Serving Cheltenham

Cheltenham is one of the main towns we cover from our base in nearby Gloucester. We work across the town, from the Regency streets around the centre and Montpellier to Charlton Kings, Leckhampton, Prestbury, Up Hatherley, Hatherley and Bishop's Cleeve.

Quotes and response

Every job in Cheltenham starts with a free survey, and we aim to send your fixed-price quote within a day of the visit. If you have an urgent leak, emergency repairs are available Monday to Saturday up to around 7pm; call us and we'll tell you honestly how soon we can get to you.

Cheltenham properties

Cheltenham is known for its Regency architecture: tall stuccoed terraces and villas, many with shallow-pitched slate roofs hidden behind parapets, plus valleys, box gutters and plenty of lead detailing. Alongside these you'll find Victorian and Edwardian houses, inter-war semis and modern estates on the edges of town.

What Cheltenham homes need most

In Cheltenham we're often asked about lead work and flashings, chimney repointing and flashing, slipped slates on older roofs, and flat roof replacements on rear extensions and garages. Roofline and guttering replacements are also common on post-war and newer homes.

Local roofing issues

Common Roof Problemsin Cheltenham

Regency roofs behind parapets

Many Regency buildings have roofs hidden behind parapet walls, draining through valleys and box gutters. When lead in these areas splits or outlets block, water can sit and find its way inside, often long before anyone sees a problem from the street.

Lead and flashings

Cheltenham's older roofs rely heavily on lead: flashings, valleys, parapet gutters and weatherings. Lead that has been in place for decades can crack and lift, and replacing it properly is key to keeping these properties dry.

Chimney stacks

Tall chimney stacks are a feature of the town's period homes. Exposed on every side, their mortar weathers and their flashings fail. We carry out chimney repointing and flashing, not rebuilds.

Extensions and newer housing

Flat-roofed extensions behind period homes and modern estates on the edges of town bring their own needs, from EPDM flat roofs to uPVC fascias, soffits and guttering.

Warning signs

Signs Your RoofNeeds Attention

Most roof problems in Cheltenham give you a warning before they become expensive. If you spot any of these, book a free survey sooner rather than later.

  • Damp patches or staining on ceilings, especially upstairs or below chimneys.
  • Daylight or drips visible in the loft after rain.
  • Slipped, cracked or missing tiles and slates, or pieces in the garden or gutters.
  • Crumbling mortar on ridges, verges or chimney stacks.
  • Lead flashings that look lifted, split or creased.
  • Gutters overflowing in heavy rain, or green staining on walls below them.
  • Blistered, split or ponding flat roofs on garages and extensions.
  • Flaking, soft or rotten timber fascias and soffits.
Roof care

Looking After YourCheltenham Roof

After storms: take a look from the ground for missing tiles, slipped ridges or lifted lead. Small storm damage is quick to fix but quickly gets worse if wind can get underneath.

In autumn: leaves and moss block gutters and valleys. Clear gutters let rainwater drain away instead of soaking your walls.

Through winter: frost gets into cracked mortar and porous tiles. Keep an eye on ceilings and the loft after cold, wet spells.

Before you sell or extend: a sound roof protects your investment. If you're planning work on your Cheltenham home, it's worth having the roof checked at the same time.

Don't climb onto the roof yourself; working at height is dangerous. If something doesn't look right, call us for a free survey.
