What should Pinner homeowners know?

The High Street has timber-framed and Georgian buildings under clay peg tiles, many listed. Metroland brought 1920s–30s semis and detached houses with hipped plain clay tile roofs, bay windows and tile-hung gables. Pinner Hill and the roads off Moss Lane hold larger Arts and Crafts homes with steep tiled roofs and tall chimneys.

What goes wrong on Pinner roofs?

Bay roofs and tile-hung gables. 1930s bays and tile-hung gables lose tiles and leak where the lead meets the brickwork.

Hips and ridges on Metroland semis. Mortar-bedded hips and ridges crack and loosen after ninety years.

Plain tiles slipping. Original nails on 1930s plain tile roofs corrode, and tiles start to slide.

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 Pinner: FAQs

My 1930s bay window leaks. Is it the roof?

Usually the small bay roof or the lead where it meets the wall. We find the exact point and photograph it.

Can I change my roof tiles in a Pinner conservation area?

It depends on the area and any Article 4 direction. Like-for-like repairs are normally fine; we check with Harrow if needed.
