Winchcombe is one of the most characterful Cotswold market towns — and one of the most demanding for roofing work.

The Cotswold stone tiles used on older Winchcombe buildings are not a homogeneous product — they are split and graded limestone of varying thickness, and they delaminate from frost action over decades. When a Cotswold stone slate needs replacing, matching the size, thickness and colour is important, particularly in the conservation area. We source appropriate reclaimed or new stone to match.
Lead work in Winchcombe is more complex than in modern suburban settings. Period buildings here often have swept valleys, soaker and flashing combinations at multiple dormers, and chimney arrangements that have been repaired and modified over centuries. Getting this work right requires time and experience — we do not rush lead replacement on Cotswold properties.
Cotswold stone slate delamination from frost is the primary repair call on the oldest properties. Lead valley and flashing failure on complex period geometries is the most technically demanding repair type in the town. Ridge and hip mortar failure from frost cycling at this altitude completes the typical repair picture, with material matching required in the conservation area.

"Had the stone slates replaced on the north side of our listed Cotswold property. They sourced matching reclaimed stone, followed the planning requirements and produced work that is indistinguishable from the original. Excellent craftsmanship."
"Lead valley replacement on our period cottage. Old valley had been partially repaired by a previous owner with inappropriate materials that were failing. Proper replacement with heavy gauge dressed lead. Watertight for the first time in years."
"Ridge repointing on our Edwardian house on the edge of town. They used an appropriate lime-based mortar for the age of the building rather than hard cement. Several sections had been cement-pointed before which was causing spalling. Corrected properly."
