Halstead's wide High Street is dominated by the 14th-century Church of St Andrew, which was extensively renovated in the Victorian period. A town centre with that much age in it does not give up easy roofs. Coverings vary from one property to the next, shared valleys and gutters need care, and safe access has to be set up properly rather than a ladder thrown against the pavement side. We take on pitched roof repairs and re-roofs, flat roofs over back additions, chimney flashings and leadwork, fascias, soffits and guttering, along with storm damage and the sort of leak that only shows itself in heavy rain. If a roof needs stripping and redoing we will say so, and if a repair will hold we will say that instead. We cover Halstead and the neighbouring parish of Greenstead Green and Halstead Rural.
Halstead lies on the River Colne, 6 miles north-east of Braintree and 12 miles north-west of Colchester. The Halstead Town Centre conservation area was designated on 7 August 1969. Townsford Mill (listed as Old Townford Mill) is grade II*, three storeys and weatherboarded with roofs in grey slate, and it stands astride the river.
Factory Terrace on Factory Lane East is two blocks of three-storey industrial tenements built by Courtaulds in 1872, red brick with a grey slate roof, listed grade II. Elsewhere in town it is the usual mix: pitched main roofs in slate or tile, with flat coverings over rear extensions, porches and garages.
