Fordham in Cambridgeshire sits roughly eight miles south-west of Mildenhall on the edge of the Fens, and like many villages in this part of East Anglia it combines older brick and flint cottages with significant post-war and late-twentieth century housing expansion. The village has grown considerably over the decades and there is a solid stock of 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s bungalows and semi-detached houses here, all now at or past the age where original felt underlays and tile fixings begin to fail. Bungalow roofs in particular are something we see a lot of in Fordham — the shallower pitches common on 1960s and 1970s builds can allow water ingress long before it becomes visible inside, so a proactive inspection can save a costly repair bill. We cover Fordham regularly and can arrange a free roof survey at a time that suits you.

Fordham sits on the River Snail and has historically been a market village serving the surrounding Fenland agricultural community. Its position on flat Cambridgeshire farmland means roofs are exposed to the same driving rain and wind that affects the wider Fenland region.
Good proportion of post-war bungalows and semi-detached houses from the 1960s–1980s, alongside older village cottages built from brick and flint. Some more recent infill development also present.
