A city rebuilt — and its roofs
Coventry's housing tells its history. The Victorian and Edwardian terraces that survived the war — Earlsdon and Chapelfields especially — carry slate and clay roofs now well over a century old, with the usual pattern of slipped slates, tired flashings and mortar verges. But the city's defining stock is post-war: the estates built at speed in the 1950s and 60s were roofed almost entirely in early concrete tile, and those roofs are now past the age their makers designed them for. Eroding surfaces, brittle tiles and perished underfelt are common — which is why so much of our Coventry work is the honest conversation about repairing versus replacing, backed by photographs from the roof rather than opinions from the van.
