— Choosing your roof covering
Clay or concrete:
what is the difference?
Concrete tiles are widely used on Shropshire homes because they are robust, versatile and available in many profiles. They can deliver the appearance of traditional plain tiles or larger interlocking tiles while keeping installation efficient.
Clay tiles offer rich natural colour and an appearance that weathers attractively. They are often chosen for period properties, conservation-minded work and homes where matching the character of neighbouring roofs matters.
We assess pitch, exposure, structure and appearance before recommending a product. The correct fixing specification is just as important as the tile itself, particularly on exposed roof slopes.
