Nantwich is full of character properties: Welsh slate, clay tile, Edwardian brick. We do a lot of repointing and lead flashing renewals around the conservation area, and full re-roofs out toward Acton, Worleston and Hatherton with modern concrete tile.
Nantwich is roughly 35 minutes from our yard at Slaters Way, Winsford. We know the area well, including Welsh Row, the conservation area, Acton village and the Hatherton estates.
Most properties in Nantwich 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.
Nantwich is one of the more material-varied towns in our coverage. The town centre and Welsh Row conservation area is dominated by Edwardian and Victorian brick properties with original Welsh slate roofs, often paired with traditional clay plain tile on bay roofs and dormers. The Wybunbury and Acton edges run inter-war detached with clay or early concrete tile. Modern estates at Worleston, Stapeley and Hatherton are mostly concrete interlocking tile with dry ridge and UPVC roofline. Listed and conservation-area work makes up a meaningful portion of our Nantwich schedule.
Welsh slate repair and partial re-lay on the conservation-area properties, with matched gauge and weathering. Lime-mortar repointing on chimney stacks where modern hard mortar has cracked. Lead flashing renewal in Code 5 to LSA technique at chimneys and abutments. Full re-roofs on the inter-war and modern estates with concrete tile, BBA-approved dry ridge and verge, treated battens to BS 5534. Conservatory warm roof conversions on the 1990s-2000s polycarbonate units in the Stapeley and Worleston estates.
The Nantwich town centre conservation area covers Welsh Row, High Street and the core CW5 streets. Period property repairs require materials matched to the original: Welsh slate by gauge, clay tile by profile, lime mortar mixed to match the original lime-cement ratio. We coordinate the survey with the Cheshire East conservation officer where Listed Building Consent is needed, and we issue a detailed pre-quote photo report so the application carries the supporting evidence.
Yes. We source Welsh slate matched to gauge and weathering colour, most commonly from the original Penrhyn quarry where the material warrants it. We always identify the slate type at survey before quoting a re-roof in the conservation area.
Yes, we work on Grade II properties along Welsh Row, High Street and the central streets, coordinated with the Cheshire East conservation officer. Listed Building Consent applications are part of our service.
Modern estate re-roofs (Worleston, Stapeley, Hatherton) run 5 to 7 working days. Period property re-lays in town centre are slower (7 to 10 days) because of the detailing and slower scaffold loading.
Yes, all of CW5 including the rural edges. Travel from Winsford is about 35 minutes.
A real reply, usually same day. We come out, look at the property, give you a written price. No hard sell.
