The roofs in Beverley
Outside the historic core, Beverley is a mix of Victorian and interwar housing and substantial modern estates on the edges of the town. The older stock tends to need ridge, verge, chimney and leadwork long before the covering itself. The newer estates are the familiar concrete tile and felt combination reaching the end of the line together.
Beverley has a large conservation area around the Minster and Saturday Market, so on older property in the centre the covering and the detailing need to be sympathetic as well as watertight.
Valley work in Beverley often runs alongside chimney and ridge work on older property, where several details are reaching the end of their lives at once. Doing them together while the access is up is the sensible sequence.
What valley replacements in Beverley involves
- Lead valleysTraditional lead lined valleys formed in the correct code, on new boarding, with the tiles cut and bedded to a clean line.
- Mitred and swept valleysOn plain tile roofs where the original detail is a mitred or swept valley, restored rather than replaced with a trough.
- Metal valleysPreformed metal valley sections where the roof and covering suit them.
That is the short version. There is a fuller explanation of the work, the materials and the detailing on our valley replacements page.
Signs your Beverley property needs this
- Cement mortar filling the valley, which is a previous repair and a certain future leak
- Tiles along the valley cut badly, sitting proud or slipping into the channel
- Cracked or split lead visible in the valley
Why cement in a valley always fails
It is very common to find a valley that somebody has filled with sand and cement, either to stop a leak or to tidy up badly cut tiles. It never lasts. Cement is rigid, the valley moves, and the mortar cracks along its whole length. Worse, it blocks the channel, so water that should be running away sits against the tile edges and finds its way underneath.

FAQs
Valley replacements in Beverley, questions we get asked
How do I know it is the valley leaking?
Valley leaks usually show up in the room below the junction of two roof slopes and keep coming back after tiles have been replaced. From the roof a failed valley is normally obvious, which is why we look before quoting.
How long does a valley replacement take?
Most domestic valleys are a one to two day job with access in place, depending on length and how much tiling has to be lifted back.
Do you cover Beverley?
Yes. Beverley is covered by our Hull office on 01482 961 240, and valley replacements is one of the services we run there every week. We also cover Cottingham and Bransholme from the same office.
How quickly can you get to Beverley for valley replacements?
Ring the Hull office on 01482 961 240 and we will give you a real date rather than a flattering one. Beverley is about 8 miles north west of Hull, so it is part of that team's normal patch.
Will you quote valley replacements over the phone?
No. We survey the roof first, photograph what we find and put the quote in writing. A price given without seeing the roof is a guess.
Do you need to see the roof before quoting?
Yes, always. A roof quote given without seeing the roof is a number somebody hopes is high enough, and it is the reason so many people end up with a price that changes once work starts.
