Taverham is a large residential village north-west of Norwich with a mix of 1970s estates and more recent developments, and its roofs are at exactly the age where regular repair work pays dividends.
The original Taverham development along Fir Covert Road and Sandy Lane was mostly built in the 1970s and early 1980s, using concrete interlocking tiles that are now showing their age. We regularly replace cracked or blown tiles on these roofs, re-bed loose ridge sections, and sort out the lead or felt flashings where chimney stacks meet the tile bed - an area that tends to fail first on this generation of housing. Taverham's tree cover, particularly near the Marriott's Way trail and the Wensum valley edge, also means gutters and valleys collect leaf debris that backs up and forces water under the tiles.
The newer properties around Taverham village centre and on the Ringland Road side are generally in better condition, but dormer windows and flat-roofed garages still need occasional attention. We're around eight miles from Taverham and cover the area regularly. Get in touch to book a free roof survey and we'll give you an honest assessment with no obligation.
