Drayton is a suburb of Cosham sharing the same 1930s semi-detached housing profile. Concrete plain tiles on 1930s stock, now approaching 90 years — among the oldest concrete tile roofs in the Portsmouth area.
Drayton sits just at the northern edge of Portsea Island before the creek crossing. The creek creates a humidity corridor that affects northern edge properties. Similar frost profile to Cosham.
1930s concrete plain tile erosion — the dominant issue. Many Drayton properties are on their second set of concrete tiles approaching the decision point for a third re-roof. Ridge mortar failure. Moss growth from creek humidity.
Drayton's concentration of some of the oldest concrete tile roofs in the Portsmouth area means we regularly advise on the re-roof versus continued repair question. The honest answer for most 1930s Drayton properties is that they are at or past the economic repair threshold.
"1930s semi in Drayton — on our second concrete tile roof and tiles were eroding again. Portsmouth Roofing recommended modern concrete interlocking as the final answer. Exactly right."
"Ridge mortar replacement — used the right mortar mix for the age of the property."
