 A family tradition
"From tiny Acorns" Albert Edward Wills would have been proud to know that his roofing tradition he began circa 1910 in Charing Heath would to be passed down three generations to become Ashford and Cranbrook Roofing Partnership.
The ancient art of Keg peg tiling as we know it, was passed down from Albert to Derek. Derek Wills has followed on from his father as have his sons followed on from him.
The family craft of Kent peg tiling is a proud heritage that will continue to be entrusted to the next generation for decades to come.
 Derek Wills took the mantle from his father with pride and has passed his knowledge onto many an apprentice in his time.
He has furthered the company strengths by working for many years with Marley roof tiles on sites around the country learning the different art of new build roofing.
