Homeowners in Hythe choose us for our fast service, tidy workmanship and unbeatable customer care. We treat every home like it is our own and it shows in our results.
Hythe runs from the seafront up the hill, so two roofs a few streets apart can sit in genuinely different exposure. We specify for the one we are standing on.
A lot of our Hythe work is leadwork and chimneys, because the older stock here has plenty of both and they are the parts that fail first.
Two roofs, half an hour apart, two specifications
Sheltered, inland Ashford
Galvanised fixings
Perfectly sound here, and cheaper. Spending more would be spending for the sake of it.
Exposed, Lydd and Dymchurch
Stainless fixings
Quoted as standard rather than as an upgrade, because the cheaper option does not survive out here.
Salt off the Channel corrodes ferrous metal far faster than ordinary damp air. We have taken tiles off roofs in Hythe after nothing more than a breezy week, purely because the nails holding them had rusted through. That is a specification failure, not a tile failure.
If a roofer quotes the same specification for a Lydd bungalow as for a sheltered terrace in town, they either do not know the difference or have not priced for it.
The other half of the Hythe work. A stack is the most exposed masonry on any roof, warmed from the inside while everything around it stays cold, and here it takes salt as well.

Ken was very helpful, knowledgeable and informative. He made sure we understood what didn't need work doing as well as what did, which is refreshingly honest and good to hear. Thank you.

I got Owen round to quote for some missing roof tiles. The work was completed the next day and all left clean and tidy. Very happy with the work done

Highly recommended , Very professional company, we got Kenny in through a recommendation, he gave us a reasonable price to re-roof our house. Everything was clean and tidy from start to finish and the outcome was beyond our expectations. Would definitely use again for our up and coming extension.
