Housing stock — Big handmade clay tile and natural slate roofs with heavy lead detail on bay windows and dormers — Chesham Bois is comparable to Gerrards Cross for lead workload.
Local roofing challenge — The village is a conservation area with a strong residents' association — any external change needs both council and association sign-off, and we handle both submissions.
On the ground — HP6 Chesham Bois detached properties along Bois Lane commonly have Bath-stone chimney stacks with soft lime mortar that erodes fast — we repoint in matching NHL3.5 lime rather than sand-cement, which is the only compliant spec.
Microclimate — The ridge position gives Chesham Bois excellent frost drainage — north-facing pitch failures we see in Chesham valley below don't happen here, but wind uplift is measurably worse.
Site access — Bois Lane is a narrow ridge road with restricted passing places — we route scaffold lorries from the north (Chesham) rather than south to avoid meeting oncoming traffic on the ridge.
