A full reroof of a historic cottage in Ironbridge Gorge, including structural roof repairs, new roof coverings, chimney repointing and the installation of two new skylights

Nestled in Ironbridge Gorge, this traditional cottage required a full reroof after years of weather damage caused broken tiles, sagging sections and weakened timbers.

The roof structure was reinforced before new coverings were installed, with clay tiles carefully matched to those of surrounding cottages. The chimney was fully rebuilt and repointed, and two rear roof windows were added to bring natural light into the upstairs rooms while preserving the cottage’s front appearance.

Care was taken to ensure the finished roof remained in keeping with the historic surroundings while providing a durable, low-maintenance solution. The completed reroof has improved both the stability and appearance of the property, offering long-term protection from the elements.

Project Solution

A full reroof was recommended due to the poor condition of the existing coverings and structure, as local repairs would not resolve widespread deterioration.

The roof was stripped, structural repairs completed, and new coverings installed along with two skylights. The chimney stack was also repointed to improve durability and maintain the property’s appearance.

Lets start with the fact that it has just rained and the new roof and guttering has performed perfectly. Having been duped by different roofing repairers it was a great pleasure to meet the One Stop team as they appeared so professional. A fully itemized and competitive quote was produced as well as a timeline for doing the work. As the weather was extremely hot they started early in the morning and finished in mid afternoon. Having said that they all worked flat out to keep to the schedule, and the job was finished exactly on time as quoted. Well done to you all. Great team effort even down to thorough cleaning up. Finally it has to be said that they were all very polite and thoughtful all the way through the process and I will not hesitate to call them back when further work is needed. Thank you all for such a fantastic piece of work.
