What should Chalfont St Giles homeowners know?
The village centre around the green and the High Street has timber-framed, brick and flint cottages under handmade clay peg tiles, including the Grade I listed Milton’s Cottage. Surrounding roads have interwar and post-war houses under plain and concrete tiles, and larger houses on the outskirts.
What goes wrong on Chalfont St Giles roofs?
Peg tiles on old cottages. Centuries-old peg-tile roofs slip as pegs decay and tiles spall with frost.
Chimney stacks on cottages. Old stacks lose pointing and flaunching and leak at the lead.
Chilterns moss. Wooded surroundings mean moss and leaf litter on most roofs.
How do we do gutter cleaning?
We clear gutters with a gutter vacuum, working from the ground where possible and to working-at-height rules where not. Because we are roofers, we also photograph the gutters and roof edge and tell you if anything needs attention.
