ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT

TILED ROOFS SHEFFORD, BEDFORDSHIRE

CONCRETE | CLAY | SLATE ROOF TILES

In the UK, tiled roofs are widely embraced as one of the top choices. Recognised for their robustness and enduring nature, they are perfectly suited for the diverse weather we experience throughout the year.

There are many different types of tiles available, including:

Concrete, Slate, Clay, Metal, Low Pitch Roof Tiles, Plastic Tiles, Plain Tiles, Pantile Tiles, Double Roman Tiles, Ridge Tiles, Hip Tiles, Bonnet Tiles, 

Tiles come in different colours and sizes, and a style is typically available to suit any property. Concrete tiles are the most popular, and clay is a close second. They both have a very long lifespan, potentially in excess of 100 years.

The average standard roof tile size is 265x165mm, and with a batten gauge of 100mm, it takes approximately 60 tiles to cover a Metre Squared. This is useful to know when working out materials required for installation or repairs.

Roof tiles require minimum maintenance; however, if you notice a missing roof tile, it is essential to act sooner rather than later to prevent any further damage from occurring. The same applies to Ridge Tiles and Hip or Bonnet Tiles; if you notice one is loose or missing, it is essential to replace it as soon as possible.
