The detached house with its tiled roof and chimneys

Clay plain-tile re-roof on a detached house

Detached house, Cheltenham area

Representative showcase — photography of comparable work, not a Skyline customer's roof.

A 1930s detached house re-roofed in machine-made clay plain tiles to match the original, with new underlay, battens, ventilation, three chimneys re-flashed and two valleys re-leaded.

The job

The original clay tiles had delaminated with frost across the north slopes. Full strip, new underlay and battens, re-tiled in a matching red sand-faced clay plain tile.

  • Breathable underlay, treated battens, eaves and ridge ventilation
