The problem

A Victorian property with a conical slate turret, lead valley gutters and period chimney stacks needed a thorough inspection and sympathetic repairs.

What we found

Our inspection covered the turret spire, the slate slopes, the lead valley gutters and the brick chimney stacks, recording each area with photos.

Our recommendation

Repair the period slate roof like-for-like rather than replace it, keeping the original character of the turret and chimneys.
