We offer two types of roof tiles Manor range and Developer range.
Our finest Manor range has greater colour and much deeper texture, these tiles immediately have the appearance of tiles that have been in place for years.
Developer range is a slightly smoother and less textured finish. The Developer range gives a more contemporary feel to any new roof and in the darker shades are perfect to match with old weathered clay tiles for refurbishment projects.
Our Manor range of handmade clay roof tiles gives a stunning look and effect that has stood the test of time for centuries.
Each tile has its own unique style – it has variations in colour, texture and shape that cannot be replicated in any other way. Each tile is lightly sanded to further add to its charm.
The splendour of clay tiles is that they have a beauty that will elegantly weather and mature slowly with age.
Manor handmade clay tiles are the perfect choice for those undertaking a sensitive project or development where it is essential that the building blends in perfectly with its surroundings.
All our roof tiles are tested with our in house laboratory facility to meet current British standards – BS EN 538 Flexural strength, BS EN 539-1 Impermeability & BS EN 539-2 Frost resistance, we then further test them independently with Das Keramik Institut, a global expert in material testing and analysis.

The code of practice for tiling and slating also recommends that clay tiles should be mixed from three pallets when being loaded out.
