Roofers in Rochester

Inside the conservation area, Rochester's High Street is made up mostly of Georgian and Victorian buildings with seventeenth-century survivals among them, and getting on for two hundred listed buildings stand within a very small area. Roofs in that setting are handmade clay tile, peg tile and natural slate over old, uneven timber, frequently hidden behind parapets or laid at pitches no modern covering is rated for. Matching materials matters here for consent as much as for appearance, and a substitute shows from the street. Move a few roads out and this becomes an ordinary Medway town of Victorian terraces and later suburban housing, where concrete tile, ridge bedding and shared chimney stacks are the routine work. Listed and conservation properties are identified before a scope is agreed. Our approved roofers cover Rochester, Strood and the rest of Medway.
