Roofing, leadwork and stonework across Gerrards Cross and Chalfont St Peter, Fulmer, Austenwood, Bulstrode.
Gerrards Cross is large detached property, much of it Edwardian and inter-war, with complicated roofs. Deep valleys, multiple hips, tile-hung gables and substantial chimney stacks are the norm rather than the exception.
Gerrards Cross was largely built out after the railway arrived, and the houses are big, individually designed and roofed accordingly. Rather than a simple front and back slope you get several hips meeting valleys, dormers, tile hanging on the gables and often more than one stack. Everything that goes wrong on those roofs goes wrong at a junction, so the work is usually leadwork: valley linings that have split, secret gutters full of leaf litter, and back gutters behind stacks that were never big enough. The clay tiles themselves are frequently sound and worth keeping, which is often the better answer than a full re-roof. Chalfont St Peter and Fulmer nearby have older village property where lime pointing comes into it.

Both, and both in house. Chimney stacks, copes, skews and stone elevations are done by the same people who do the roof, which is the reason stonework is in the name.
