Smoothfaced

Perhaps, the best known and most widely used natural colour produced from Etruria Marl.  Ideal for matching and repairs, the traditional red Smoothfaced single camber tile is widely stocked by roofing merchants throughout areas where clay tiles are established.

This red sandfaced roof complements the bluff and red brickwork.  The large expanse of roof is broken up by the use of 5 bands of ornamental tiles, in alternating courses of club and fishtail tiles.  The roof is topped with two hole ornamental ridges.
