Cambridge Roofers installs new roofs in Little Shelford, a quiet Cam-side village where many homes are older than they look and roof structures need careful assessment.
Little Shelford is a small, largely unspoiled village with thatched properties, flint walls, and several timber-framed farmhouses converted into family homes. Alongside these, there are Victorian brick cottages and a handful of 20th-century infill houses. When replacing roofs on older properties here, we always inspect the rafters and wall plates before quoting — structural timber repairs are common in buildings of this age and should be factored in from the start.
We use materials sympathetic to the local character: handmade clay plain tiles, natural slate, and lead detailing at valleys and abutments. Little Shelford is a Conservation Area village, so we liaise with South Cambridgeshire District Council where planning consent or listed building consent may be required. Call us for a free survey.
