Roofers in Great Chart
An old village centre with a notable church, now bordered by Ashford's newer housing.
Roofing in Great Chart
Great Chart keeps a distinct identity despite sitting right against Ashford's western edge, with a historic church and a cluster of older houses around it that predate the surrounding development by centuries. It's this older core that tends to bring us the more involved roofing work.
Chimney stacks on the period houses here are often tall and sometimes shared, and leadwork around older valleys and abutments needs regular checking. The newer housing nearby is more straightforward, usually needing standard repair or gutter work rather than anything structural.
Historic brick and ragstone buildings cluster around the church, with timber-framed cottages among them. Surrounding streets have twentieth-century and more recent housing. Roofs on the older buildings often combine plain tile with lead valleys and tall chimneys.
