Roofing by property type
Roofs age differently depending on when they were built. Pick your property type for the specific issues we see locally, indicative cost context and what to expect from a survey.
Victorian Terrace
Victorian terraces share party walls, parapet detailing and a small front-bay roof that quietly causes most of the leaks we see on stock from this era.

Edwardian semis stepped up roof scale — bigger bays, deeper eaves and ornate clay-tile detailing that age better than slate but punish poor maintenance.

1930s semis are the largest single block of housing on our patch — most jobs we quote are on this stock, so we know exactly where they age.

Post-war semis used cheaper materials under pressure — concrete tile, mineral felt and softwood detailing that's now well past its design life.

Modern detached homes have steeper, more complex roofs — multiple hips, valleys and dormer cheeks that look great but multiply the failure points.

Bungalows put a lot of roof area on a small footprint — leaks travel further before they show, and ventilation is the recurring weak point.
