Our core business is the preservation and protection of listed, period and historic building roofing using traditional techniques and methods of working. We also advocate the use of hydraulic lime mortar wherever possible, as keeping the character and integrity of old buildings is the ethos on which we do our business.

We were instructed by Clague Architects to replace the south elevation of the roof of St Stephen Chapel at St Dunstan's Church in Cranbrook.
Tenterden Roofing was commissioned to refurbish the roof of Kingsgate Cottage, Rolvenden Layne, Cranbrook in Kent.
There were problems with damp penetration between the vertical tiling and chimney stack plus some shoddy quality work to alter.
Tenterden Roofing was approached on recommendation regarding Thorn Oast, Marden Thorn, Tonbridge in Kent.
The crux of the problem was the inadequate fixing of the Kent Peg tiles to the square kiln.

The crux of the problem was the inadequate fixing of the Kent Peg tiles to the square kiln.
As a result there was considerable tile slippage that had become dangerous, especially in strong winds.
Image 1 in gallery - Here we have the removal of the Kent Peg tiles, that were only hung on the battens.
Underneath is the old non breathable 70's bitumen based felt.
It was also noticed that there was 'sweating' going on due to a build up of moisture in the structure, and inadequate ventilation.
