Bekesbourne is a small Nailbourne-valley village near Howletts, and that setting shapes the ridge tiles work we are called out for. The housing here is largely period brick-and-tile cottages and farmhouses, so wind-lifted ridge tiles and washed-out mortar bedding is what we handle most.
We re-bed and re-point the ridge and hip tiles in matched mortar, or fit a mechanically-fixed dry-ridge system, working with matched ridge tiles and the right mortar, or a dry-fix system. Every Bekesbourne job starts with a free survey and a written fixed-price quote, with no call-out fee.
Most Bekesbourne roofs are reached from a tower or roof ladder; scaffold is quoted where a job needs safe standing time at height. Scaffold is specified for: re-roofs, chimney and valley work, and anything beyond a day at height - always itemised in your written quote, never a hidden extra, and we arrange it.
Bekesbourne’s cottages, terraces and village lanes have limited parking, so scaffold lorry access and skip placement are arranged ahead of the work. Pavement scaffold and skip permits go through Canterbury City Council; allow a few working days on streets like Bekesbourne high street, Bekesbourne’s older terraces where space is tight.
Work on Bekesbourne roofs starts with the building stock: scattered period farmhouses and cottages, a cluster of listed buildings near the church and station, and occasional modern infill, spread across a small Stour valley village. Loose and slipped ridge tiles are a leading Bekesbourne storm-damage call. We re-bed in flexible mortar or convert to a mechanically-fixed dry-ridge system that needs no future maintenance.
For Bekesbourne, the key roofing reality is that A high proportion of period and listed property means almost all work is conservation-led: matched Kentish plain clay tile, lime mortar bedding, and lead flashing rather than modern substitutes. Rural tree cover blocks valleys. We know the streets — Bekesbourne Lane, Aerodrome Road, School Lane, Church Lane among them — where it bites hardest, and adjust our ridge tile replacement accordingly. Listed and period stock requires reclaimed tile, lime mortar and consent.
