ViewNatural multi-coloured red and brown clay roof tiles produced without any artificial stains or pigments. A softer lighter colour, which is popular in the south of the country.
ViewThe multi tile is based on oranges and reds including a few darker tiles.
The key to our flagship colour blend is the natural variations caused by traditional firing methods ensuring that no two tiles are the same colour or shape and the shades merge into each other.
This avoids a contrived look, often seen when single colour tiles are mixed on site.

ViewThis colour has the depth and subtlety of a true blue clay colour which can provide an effective contrast to light coloured stone and brick work. It is deeper and darker than the Blue Brindle and Dark Heather.
Some companies produce a dark tile by the application of a spray on surface stain, however the Dreadnought range of genuine traditional blue clay colours, with their natural shade variations are obtained through the careful control of the kiln atmosphere that converts the iron content of the clay to blue in the manner of Staffordshire Blue bricks. A skilled process established by generations of brick and tile makers which is unique to the Dreadnought Factory.
This tile works equally well for contemporary roofs as it does for heritage roofs. A church reroof with Staffordshire blue smooth tiles won the Best Heritage Roof Award at the 2018 Pitched Roofing Awards and a highly contemporary selfbuild project featuring the same tiles has been awarded Best Small Project at the 2020 Roofing Awards.
This Staffordshire blue clay roof tile offers an alternative to natural slate with the potential to incorporate ornamental elements in the roof.
ViewThis blend is a great mixture, the Chartridge roof tile has an orange base with a burnt natural texture on its face offering you the classic Victorian look
