Major Transformation in Papplewick!
This one was a major transformation in Papplewick!
We recently had the pleasure of working on this beautiful old converted hay barn in Papplewick, Nottingham, dating back to around the 1800s and forming part of an old group of farm buildings.
The existing roof had seen better days, with old slates in a seriously deteriorated condition and a fair amount of rotten timber underneath.
After carefully stripping the old roof, we carried out extensive timber repairs, replacing rotten rafters and other structural timberwork where required.
The new roof was then completed using a lightweight composite slate, giving the building a traditional appearance while providing a much more durable and practical roofing system.
We also installed:
Maintenance-free dry hip and ridge systems
New leadwork
Full chimney repointing
Extensive rafter and timber repairs
All structural works carried out in accordance with a Structural Engineer’s Report
Work completed with Building Control inspections and to current Building Regulations
And what a difference!
From a roof that was badly deteriorated and in need of serious attention, to a fully renewed, structurally sound and great-looking roof that complements this fantastic old building.
Swipe through the before & after photos to see the transformation for yourself.
We absolutely love jobs like this — especially when you get to breathe new life into an old building while retaining its original character.
If your roof is showing its age, you’ve got structural concerns, or you’re looking to restore an older property, give us a message. We’re happy to come and take a look and provide a free, no-obligation quotation.
