Icklingham is a small, scattered settlement on the edge of the Breckland heathland, where exposed conditions and traditional building stock make choosing the right roofing system more important than most people realise.
Most residential properties in Icklingham are older rural cottages, some with thatched origins later converted to plain tile or slate. The heathland setting means roofs here face significant wind exposure, and we select materials — fixing methods, batten gauges, and underlay specification — with that in mind rather than simply going for the cheapest option. A new roof in this environment needs to be built to last 40 years or more, not just pass an inspection on day one.
We cover Icklingham as part of our regular Breckland area work and are happy to carry out a free no-obligation survey on any property in the village.
