Roofers who know
Faringdon street by street.

Faringdon sits on the edge of the Cotswolds and the western Vale of White Horse, and it's a natural part of our patch. The historic core — Market Place, London Street, Gloucester Street — is dominated by 17th, 18th and 19th century stone-fronted properties, many with clay tiles or, at higher elevation, stone slates. Newer estates around Park Road and Coxwell Road are largely modern concrete-tile pitched roofs.

For urgent Faringdon work in SN7 we aim to attend the same working day, generally within the hour. Being on the Cotswold edge, this is a natural extension of our home area — we know the property types, the failure points, and how to detail the fixes.

Property types

Faringdon's older core is characteristically Cotswold-edge — stone-fronted terraces and cottages with clay-tiled or occasional stone-slated roofs, stone chimneys, and lead detailing where it matters. Moving out towards Park Road, Coxwell Road and Fernham Road, the housing becomes 1970s onwards, with trussed rafter construction and concrete interlocking tiles.

Common Issues in Faringdon

The problems we see most
on Faringdon roofs.

Every location has its own failure profile — driven by property type, climate exposure and building age. Here's what we regularly deal with in and around Faringdon.

Aged pointing on stone chimneys

Faringdon's older chimneys often haven't been repointed in decades. Once pointing fails, water tracks the flue and shows as bedroom damp — much cheaper caught early than after plaster damage.

Wind exposure on the ridge

Properties on the higher ground around the folly and Faringdon Hill catch strong winds. Mortar-bedded ridges lift — we mechanically re-fix to current BS 5534.

Perished felt on 1970s estates

Estate stock off Park Road and Coxwell Road used bitumen underfelt that is now well past its life. A re-roof with breathable membrane and fully-supported eaves is the permanent fix.

Failed flat roofs on extensions

Kitchen and bedroom extensions often have 20+ year old felt roofs that now pond and bubble. EPDM or GRP replacement, properly detailed at the abutment, solves it.

In Detail

How we work
in Faringdon.

Working in the Faringdon conservation area

Central Faringdon sits within a conservation area, and several properties around Market Place and London Street are listed. Where clay tiles, stone slate or lead detail are original we replace like-for-like and use lime mortar where cement would be inappropriate.

We're comfortable liaising with the Vale of White Horse conservation team where the work needs sign-off, and we photograph existing details before strip-off so ridge, verge and eaves treatment can be replicated exactly.

Modern estates and extensions

The estates off Park Road, Coxwell Road and Fernham Road are our bread-and-butter for full re-roofs and flat-roof extensions. Concrete tiles are usually sound and reusable — it's the underfelt, battens and ridge detail that fail. We survey honestly and quote for the work that's genuinely needed, in writing, before starting.

Our Process

Five steps. No day rates.
No surprises.

01

Call or enquire

Tell us the postcode, property type and what you've noticed. If it's urgent we prioritise the visit and, where safe, talk you through a temporary hold until we arrive.

02

Same-day survey

A working roofer — not a salesman — attends, inspects at height where needed and photographs the defect. You get an honest opinion on whether it's a repair, a section renewal or a full re-roof.

03

Fixed-price quote

Written quote by email, itemised by task and material. No day rates, no vague allowances. What you agree is what you pay unless you approve a change in writing.

04

Scheduled works

We book a start date that suits you, protect the property with sheeting and skips positioned correctly, and turn up when we said we would. Waste is removed daily, not left on the drive.

05

Sign-off & guarantee

Final walk-round with photos of the finished work, invoice, and your written 15-year workmanship guarantee (10 years on flat roof systems). We're on the phone if you ever need us again.
