Homes in Guildford

In the county town of Surrey, on the River Wey, the age of a house tells you a lot about its roof. A Victorian terrace, an inter-war semi and a larger detached home each come with their own covering and their own history, and on an older building the roof is part of its character. That is why we ask about the property before anything else. Our own finished work on a period property includes weathered traditional tiles finished with a shaped ridge.

What matters for period building roofing in Guildford

Period building roofing in Guildford starts with a conversation about your particular property. When you get in touch, tell Walter about the building, the roof and the work you have in mind. We also carry out new roofs and general roof repairs, so you can raise a repair and the longer-term needs of the roof in the same discussion.

  • Give the age of the property if you know it, and describe the existing roof covering.
  • Point out any areas of concern, whether you have noticed them inside the house or outside.
  • If you already have a survey or advice about the roof, mention it when we discuss the job.
  • If the work means replacing more than a quarter of the roof covering, it must meet the Building Regulations for insulation.

Questions about period building roofing in Guildford

Will roof work on my Guildford home need consent?

It can. Roof work on a listed building or in a conservation area may need consent, and any work on a listed building needs listed building consent. Permitted development rights are also more limited in conservation areas. Check your property's status before the work is planned and let us know what you find.

What should I have ready before I ask for a quote?

The age of the house if you know it, the type of covering on the roof now, and the parts you are worried about. Any survey or advice you already have is useful too. With that, Walter can talk through your property and the work you are considering.
