Two Grade II listed properties on Beverley’s doorstep show the conservation side of our work: a detailed roof condition assessment at Lockington House, the Grade II listed former rectory in Lockington, and an ongoing programme of lead work, ridge and verge repairs and exact-match tile replacement on a Grade II listed house in Walkington. In Beverley itself, in September 2026, we replaced the rotten timber trough across two terraced houses near Queensgate with a 9-metre run of Twinplas — the twin-wall PVC box gutter made to replace timber troughing like-for-like — fitting new timber corbels beneath it first so the gutter could be set to the correct falls, all finished in a day. The same month we rebuilt a badly eroded chimney stack in Beverley from the roofline up — new brick, oversailing course and flaunching, with the pot refitted under a bird guard. Other Beverley jobs in our gallery: a front bay window roof replaced in Code 6 lead after a storm blew the old covering off, with rolled hips and a scalloped lead apron; a plain tile roof that carried a lot of poor repairs, replaced with brown Sandtoft double pantiles, dry hips, dry valleys and new lead flashings to the chimney stacks; and a dormer bungalow re-roofed in charcoal double pantiles, where the dormer’s leaking felt roof was renewed in a liquid-applied system and the dormer clad in anthracite.

Possibly not. The council's appraisal records clay pantile as the prevalent covering in the conservation area, with Welsh slate also found in abundance, and on a listed building work is generally restricted to like-for-like repair unless consent is obtained. A different material could therefore need permission, and in some instances listed building consent as well; that question is one for East Riding of Yorkshire Council to answer before any order goes ahead.

Often not. For the Grosvenor Place conservation area the council advises that concrete tiles should be avoided, not least because their use on a historic roof structure can cause damage through the extra weight. The Beverley appraisal adds that older concrete tiles have a habit of losing their colour over time. On a period roof, then, the structure and the match both need checking before an order goes in.

In part. Tickton lies about four kilometres north-east of Beverley, and its historic core around Main Street has been a small conservation area since February 2009, separate from the town's own. Clay pantiles are the dominant covering in the village, with some Welsh slate, and modern properties provide examples of concrete tiles. Outside that core there is more freedom over materials, but East Riding of Yorkshire Council remains the authority to ask.
