Many Cotswold stone roofs highlight intricate details that we specialize in, including Cotswold stone tiling with detailed lead work and lime mortar detailing. Among these features, the swept valley stands out, demanding the highest level of craftsmanship and often regarded as a prime example of the slater's art. Skilled Cotswold roofers excel in constructing this specialised feature, making it a hallmark of historic roofing projects in the region.
Stone Tiling
The Cotswolds
Stone Roofing
Traditionally, Cotswold roofers secured stone tiles by hanging them over sturdy lathes with oak pegs. These pegs were tightly fastened through holes drilled at the top of the stone tiles using a tool known as a picking hammer. Today, we still employ some of these traditional methods in Cotswold stone tiling when working on historic roofing projects.

Stone Roofing
Years ago, roofs were not covered with felt; instead, they were torched with lime mortar. Today, Cotswold roofing specialists commonly recommend a breathable membrane. However, traditional methods, in Cotswold stone tiling, are still employed on certain listed buildings and historic roofing projects.
