Heritage Roofing Specialists You Can Trust
Roofing work on historic properties is very different from standard domestic roofing. Materials, detailing and installation methods must be sympathetic to the building, while still providing long-term protection from the elements.
​
Our team understands the complexities involved in heritage roofing and takes the time to assess each property properly before recommending a solution. Whether the project involves repairs, partial replacement or a full heritage re-roof, we work carefully and responsibly at every stage.
Listed Building & Conservation Roofing
We regularly carry out roofing work on listed and conservation properties across Staffordshire and Derbyshire. Where required, we use traditional materials such as slate, clay tiles and leadwork, along with conservation-appropriate techniques.
​
Our experience allows us to work confidently on buildings where appearance, detail and preservation are just as important as durability and performance.
Our Heritage Roofing Approach
1. Detailed Assessment
We begin with a thorough inspection of the existing roof, structure and materials, identifying issues and determining the most appropriate solution.
2. Honest Advice & Clear Quotation
You’ll receive clear recommendations and a transparent quotation, with advice tailored to the building’s age, condition and requirements.
3. Traditional Craftsmanship
Where heritage requirements apply, we use traditional methods and materials to maintain the building’s character while ensuring modern performance standards are met.
4. Careful, Professional Installation
All work is carried out by experienced roofers who understand the importance of detail, safety and respect for historic properties.
