Gunn Roofing Co specialises in traditional clay tile roofing, delivering roofs that combine timeless aesthetics with exceptional durability. Whether working on a period property, heritage building or high-end new-build home, we take great pride in producing roofs that enhance the character, value and longevity of the property beneath them.

Clay tiles have been used for centuries and remain one of the most attractive and prestigious roofing materials available. Their natural variation, rich colour and enduring appeal make them ideally suited to both historic buildings and modern homes seeking a more authentic and refined finish.

Our work includes:

  • Clay plain tile roofing
  • Handmade and machine-made clay tile installations
  • New-build traditional roofing
  • Heritage and conservation roofing
  • Bonnet hips and decorative detailing

  • Decorative tile hanging and vertical tiling
  • Dormer and gable tile hanging
  • Traditional ridge and verge detailing
  • Roof refurbishment and restoration

 

A recent example of our work can be seen on a striking Tudor-style property in Shenfield, where we completed a comprehensive clay tile reroof incorporating decorative tile hanging, traditional detailing and extensive roof refurbishment works. Particular attention was paid to preserving the character of the property while delivering a roof built to modern standards and designed to provide decades of reliable performance.

Every clay tile roof is completed with meticulous attention to detail, from the initial setting out of the roof through to the finishing details that define a truly exceptional installation. Our focus is always on quality, craftsmanship and creating roofs that not only perform for generations but also enhance the architectural character of the property.

HOW WE WORK

  • Jimmy and his team completed two jobs for me, the tiled roof repair was renewing some tiles and cement at the very top of my roof. The other was a total renewal of my flat roof. Both of the jobs were completed to a high standard. Jimmy and his team were very friendly and always kept me informed and were always on time. Very happy with the work and will definitely be recommending.
  • The hand finishing and fine detailed work was carried out to the highest standards . They have pride in their profession and it shows.
  • Firstly, communication and reliability were excellent. The work was completed to a very high standard and very reasonably priced. I would not hesitate to recommend Jimmy to anyone - a first class job, thank you!
  • Jimmy and Lewis recently completed our roof in Westcliff. It was a entire roof refurb, new felt, battern, tiles etc. Jimmy was very professional from the get go, popping round a couple of times and calling us to ensure we was aware of the process + tying in with the carpenter we had who was doing building works to the dormer. We’ve had terrible weather and rain since the works started and they have come round on there weekends to get the job finished for us. We are both so pleased with the quality of works done and will be recommending them to anyone needing a roof or repair!
  • Jimmy was professional, reliable and friendly. Jimmy also popped round before the works were due to help stop the rainwater coming any further into the house. He was super efficient and we were really happy with the work carried out. He kept us informed throughout the job. We would highly recommend Jimmy and will book him again for any future jobs we need.
  • I contacted Jimmy and he listened carefully to my requirement to help me with an estimation cost of repair of the roof based on my building survey report as I'm purchasing a house. Jimmy reviewed the report and provided me with an accurate, free estimation quote on time and he answered promptly to all my questions. Jimmy is very professional and I recommend him.
  • Following recent storms I needed replacement roof tiles hip and ridge tiles. These were replaced. Very professional and the work was carried out to a high standard.
