Brick and tile-hung houses cluster around the village green and church, with farmhouses on the ridge and in the valley below. Older roofs are mostly plain tile, with some slate, and chimneys tend to be substantial given the exposed position.

Local knowledge

What the ridge-top position means

01

Wind exposure

The elevated position catches more wind than sheltered villages, so ridge tiles and verges need regular checking.

02

Substantial chimneys

Chimneys here are often built solidly to cope with the exposed site, and need periodic repointing.

03

Longer journey from Tenterden

It's further out than most of the villages we cover, so timing for routine work depends a little on the day's schedule.

Questions from Egerton homeowners

Is Egerton too far out for you to cover?

No, it's within our area. For non-urgent jobs we're honest that timing depends a little on what else is booked in.

Does the ridge-top position cause more wind damage?

It can, the exposed position means ridge tiles and verges are worth checking more regularly than in sheltered spots.

Can you repoint a large exposed chimney stack?

Yes, repointing and rebuilding stacks built to cope with exposed sites is work we do regularly.
