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.
Site access — MK18 jobs are a 30-mile run from our High Wycombe yard so we typically batch Buckingham and Winslow work in the same week to keep travel costs out of the quote.

Will my insurer accept your Buckingham 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 Buckingham University.
