Typical jobs on village bungalows

Village housing, bungalows and rural plots.

Failed ridge and hip mortar
Bedding mortar on village bungalows cracks and lets ridge tiles move; dry-fix is the usual long-term answer on the exposed side towards the B1108.
Tired felt and battens
Where the underfelt has perished, common on brick cottages, patch repairs stop being economic and a strip-and-re-cover is the honest recommendation.
Properties around All Saints church
The buildings closest to All Saints church take the brunt of the weather from that side, and they are the ones we are asked to look at most often here. The same applies along the approach to Little Melton village hall.
Roof-light degradation
GRP roof-lights on Little Melton units go brittle and crack, which is a leak and a safety problem at once for anyone who has to get on the roof.
