Charlton Kings is one of Cheltenham's largest suburbs, stretching up the Cotswold slopes south-east of the town centre. Victorian terraces and detached properties along School Road and Cirencester Road, 1930s semis across the interior grid, and post-war housing towards the escarpment — it covers a wide range of housing eras and we work across all of them.

Charlton Kings spans several eras — an old stone village core, Victorian and Edwardian villas, 1930s semis and modern estates — so the right roofing answer genuinely depends on which part and period your home belongs to.
When you might not need major work: With such varied stock, the honest answer in Charlton Kings ranges from a simple repair to a re-roof depending on the property — we survey each roof on its own terms rather than assuming. See our repair-or-replace guide.
The 1930s semi-detached properties that make up a large proportion of Charlton Kings' residential stock were originally roofed in concrete plain tiles — many of which remain in place, now 80–90 years old and increasingly subject to nail fatigue. A common presentation is widespread tile movement on the front and rear slopes following any significant storm, with individual tiles failing week by week through a hard winter.
Victorian and Edwardian properties along Cirencester Road and School Road typically present with lead valley failures and chimney flashing issues. The proximity to the Chelt valley creates elevated humidity in the lower streets that accelerates lead oxidation and mortar weathering. Flat roof extensions from the 1970s and 80s are widespread across the suburb and most are on their second covering or approaching end of life.
Nail sickness on 1930s concrete tiles across the interior streets is the dominant repair pattern. Lead valley and flashing failures on Victorian stock along the main roads. Flat roof replacements on 1970s–80s extensions are a significant proportion of the work we carry out in Charlton Kings each year.
We're based in Cheltenham and cover all of Gloucestershire. All nearby towns are within our standard service area.
Most Charlton Kings roofing is worked from a tower or roof ladder; scaffold is specified only where a job needs safe standing time at height, and we arrange it. Scaffold is specified for: re-roofs, chimney and valley work, or anything beyond a day at height - always itemised in your written quote, never a hidden extra, and we arrange it.
Charlton Kings mixes an old village core with Victorian, 1930s and modern housing, so access ranges from tight lanes near the church to open modern plots; Cheltenham Borough Council handles permits on the busier through-roads. Pavement scaffold and skip permits go through Cheltenham Borough Council; allow a few working days on streets like Church Street, Cirencester Road, London Road where space is tight.

"Full flat roof on our rear kitchen extension in GRP. Previous felt roof had been patched twice already. GRP finish is excellent and the price was exactly as quoted. No issues after the first Cheltenham winter."
"Came to repair the lead valley on our Edwardian terrace. Identified that the back gutter flashing had also failed in the same area — fixed both at once. Thoroughly done, no more ceiling damp."
"Several nail-sick tiles replaced on our 1930s semi before winter. They checked the whole slope while they were up there and re-nailed three more loose ones they found. Sensible approach."
