Great Dunmow is a thriving market town in mid-Essex, sitting on the A120 roughly thirty miles south of Haverhill. It's grown considerably in recent decades, with new residential estates added to the edge of the historic town centre, meaning its housing stock is genuinely mixed — from 15th and 16th century timber-framed buildings on the high street to large 1990s and 2000s detached houses and ongoing new builds. The older properties often have clay plain tiles or natural slate, while the newer estates typically use concrete interlocking or fibre cement slates. We work across all of these and can advise on the right repair or replacement approach for whatever you have.

Great Dunmow is famous for the Flitch of Bacon ceremony, a medieval tradition revived in the 19th century. Its position on the A120 and proximity to Stansted Airport has made it a popular commuter and logistics hub, driving significant housing growth over the past thirty years.
Historic timber-framed properties in the town centre sit alongside large 1990s–2000s detached and semi-detached estates. Ongoing development on the outskirts adds modern new builds with low-pitch roofs and fibre cement slates.
