Roofing in Frome — What to Know

Frome has one of the more varied housing stocks in Somerset. The town centre and Trinity area contain a significant concentration of 17th and 18th century properties — Georgian terraces on streets like Sheppard’s Barton and Wine Street are common, many of them listed or within the conservation area. These properties typically use natural slate or plain clay tiles, and any repair or replacement work needs to use appropriate materials to satisfy planning requirements. LH Roofing can advise on suitable options before any work starts.

Victorian and Edwardian red brick terraces make up much of the residential stock radiating out from the centre, with interwar semis and post-war builds further out. Chimney stacks are a recurring source of repair work across all these eras — repointing, failed flaunching, and lead flashing failures are among the most common jobs on period properties in Frome.

Frome sits in a valley carved by the River Frome, and the hilly terrain affects how water moves off roofs and through drainage systems. Gutters on older properties bear a disproportionate load in heavy rain, and blocked or failing rainwater goods are a frequent cause of damp ingress into walls and fascias. Regular gutter clearance and maintenance is particularly worthwhile on properties in lower-lying streets.
