The Chinnor pattern for bay window roof repair (lead & tile)
OX39 estates around Lower Icknield Way were built on the former cement works site with restrictive covenants on external appearance — we check covenants at quote stage rather than at planning submission. The fix is rarely the obvious bit — water travels along battens before it drops through a ceiling. We trace properly, document it for you, then repair.

Things Chinnor customers ask first
Is this a common issue on Chinnor roofs?+
Yes — it's one of the more frequent OX39 call-outs we get, particularly on roofs near Chinnor Hill.
What's your busiest time of year in Chinnor?+
Autumn and early spring — after the first B4445-corridor storms expose weak spots. Book OX39 surveys 2-4 weeks ahead during those windows.
Who's the local authority for Chinnor roofing work?+
South Oxfordshire District Council. We handle notifications and conservation submissions on your behalf — particularly relevant for properties near Chinnor Hill.
Can you find the leak if it's not obvious?+
Almost always. We trace from inside (loft staining, daylight, damp lines) then verify outside. On OX39 roofs the entry point is often a metre or more from the visible stain.
How far are you from Chinnor?+
Our yard is in High Wycombe — about 8.6 miles, roughly 21 minutes off-peak via B4009. That keeps travel charges down and return visits painless.
If a quick chat would help, the mobile rings straight through — no gatekeepers between you and the roofer running your Chinnor job.
