Roofers in Wickham
Wickham's Georgian square is one of the finest in the county and almost all of it is listed. We repair and replace roofs across the village and the Meon Valley, on historic property and modern housing alike.
Roof Repairs and Replacements Across Wickham and the Meon Valley
Wickham is built around a large Georgian square with listed frontages running most of the way round it, sitting inside a conservation area. Behind those frontages are roofs that have been patched, extended and re-covered repeatedly, often with clay plain tiles, sometimes with slate, and with parapets, valleys and hidden gutters that were never designed for the rainfall intensity we now get. Work on these roofs is detail work. The materials have to match, the consent position has to be clear and the lead detailing has to be done properly, because that is where these buildings leak. The wider Meon Valley brings a different mix again: farm cottages, converted barns, outbuildings, and modern housing on the edges of the village. Larger rural roofs, more exposure, longer spans and more original timber still in service. We survey each one on its own terms rather than reaching for a standard answer.
Historic Roofs Leak at the Details, Not the Middle
Historic roofs in Wickham almost never leak through the middle of the slope. They leak at the lead, the valleys, the parapets and the hidden gutters, and those are the parts a quick look from the ground will miss. We trace the entry point before we price anything, because on buildings like these guessing is expensive. Fifteen years of roofing, and one team for the covering, the leadwork, the chimneys and the timber beneath. You get the photographs behind our conclusion and a written quotation for the work it points to.

What Wickham Homeowners Ask Before Booking
Where old roofs really leak, what consent applies and how access works around the square. These are the ones that come up most across Wickham and the Meon Valley.
Do you do roof cleaning and moss removal?
Yes, along with gutter clearing and preventative maintenance. On shaded valley roofs moss builds fast and holds water against the tiles. We will also tell you honestly when a roof does not need cleaning, because aggressive cleaning on old tiles can do more harm than the moss.
Which areas around Wickham do you cover?
Wickham, Knowle, Shedfield, Soberton, Droxford, Swanmore and out towards Bishop's Waltham, Fareham and Botley. Call with your postcode if you are unsure.
Can you carry out a drone survey?
Where it is the sensible way to see a roof safely, yes. It works well on steep, tall or awkward roofs where getting eyes on the covering would otherwise mean scaffold before anyone has even diagnosed the problem.
Do you take on barns and outbuildings?
Yes. Barn and outbuilding roofs, larger agricultural spans, timber repairs and re-covering. Access and structure are the two things we look at hardest on rural buildings, and we will say if scaffold or a different lift is needed to do it safely.
Water is coming in but the tiles look fine. What now?
On older village property that is the usual pattern. The tiles are rarely the problem. Lead valleys, secret gutters behind parapets, flashings at chimneys and abutments and blocked hidden drainage cause most of it. We trace the entry point before quoting, because guessing at this is expensive.
Do you work on listed buildings in the square?
Yes. Repair in matching materials is normally the appropriate approach and often needs no consent. Anything altering the roof's appearance or fabric may need listed building consent, and we would rather flag that at survey than have work stopped halfway.
