Things Haddenham customers ask first
Will my insurer accept your Haddenham report?+
Yes — we provide photo-documented reports with the cause, scope and quoted repair. We've done this for most major UK insurers on jobs around St Mary the Virgin Church.
Who's the local authority for Haddenham roofing work?+
Buckinghamshire Council. We handle notifications and conservation submissions on your behalf — particularly relevant for properties near St Mary the Virgin Church.
How far are you from Haddenham?+
Our yard is in High Wycombe — about 12.6 miles, roughly 30 minutes off-peak via A418. That keeps travel charges down and return visits painless.
What's your busiest time of year in Haddenham?+
Autumn and early spring — after the first A4129-corridor storms expose weak spots. Book HP17 surveys 2-4 weeks ahead during those windows.
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 HP17 roofs the entry point is often a metre or more from the visible stain.
Every Haddenham job we quote we'd be happy to put on our own house — that's the spec test we apply before sending pricing.
