Dreadnought Tiles is a leading, and award winning, manufacturer of clay roof tiles and ornamental roof components. The company was established in 1805 and forms part of the Hinton Perry & Davenhill family business, together with Ketley Brick. Over the company’s 200 year history their hallmark of success has been derived from their consistent belief in using the strongest clay, combined with a traditional manufacturing process and a management philosophy of embracing innovation & always looking to the future.

The tile manufacturer offers three core ranges (handmade, rustic and machine made tiles), with colours ranging from reds & browns through to blues & brindles. They create the finest quality clay roof tiles and with their wealth of experience they can also match or create ornamental tiles, ornamental ridges, finials and fittings. Products in the Dreadnought Tiles range have received an A+ rating for their sustainability and are recognised for their superior aesthetic. This is created naturally, by careful control of the kiln atmosphere, rather than using stains or pigments.

Dreadnought tiles are equally suited to both contemporary and heritage projects and have been used on a wide range of buildings across the UK as well as internationally. These include self-build homes, churches, building restorations and manor houses. The business has recently received two UK Roofing Awards for a self-build project at Graven Hill, which featured on Grand Designs, as well as a heritage project which involved reroofing an old listed church.
