The All Saints conservation area at Stand
The All Saints conservation area was designated in 2004 and takes in the streets around All Saints Church on Stand Lane, which was Charles Barry's first commission and is Grade I listed. Inside that boundary the covering, the ridge profile and the chimney detail all have to match what is there, so a cheap concrete substitute will not get through. We quote natural slate and lime mortar for those addresses. Outside it, on the ordinary semis, materials are your choice, which normally means like for like tile and a much smaller bill.

The order things fail on a 1930s semi
On the housing along Pinfold Lane, Stand Lane and the roads around the town centre, ridge mortar goes first. It cracks, water gets in around the ridge tiles and tracks along the battens into the loft, often showing up well away from the ridge itself. Verge mortar and hip irons follow. Chimney stacks on this era of house have usually been patched at some point with flexible mastic instead of lead, which fails inside five years. After that the tile nibs break and slipping starts in earnest.
