What should Ickenham homeowners know?
Around the village green and Swakeleys Road are older cottages and listed buildings under clay tiles. Most of Ickenham is 1930s Metroland: detached houses and semis with hipped plain clay tile roofs, bays, tile hanging and gabled fronts. Later infill and extensions add flat roofs and dormers.
What goes wrong on Ickenham roofs?
Hips, ridges and bonnets. Mortar-bedded hips and bonnet tiles on 1930s roofs crack and loosen over time.
Bay roofs. Small bay roofs and their flashings are a common source of leaks into front rooms.
Dormer and flat roof junctions. Loft conversions add dormers and flat roofs that leak at the joins with the main roof.
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.

Questions
Gutter cleaning in Ickenham: FAQs
My hip tiles are loose. Is that a big job?
Usually not. Re-bedding or mechanically fixing hips is a repair, not a re-roof.
Do you work on loft conversion dormers?
Yes, including leadwork and flat roofs on the dormer.
