Much of our Essex work is barn conversions: Old Dairy Farm in VM Zinc, North End Barns, and a group of barns around Great Dunmow and Stebbing in RHEINZINK Graphite-grey. We cross the Thames from our Dartford base to work across the county.
Barn conversions in Essex
North and west Essex have a great many timber-framed barns and farm buildings, and converting them into homes is where standing seam zinc does its best work. A barn's long, unbroken roof planes and simple forms suit metal, and graphite or dark grey zinc keeps the agricultural character that planners and owners usually want to preserve.
Questions about roofing in Essex
Do you work across all of Essex?
Yes. Our Essex projects so far are mostly in the north and west of the county, around Great Dunmow and Stebbing, but we work throughout Essex.
Which zinc suits a barn conversion?
Darker pre-weathered zincs, such as RHEINZINK Graphite-grey or VM Anthra-Zinc, are popular because they echo traditional dark barn roofs. We can bring samples to site.
