Dreadnought Plain Brown Antique Sandfaced Gable

Prepared by Dreadnought Tiles, well-known for their natural clay tiles, the Dreadnought Plain Brown Antique Sandfaced Gable tiles offer a touch of history and timeless elegance for your roofing project. These tiles are made from Etruria Marl, a naturally occurring clay known for its long-lastingness. The unique burning process in the kiln creates a beautiful "Brown Antique" colour which is a natural blend of rich red, brown, and blue multi-coloured tiles that bring character to any structure. These diverse hues which are achieved through careful control of the burning process cannot be duplicated artificially. These amazing tiles exude a classic touch and are sure to leave a lasting impression.  

 

Each tile features a granulated and sandy surface for a more appealing look. This coarse texture improved traction on the roof. These tiles are excellent for gable ends, the triangular sections at the peak of your sloped roof. Their grainy profile perfectly blends with the main roof plane and creates a more refined finish.

 

Made from Etruria Marl clay, these roof tiles are incredibly strong and weather-resistant. With a minimum pitch degree of 35, they are sure to provide optimal water drainage and protection for your home for generations to come.
