Hunstanton's seafront faces west across The Wash, which leaves the west-facing slopes taking weather straight off the water. The older streets are built largely of carstone, usually squared and crudely coursed, with limestone used for window openings, bays and copings, and red clay pantiles are among the traditional roof coverings here. Pantiles on an exposed roof shift and slip, and the fixings and bedding under them tend to fail before the tiles themselves do, so we work through a whole roof rather than patching the two tiles you can see from the pavement. We take on re-roofing, tile repairs, flashings, gutters and flat roofs, and we tell you plainly what needs doing now and what can wait.
Call any time. Calls are answered day and night and passed straight to our roofers.
King's Lynn sits 12 miles to the south, linked to the town by a frequent Lynx bus service. The Hunstanton conservation area was designated on 13 December 1984, so if your property falls inside it, changes to roof coverings and detailing need checking with the borough council before anyone starts stripping tiles.
Development began in 1846, when Henry L'Estrange Styleman Le Strange decided to develop the area south of Old Hunstanton as a bathing resort, so much of the stock is Victorian. Red brick and gault brick appear alongside the stonework, and Welsh slates cover plenty of these roofs: steep pitches, lead flashings, and slate that wants matching rather than swapping for concrete.
