Roofer in Kings Norton, Birmingham

Roofing in Kings Norton, Birmingham (B30/B38)

Kings Norton has one of the most interesting roofing environments in south Birmingham. At its heart is the medieval village green — The Green — around which sits a cluster of genuinely historic buildings including the Church of St Nicolas, the former grammar school (now known as The Old Grammar School, dating to the 15th century), and a range of listed timber-framed and Georgian properties. This historic village core is a designated conservation area, and any roofing work on properties within it requires careful attention to both planning requirements and appropriate traditional materials.

Beyond the conservation area, Kings Norton spreads into a large and varied residential neighbourhood. The inter-war period left a significant legacy here: large swathes of Kings Norton were developed in the 1920s, 30s and 40s with semi-detached houses that are now in need of roof overhauls. The concrete interlocking tiles used on many of these properties from the 1960s and 70s onwards have a finite lifespan, and ridge tile re-pointing and general repairs are very common maintenance requirements. There are also areas of post-war social housing and more recent private development on the outer edges of the neighbourhood.

We work across the full range of Kings Norton’s housing stock — from careful repair work on the historic properties on The Green and surrounding conservation area streets, to straightforward flat roof replacements and guttering work on the interwar semis that make up the bulk of the area. We are familiar with the conservation area requirements and can advise on what planning permission may or may not be needed before starting work.
