Knutsford properties are typically the bigger end of the market: period homes, large detached, and high-spec new builds in Mobberley and Mere. Welsh slate, bespoke leadwork, GRP flat roofs over architect-designed extensions are common. The pace is slower and the spec is higher.
Knutsford is roughly 30 minutes from our yard at Slaters Way, Winsford. We know the area well, including King Street, Tabley, Mere, Mobberley village and the Tatton Park edge.
Most properties in Knutsford that come to us need one of three things: a roof repair after wind damage, a full re-roof on a tired concrete-tile semi, or building work on an extension or new build. The full service list is below.
Knutsford's housing skews to the high end of the Cheshire market. The town centre and King Street area run period properties (Edwardian, Victorian, some Georgian) with original Welsh slate, traditional clay plain tile on bay roofs, ornate lead detailing and feature chimneys. Mobberley, Mere and the Tatton edge run large detached properties, often with bespoke architect-designed extensions, GRP flat roofs over orangeries and dormers, conservation-style Velux rooflights, premium UPVC or aluminium roofline. The Tabley and Plumley villages add some inter-war and modern detached, mostly concrete tile and UPVC roofline.
Welsh slate repair and re-lay on the period properties around the King Street conservation area, matched to original gauge and weathering. Bespoke leadwork on bay roofs, dormers and feature chimneys, Code 5 to LSA technique. GRP flat roofs over architect-designed kitchen extensions and orangeries on the Mobberley and Mere properties. Velux and conservation-rooflight installation coordinated with the architect's drawings and the conservation officer. Full re-roofs on the inter-war and modern detached at Tabley and Plumley.
A meaningful portion of Knutsford work is coordinated with the original architect on the build. We work to detailed drawings, coordinate flashing details and rooflight surrounds at the design stage, and snag-list the build before final sign-off. Conservation work in the King Street area requires Cheshire East conservation officer consultation and Listed Building Consent on Grade II and above. The pace on Knutsford jobs is generally slower than the rest of our schedule because the spec is higher and the detailing more complex.

Yes, Code 5 lead to LSA technique on bay roofs, dormers, valleys, back gutters and feature chimneys. We dress the lead on-site rather than buying pre-formed sections.
Around 30 minutes via the M6 or 35 via the A537 through Plumley. Both routes work depending on time of day.
Yes, all of WA16 is in our Knutsford coverage including the village edges. The pace is generally slower because of the architect-coordinated detailing.
A real reply, usually same day. We come out, look at the property, give you a written price. No hard sell.
