Roofers in Smarden
One of Kent's prettiest villages, full of timber-framed houses that need roofing done properly.
Roofing in Smarden
Smarden's older streets are packed with timber-framed and weatherboarded houses, most of them roofed in handmade clay peg tile. These roofs reward careful work: matching tile, lime mortar where it belongs, and leadwork chased in rather than stuck on.
We're only a few minutes away in Tenterden, so Smarden jobs are easy for us to look at quickly. That matters when a slipped tile turns into a damp ceiling.
Much of Smarden is a conservation area with a high proportion of listed buildings. Peg tile dominates, with some Welsh slate on later houses, tile-hung upper floors and tall brick chimney stacks throughout the village.
Local knowledge
Roofing Smarden's older houses
01
Peg tile matching
Handmade tiles vary in size and colour. We source reclaimed or handmade replacements so repairs blend in.
02
Listed building care
Where a house is listed, materials and methods usually need to match what's there. We'll talk you through what that means before work starts.
03
Tile-hung walls
Vertical tiling on upper floors weathers like a roof. Slipped or rotting hung tiles are a common source of damp in the village.
