Fordham sits on the edge of the chalk belt where the fen gives way to slightly higher ground, and its older housing stock reflects that — a village where original materials matter and replacements need to be chosen with care.
The village centre around Mildenhall Road has some attractive older brick properties with plain clay tiles, and there are newer cul-de-sac developments where concrete tiles installed in the 1980s and 90s are now reaching the end of their life. Concrete roof tiles in this area typically last 30–40 years before they become porous and brittle, and many Fordham roofs from that era are at or beyond that threshold now.
We supply and fit a range of replacement tiles, from natural slate through to modern fibre cement and clay options that complement the existing streetscape. If you're in Fordham and your loft shows damp staining or you've had a run of slipped tiles, call us for a free roof replacement survey — we'll tell you straight whether you need a full strip or whether targeted repairs will see you right.
