Working in Warwick

Roofing work across Warwick

Warwick town centre has some of the oldest housing stock we deal with anywhere in the area, with Georgian and timber framed buildings close to the castle and the historic core, many of them listed and within the town's conservation area. Roofing work here is careful, often slower than a standard job, and needs the right materials from the start.

Away from the centre, in Woodloes and Warwick Gates, the housing is much newer, built from the 1970s through to recent new build phases, with straightforward tile roofs that are generally quicker and simpler to repair or replace. We also cover Hampton Magna, Budbrooke and the villages around Warwick.

Warwick sees its share of wind and rain coming across open farmland to the west, and we regularly get called out for storm damage, slipped tiles and blocked gutters after bad weather, alongside the more specialist repair work on the older buildings in the town centre.

Property styles and roofing materials in Warwick

Central Warwick, particularly around the castle and the historic streets like Jury Street and Church Street, has Georgian and older timber framed buildings, many of them listed. Roofs here are often clay tile or slate, sometimes with complex valleys and multiple chimneys, and any work needs listed building consent where the property is listed, plus materials that match what is already there.

Around Woodloes, Hampton Magna and Warwick Gates the housing is much more modern, largely 1970s onwards through to current new build estates, with concrete or interlocking clay tiles that are straightforward to source and replace. These roofs are usually simpler in shape and quicker to work on than the town centre properties.

Warwickshire brick is common throughout the older parts of town, often paired with clay tile roofs that suit the local character, and where we do re-roof an older Warwick property we try to keep that same look rather than switching to a modern tile that would stand out.

Common problems

Roof problems we see in Warwick

The faults that come up most often on local properties.

Ageing lead and flashing on listed buildings

The Georgian and timber framed buildings near the castle often have old lead flashing around complex roof junctions and multiple chimneys. Once this fails, water tends to find its way into the roof structure, and repairs need care and the correct listed building consent where applicable.

Slipped clay tiles on older Warwick streets

Many of the older properties around the town centre have clay tile roofs, and over the years fixings weaken, causing tiles to slip or crack. This is one of the more common issues we deal with on Warwick's older housing stock.

Storm damage on estate housing

The newer estates around Warwick Gates and Woodloes are more exposed on some elevations, and after high winds we often get called out for lost ridge tiles or lifted roofing felt underneath the tiles.

Valley and gutter blockages on complex older roofs

Town centre properties with multiple roof pitches and valleys, especially near the castle, are prone to blockages from leaves and moss, which can cause water to back up and get under the tiles or slates.

Chimney repointing and cracked chimney pots

Older Warwick homes with tall Victorian and Georgian chimneys often need repointing or pot replacement as mortar and clay weather over time, and neglecting this can let damp into the chimney breast.

Our process

How a job in Warwick usually runs

  1. 1

    Roof assessment

    We inspect your roof in Warwick, checking for any listed building or conservation area considerations if you are in the town centre, before putting together a quote.

  2. 2

    Written quote

    We provide a clear, written quote setting out the work, materials to be used and guarantee terms, so there are no surprises later.

  3. 3

    Consents and access arranged

    Where listed building consent is needed, or where scaffolding needs council permission on a narrow street near the castle, we sort this out before work begins.

  4. 4

    Work completed and site cleared

    We carry out the roofing work using matching materials where required, then remove all waste and leave the site clean and tidy.

Why choose us

Why homeowners in Warwick call The Roofing Lads

Warwick has a real mix of building ages, and we treat a Georgian townhouse near the castle very differently to a 1980s semi in Warwick Gates. We know which jobs need listed building consent and how to match materials properly on the older streets, so the roof still looks right once we are done.

As a family run business we are fully insured and give every customer a written quote with guarantee terms included, so you know what to expect from the start. We use our own team on every job, which helps when a roof needs a bit more patience and skill than usual.

Whether you have a listed Georgian property near the castle or a modern semi out at Warwick Gates, we can give you an honest assessment of what your roof needs and why. We know Warwick's mix of old and new housing well.
