Scarcroft is large detached houses on wide plots along the ridge, with older stone farmhouses and cottages tucked in among the newer money. Scarcroft is roughly half an hour from Harrogate down the A61 or A658, and we are on that side of the county most weeks. The same handful of faults come up again and again on Scarcroft roofs, and we know which of them need a repair and which are the roof telling you it is done.

Roofing in Scarcroft usually means a substantial roof with several pitches, hips, dormers, an integral garage and often a conservatory or garden room added later. Scarcroft roofers see a lot of leadwork and a lot of junctions, and very little of the repetitive estate work that fills the day elsewhere. Every quote here is specific to the house.
What leaks is almost always a junction someone detailed cheaply. Conservatory and orangery abutments sealed with mastic, lead valleys on a complicated hip arrangement that have split along the fold, and flat-roofed link sections between the house and the garage with no fall in them. On the older stone properties the work is traditional: stone slate re-fixing, lime repointing to the stacks and stone verge repair. Roof repairs Scarcroft owners ask about are seldom urgent but they are usually overdue.
The ridge position is the thing to understand here. The houses sit high with open farmland and the golf course around them, and the wind comes across without obstruction from the north and west. Ridge and hip tiles bedded in mortar loosen faster in this exposure than they do down in the city, and the mature specimen trees in these gardens fill valleys and gutters every autumn. Both are easy to stay ahead of and expensive to ignore.
