More details →Garstang is a traditional Lancashire market town straddling the River Wyre in the heart of the Fylde plain. The town centre contains a concentration of Georgian and early Victorian properties built in local sandstone, including a number on Churchgate and High Street that form part of Garstang's Conservation Area. These properties require lime mortar pointing and careful material matching that differs significantly from standard modern roofwork.
Outside the town centre, the surrounding agricultural landscape contains a large number of stone farmhouses and converted barns, particularly along the lanes between Cabus, Catterall and Barnacre. These rural properties sit in exposed positions on the Wyre plain, facing unobstructed south-westerly winds from the Fylde coast. Roof coverings on north and west elevations accumulate heavy moss growth in the damp conditions between the valley and the upland edge above Wyresdale.
Moss and algae growth on north-facing slopes is the most visible roofing issue across Garstang's rural hinterland — the combination of high humidity from the Wyre valley, mature tree shelter belts and low winter sun angles creates ideal moss conditions on stone properties. Lime mortar failure on sandstone chimney stacks is common across the older town centre stock. Concrete tile estates on the town's residential fringe from the 1970s and 80s are now generating ridge and verge re-bedding demand.

"Georgian stone farmhouse south of Garstang. They matched the original Welsh slate for the section over the dairy and re-pointed the chimney stacks in lime. Excellent knowledge of period properties."
"Bungalow on the Wyre side of Garstang needed a new roof. They re-roofed in concrete tiles, done in four days and no mess whatsoever. Really pleased."
"Called after the ridge tiles started lifting. They came out, quoted on the spot and re-bedded the full ridge the next morning. Quick, honest and fair price."
