## Roofing on the highest ground in the Cotswolds
Stow-on-the-Wold stands higher than any other town in the Cotswolds, and every roof in it pays for the view. The buildings around the Market Square and the lanes running off it are limestone, with stone slate and natural slate coverings, tall chimney stacks and lead detailing that has been renewed many times over the centuries. Exposure here is relentless and it is the single biggest factor in how these roofs fail.

Storm damage is consequently the work we are called to most. Wind at this altitude finds any weakness: a loose ridge, a verge whose mortar has cracked, a slate whose peg has rotted. Once one unit moves, the wind has a purchase and the damage spreads along the line. Emergency cover runs 24 hours a day with a typical storm-damage response within 45 minutes, and making a roof safe fast is what keeps a repair from becoming a re-roof.

Alongside storm work we carry out a steady amount of heritage renewal in the town: sorting and re-setting weathered stone slates, renewing hand-dressed lead in valleys and to abutments, repointing and rebuilding stacks, and stripping out cement fillets that cracked years ago and have been letting water in ever since.

Whether it is an emergency call-out or planned work, everything is inspected properly and quoted as one fixed written figure before we start. Fully insured and qualified, with all work backed by our quality workmanship guarantee.

We are based in Chipping Norton — a short run west from Chipping Norton — and cover Stow-on-the-Wold as part of our wider coverage across Oxfordshire, Warwickshire and the Cotswolds. See how we work or get in touch for a fixed written quote.

## Why choose Daylesford Roofing in Stow-on-the-Wold

### Genuine 24/7 storm response
In the most exposed town we cover, availability is the trust signal that counts. Emergency cover runs 24 hours a day with a typical response within 45 minutes, and you deal directly with Troy rather than a call centre.

### 22 years working high, exposed roofs
Troy Burton&#x27;s 22 years of experience includes a great deal of work on high Cotswold ground, which shapes how ridges, verges and fixings are specified rather than simply repeating what failed last time.

### Fixed written quotes, even on urgent work
Emergency jobs are exactly where day rates hurt most, so we do the opposite: the roof is made safe, then the repair is quoted as one fixed written figure before it proceeds.

### Insured, qualified and guaranteed
Fully insured and qualified, with all work — including emergency make-safe work — backed by our quality workmanship guarantee.

## Common roofing problems in Stow-on-the-Wold

### Extreme wind exposure at altitude
At the top of the Cotswold escarpment there is no shelter at all. Wind loading is high and sustained, and it works continuously at every edge of the roof: ridges, hips, verges and abutments all loosen years sooner than they would lower down.

### Weathered stone slates and rotten pegs
Centuries of exposure erode the stone&#x27;s face and rot the oak pegs behind it. Slates slip individually until a gap gives the wind somewhere to start, at which point a slow problem becomes an urgent one overnight.

### Severe freeze-thaw damage
Frost is harder and more frequent here. Water trapped in an open joint or a cracked verge freezes, expands and opens the defect further, so small autumn faults reliably become winter leaks.

### Tall exposed chimney stacks
Stacks on Stow properties are tall and wet on every side. Mortar erodes, pots loosen and lead lifts, and water then runs down inside the masonry to appear on a ceiling well away from the chimney breast.

### Historic fabric with little tolerance for water
Old timber, lath and plaster inside these buildings suffer quickly once a roof lets water through. That is why making a damaged roof safe within the hour matters far more here than the cost of the eventual repair.

## How we work, in Stow-on-the-Wold and everywhere else

- 01
### Your call is answered by the roofer
You speak to Troy, not a call centre. He&#x27;ll ask what you&#x27;re seeing — a stain on a ceiling, slates in the garden, water tracking down a chimney breast — and tell you honestly whether it needs looking at this week or watching for now. Emergencies are dealt with straight away, 24 hours a day.

- 02
### A proper inspection, not a glance from the drive
We get up to the roof, into the loft where access allows, and look at the covering, the battens, the flashings, the valleys and the stack. Leaks are traced back to what has actually failed, because water very rarely enters where it appears inside.

- 03
### A fixed written quote before anything starts
You get one clear figure covering labour, materials, access and clearance — never a day rate that grows as the week goes on. If we find something that genuinely changes the scope, you hear about it before a decision is made, not afterwards.

- 04
### The work carried out cleanly and correctly
Safe access set up, materials matched to your property, weathering details formed properly in lead rather than sealant, and the site left tidy at the end of every day. Fully insured and qualified throughout.

- 05
### Final check, then a guarantee that means something
We walk the finished job with you and explain what was done and why. All work is backed by our quality workmanship guarantee, and if you have a question a year later, you&#x27;re calling the same person who did the roof.
