Roofers in Tunbridge Wells

Tunbridge Wells is full of tall Victorian villas with slate, lead and big chimneys. Exactly the kind of roofs we like.

Roofing in Tunbridge Wells

Royal Tunbridge Wells grew as a spa town, and much of it was built in the Regency and Victorian periods. That leaves a town of large brick and stucco villas, terraces and semis with Welsh slate roofs, ornate chimneys and plenty of lead.

Tall buildings and close neighbours make access a big part of the job. We plan scaffolding carefully and keep you informed about what's needed and why.

Regency and Victorian villas with slate roofs and lead valleys, stucco-fronted terraces with parapet gutters hidden behind the front wall, and later suburbs with clay and concrete tiles. Many properties are in conservation areas.

Local knowledge

Tunbridge Wells roofs

01

Hidden parapet gutters

Lead or asphalt gutters behind parapet walls block and split, sending water straight into the house. They need checking regularly.

02

Tall chimney stacks

Stacks on three-storey houses suffer from weathering and leaning. We assess whether repointing, partial rebuild or full rebuild is needed.

03

Re-slating

Original slates often outlast their nails. Re-slating with sound reclaimed or new slate keeps the character of the roof.
