High Quality Roof Tiles in Bedfordshire
High Quality Roof Tiles
High quality roof tiles for your property from Heritage Clay Tiles Ltd
When you consider that there are so many different types of roof tiles available today, it can be a mind numbing exercise trying to decide which roof tile is best for you. Do you opt for the concrete roof tiles, clay roof tiles, or the durable, but not that aesthetically appealing metal tiles? If money is not your first consideration, you may even want to splash out on natural slate roof tiles. Whatever you decide, you will want to choose a high quality roof tile, as you will want them to be durable and last a long time.
Low and high quality roof tiles are worlds apart. High quality roof tiles offer many advantages over cheap, low quality roof tiles, including durability, longevity, aesthetics, ease of installation, and so much more. All you need to do is to decide which option is best for your building project and make your purchase based on a well informed decision.
Consider your roof design and structure
The design and pitch of your roof structure will have a major impact on the roof tile options you have. If the pitch is very low, then some types of tile simply will not be suitable for installation. Instead, you will need to specifically search for practical tile designs purposely suited for low pitch roof fittings. Again, choosing high quality roof tiles will save you time and money in the long term.
The appearance of your high quality roof tiles from Heritage Clay Tiles Ltd
Everyone wants their property to look its best, and high quality roof tiles can help you achieve just that. When considering each roof tile, think about the finish it will create for your property. If your home is more traditional with classical or period features, a sleek modern slate or lightweight roof tile may stick out like a sore thumb. Strangely, traditional high quality roof tiles can look amazing on newer properties, but not so much the other way round.
Pick a shade of high quality roof tiles that coordinates well with your property's external colour scheme and doesn't clash with the existing brickwork. Also, always try to take into account the appearance of neighbouring properties and how well your new tiled roof will fit into the overall look of your local area. Should you go too far away from the neighbouring properties in look and style, your property can and probably will look out of place, and the local authority may even order you to rectify the situation. The latter, is not a scenario you will want to entertain when you have spent a good deal of money on high quality roof tiles and their installation.
High quality roof tiles and your budget
Whether you want to spend big on high quality roof tiles or a cheaper option, planning out a project budget is the best way of narrowing down which type of roof tile may be best suited to your price-range. Make sure you keep in mind any additional costs such as installation, transportation, and maintenance as well as just the initial cost of the roof tiles themselves.
High quality roof tiles from Heritage Clay Tiles Ltd tend to be more durable
Remember that roof tiles are going to be exposed to the harshest of exterior conditions, so it's vitally important that the kind you pick are tough enough to last. Cheap, budget roof tiles will never be as durable as high quality roof tiles.
High quality roof tiles manufactured from clay are well known for their impressive strength and durability. The hard-wearing structure of clay is built to withstand strong winds, heavy hail and rain, extreme temperatures and even fire. In fact, high quality roof tiles made from clay are so hard-wearing that even those manufactured hundreds of years ago are still being found to this day.
High quality roof tiles made from natural slate are another very popular choice in terms resilience and durability. Slate is actually one of the most durable natural roofing materials available on the market. It can withstand all kinds of weather extremes, maintaining structural integrity when exposed to very high winds, searing hot temperatures, and icy hail and heavy rain. The natural properties of high quality roof tiles made from slate also make your roof fire proof.
High quality roof tiles from Heritage Clay Tiles Ltd last the longest
If you want your roof structure to enjoy a long service life, it's important to pick out a roof tile with a good lifespan.
High quality roof tiles made from clay and concrete are two of the longest lasting roof tile materials available to buy. With a potential life expectancy of over a century, many clay and concrete roof tiles even outlive the property they've been installed on, which is why you often see them in salvage yards after they have been reclaimed.
Slate tiles are another good choice in terms of longevity. Although the lifespan of the tiles will depend on quality, care and initial installation, many slates can last anywhere from sixty to over one hundred and fifty years.
So, if you are in the market for a new roof, have a think about what look and feel you are looking for and always choose a high quality roof tile to improve the look of your property.
A little information about Bedfordshire
Bedfordshire is a favourite destination for aircraft enthusiasts
The Shuttleworth Collection is a working aeronautical and automotive collection located at the Old Warden Aerodrome, Old Warden in Bedfordshire.
History of the Bedfordshire collection
The impressive collection was founded in 1928 by aviator Richard Ormonde Shuttleworth. The collection and works we see today were borne out of tragedy, for while flying a Fairey Battle at night on 2 August 1940, Shuttleworth fatally crashed. His mother, in 1944, formed the Richard Ormonde Shuttleworth Remembrance Trust for the teaching of the science and practice of aviation and of afforestation and agriculture.
A wonderful collection in Bedfordshire
Restoration and maintenance work is carried out by a staff of twelve full-time and many volunteer engineers. These volunteers are all members of the 3,000-strong Shuttleworth Veteran Aeroplane Society. Without these dedicated engineering enthusiasts, the preservation and restoration of this fantastic, historical collection would be lost forever.
As well as the aircraft, the Bedfordshire collection houses a number of vintage and veteran cars. Events include model-flying days, and once a year, there is a special flying day for schools in the area.
The Shuttleworth Collection isn't just a museum one can visit to see old aircraft. The engineers at the Bedfordshire site work tirelessly to restore as many aircraft as possible to flying condition, in line with the founder's original intention. There are typically about ten air shows per year, including evening displays and an annual Flying Proms event.
The Edwardian aircraft at the Bedfordshire collection
Some of the most interesting aircraft in the Bedfordshire collection are the five Edwardian aeroplanes, of which one is the oldest British aeroplane still in flying condition. The oldest, with British civil registration G-AANG, is the Bleriot XI which dates back to 1909; this aircraft still boasts its original engine. This particular flying machine was completed six years after the Wright brothers' aircraft and remains the world's oldest airworthy aeroplane, the next oldest being, at only three weeks newer by date of manufacture; the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome's own restored original Bleriot XI in the United States of America.
Marvel at the Bedfordshire collection
Should you want a memorable day out and love vintage aircraft and cars, the Bedfordshire collection really is worth a visit. Why not put a date in your diary to visit soon?
