Housing stock — Concrete-tile 1960s-70s estates dominate WD5 — most now at reroof age with fading colour and cracked ridges.
Local roofing challenge — Three Rivers District enforces stricter chimney-stack removal rules than Dacorum next door — even structurally redundant stacks in a conservation street need pre-app confirmation, which we process before scaffold.
On the ground — WD5 estates around Langley Road were built to a single Development Corporation spec so a whole cul-de-sac often reroofs within 2-3 years of each other — we discount subsequent neighbours' quotes to keep the scaffold on-site.
