Littlebourne is a village on the Little Stour east of Canterbury, and that setting shapes the ridge tiles work we are called out for. The housing here is largely period cottages and Victorian terraces, 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 Littlebourne job starts with a free survey and a written fixed-price quote, with no call-out fee.
Most Littlebourne 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.
Littlebourne’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 Littlebourne high street, Littlebourne’s older terraces where space is tight.
Littlebourne sits as a Nailbourne valley village with thatched and peg-tiled cottages around the green, Victorian estate-worker terraces, and post-war bungalows and houses along the main road. For ridge tile replacement, that context matters — Loose and slipped ridge tiles are a leading Littlebourne storm-damage call. We re-bed in flexible mortar or convert to a mechanically-fixed dry-ridge system that needs no future maintenance.
For Littlebourne, the key roofing reality is that The Nailbourne winterbourne raises ground humidity, accelerating moss on shaded slopes. The historic cottages need reclaimed peg tile and lime mortar; some retain thatch-to-tile conversions needing careful detailing. We know the streets — The Hill, Nargate Street, Court Hill, Jubilee Road among them — where it bites hardest, and adjust our ridge tile replacement accordingly. Historic cottages need reclaimed peg tile; shaded slopes need moss treatment.
