Thanington is a south-western Canterbury district along the Stour, and that setting shapes the ridge tiles work we are called out for. The housing here is largely period cottages and modern estate housing, so cracked ridge mortar and slipped tiles on the terraces 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 Thanington job starts with a free survey and a written fixed-price quote, with no call-out fee.
Most Thanington 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.
Thanington’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 Thanington high street, Thanington’s older terraces where space is tight.
Work on Thanington roofs starts with the building stock: Victorian terraces along the Ashford Road, large post-war council-built estates, and newer development toward Thanington Without, spread across a Stour-side suburb. Loose and slipped ridge tiles are a leading Thanington storm-damage call. We re-bed in flexible mortar or convert to a mechanically-fixed dry-ridge system that needs no future maintenance.
For Thanington, the key roofing reality is that The post-war estate housing dominates the workload and is squarely at the nail-sickness stage, with concrete tiles slipping across whole slopes. Low Stour-side plots face damp and gutter overflow. We know the streets — Ashford Road, Cockering Road, Milton Manor, Tonford Lane among them — where it bites hardest, and adjust our ridge tile replacement accordingly. Post-war estate roofs commonly need full re-fixing or re-roofing.
