Pitched roofing services in Woodstock

Pitched roofs in Woodstock are commonly found on traditional stone cottages, listed buildings, and period townhouses close to the historic centre. Many roofs use natural slate or clay tiles and feature older timber structures. Alterations and extensions carried out over decades often create complex junctions that require careful assessment. Our pitched roofing service in Woodstock focuses on preserving structural integrity while maintaining the character of the property.

Common pitched roof problems in Woodstock

Roofing issues in Woodstock are typically age-related. Traditional materials can last many decades, but fixings, underlay, and mortar eventually deteriorate and require skilled repair.

Slate fixing fatigue

On older Woodstock properties, slate movement often results from corroded nails or fixing fatigue. As slates loosen, small gaps form that allow water beneath the roof covering.

Lead flashing wear

Chimneys and abutments on period properties rely heavily on lead flashing. Over time, lead can crack, split, or pull away, leading to leaks during sustained rainfall.

Timber and underlay ageing

Traditional roof structures may still contain original timber battens and older felt underlay. When moisture penetrates repeatedly, these components weaken and require attention.

Ridge mortar breakdown

Ridge tiles secured with mortar can crack gradually with weather exposure. Once mortar deteriorates, ridge sections become more susceptible to wind movement and water ingress.

Pitched roofing materials we work with

Homes across Woodstock commonly use natural slate and clay tiles, with some later developments featuring concrete tiles. Correct fixing methods and compatible materials are essential for long-term durability.

Concrete roof tiles

Concrete tiles are typically found on more modern properties around Woodstock and provide reliable protection when maintained correctly.

Clay roof tiles

Clay tiles are common on traditional homes and offer a classic finish. Repairs require careful handling to maintain colour and alignment.

Natural slate roofing

Natural slate appears on many period properties in Woodstock and requires experienced installation and secure fixing techniques.

How Our Pitched Roofing Process Works?
Initial Inspection & Assessment

We start by inspecting your pitched roof to understand the condition of the tiles, fixings, and underlying structure. This allows us to identify the root cause of any issues, not just the visible symptoms.

Clear Advice & Fixed Quotation

Once the inspection is complete, we explain what we’ve found and outline the most appropriate solution, whether that’s a repair or more extensive work. You’ll receive a clear quotation with no pressure and no unnecessary extras.

Scheduled Roofing Work

If you’re happy to proceed, we arrange the work at a suitable time and carry it out safely and efficiently. Our team works carefully to minimise disruption while ensuring the job is completed properly.

Final Checks & Ongoing Protection

Once the work is completed, we carry out final checks to ensure everything is secure and performing as it should. All pitched roofing work is completed to a high standard and backed by appropriate guarantees for peace of mind.

Removal of Chimney stack, replacement of roof underlay, guttering and flat roof repair. - Mitchell from Alliance Roofing & Building was the only builder, of many that I had contacted, that climbed a ladder to inspect my flat-roof and to climb into my loft-space to inspect the main roof from the inside. After an extensive review of my property and discussing my options, he emailed me his quotation on the same day. Booking in dates for Alliance & Roofing to commence work was quick and effortless. They arrived on time, completed the work as planned to a professional standard. Provided Photos of work carried out at all stages. I highly recommend Alliance Roofing & Building.
