Ridge Repointing in Peterlee
Mortar-bedded ridges crack, moss lifts them, and eventually a tile slips onto the drive. Repointing buys another few years; a dry-ridge conversion buys 30. We'll quote both so you can choose on lifetime cost. We're regularly on roofs close to the A19, out around NETPark, through Horden and Easington Colliery.
- Full ridge strip and re-bed option
- Dry-ridge conversion option (BS 5534)
- Hip ridges included where present
- Cracked ridge tiles replaced
- Proper vented ridge on conversion
Peterlee context
Peterlee was built in one big planned wave, so a lot of its roofs are reaching the end of their original design life together. Insurance-related storm repairs in Horden and Easington also keep us busy. Regular access via A19 and A181. We're often out around NETPark.
Housing stock we usually work on here
1950s new-town housing across the centre, with surrounding ex-colliery villages of brick terraces.
