For ridge tiles in Chartham, local character matters: this is a Stour-valley village known for its paper mill, with housing that is largely Victorian terraces and cottages plus village estates, the common job here is wind-lifted ridge tiles and washed-out mortar bedding.
Our approach is simple: re-bed and re-point the ridge and hip tiles in matched mortar, or fit a mechanically-fixed dry-ridge system, using matched ridge tiles and the right mortar, or a dry-fix system. You get a free Chartham survey and a fixed written price up front, and never a call-out fee.
Most Chartham 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.
Chartham’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 Chartham high street, Chartham’s older terraces where space is tight.
Work on Chartham roofs starts with the building stock: flint-and-brick cottages around the green, Victorian terraces built for the paper mill, and 1950s-60s estate housing on the valley sides, spread across a Stour valley village. Loose and slipped ridge tiles are a leading Chartham storm-damage call. We re-bed in flexible mortar or convert to a mechanically-fixed dry-ridge system that needs no future maintenance.
One issue dominates Chartham roofs — Valley-floor humidity from the Stour and the old mill leat accelerates moss and algae on north-facing slopes. The mill terraces have ageing slate, and the 1950s-60s estate roofs are reaching nail-sickness age. It shows up again and again on properties near The Green, Rattington Street, Shalmsford Street, Station Road, and we plan every ridge tile replacement job around it. North-facing valley slopes need moss treatment; mill terraces often need slate re-fixing.
