Stone slate and Welsh slate need different repair decisions
Witney’s older roofs include limestone slates laid in diminishing courses, while Welsh slate is a feature of Newland’s roofscape. The two materials differ in thickness, weight and fixing, not merely colour. Adam identifies what sits on your roof before specifying replacement pieces or work underneath. A sound-looking surface also needs the adjoining lead and support examined when a leak appears. The resulting photographs show the components involved, making the quotation more useful than a single line describing a repair to a grey roof.
Around Cogges, older agricultural buildings sit near modern homes across the Windrush, and their roof structures need individual consideration. Madley Park and the expanding western areas bring newer tile systems, rooflights and extension connections. Shaded gutters and valleys add drainage checks to either type of property. Adam traces the fault through your assembly and explains how the repair joins the surrounding roof. You can see the material choice and the relevant supporting work in the written proposal before agreeing to any replacement of the covering.

Roof details worth checking in Witney
Diminishing stone-slate courses
Stone slate needs its thickness, course arrangement and supporting structure understood. Adam identifies the existing units before proposing a replacement piece or a change to the covering.
Welsh slate at Newland
Thinner slate relies on its fixings and laps to shed water. A slipped unit receives a check of the surrounding courses and support as well as its surface.
Rooflights on later tiled homes
A rooflight introduces flashing around an opening in the slope. Inspection follows those laps and nearby tiles before deciding whether the fault belongs to the covering.

Hired Adam from Storm Shield roofing to replace my roof. Adam himself and his team did an excellent job the roof looks great! All my questions were answered they left no mess when they left I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

The communications with Adam were excellent. The work was arranged quickly and carried out by Ben to a high standard. Would heartily recommend this company.

Initially keen to get the work - went out of his way to visit the site. Pleasant demeanour and went about the work diligently. Made a good job of the roof, and cleaned everything when the task was completed. The cost was mid-range of the three quotes I got.
Roofing questions from Witney
Is stone slate repaired in the same way as Welsh slate?
No, the materials have different thicknesses, weights and fixing arrangements. Stone slate laid in diminishing courses requires its course sizes and supporting roof understood. Adam identifies the covering during the inspection and explains the proposed repair pieces and associated work, instead of substituting one grey material for another without assessment.
Can you investigate a leak around a Witney rooflight?
Yes, the inspection checks the flashing assembly and the tile courses beside the opening. Water near a rooflight does not automatically prove that the glazing needs replacement. Adam photographs the relevant junction and explains the repair to the roof detail, with the surrounding covering included where access to it is required.
Do older agricultural roofs near Cogges need their own survey?
Yes, their structure and covering need examining as installed rather than inferred from nearby houses. Tell Adam about the building and any previous alterations when arranging the visit. He checks the roof components and access, then sets out a written proposal tied to the observed condition and intended repair.
Can gutter blockage explain a Witney roof leak?
Restricted drainage is one cause to investigate, especially beneath trees or beside a roof valley. A blocked outlet needs distinguishing from split lining or broken tiles. Adam follows the route of water and shows the findings, allowing cleaning and physical repairs to be described separately in your quotation.

The roofer who quotes does the work
Adam gets onto the roof himself, photographs what he finds and explains the work in your written quote. He leads the team through the job, with daily photo and video updates.
