Cambridge Roofers installs new roofs in Grantchester, a village of real character where properties range from thatched cottages to substantial Edwardian houses, and where roofing work must be done with care.
Grantchester is a Conservation Area village with strong links to Cambridge University, and many of its properties — particularly along The Causeway and Mill Way — are listed or sit in the setting of listed buildings. Clay plain tiles and natural Welsh or Westmorland slate are the appropriate materials here, and we always check whether consent is required before work begins. Using the wrong tile on a property in a village like this can create planning problems that cost far more than the roof itself.
We have installed new roofs on detached Edwardian houses, converted farm outbuildings, and Victorian estate cottages in and around Grantchester. We source reclaimed handmade clay tiles when matching existing roofscapes is important. Call us for a free roof survey — we will advise on materials and consents as part of that visit.
