Housing stock — Plain clay tile, handmade tile and natural slate on listed properties. Lead-lined parapet gutters and box gutters are frequent jobs.
Local roofing challenge — Lead-lined parapet gutters on Georgian terraces in the town centre are the single biggest source of leaks — we strip, re-board and re-lay in code 6 lead with proper drips and rolls.
On the ground — Properties around Castle Street and Market Hill have Welsh slate from the original Georgian builds — we source like-for-like Penrhyn or Cwt-y-Bugail rather than imported Spanish for any conservation repair.
Microclimate — Open countryside to the north means MK18 takes the full force of north-easterly winter weather — north-facing slates pick up freeze-thaw damage that we rarely see further south in the patch.
