Church & Heritage Roofing in Cleveleys
DAC-faculty work, sand-cast lead, matched natural slate, staged invoicing for grants.
PCC members, churchwardens and heritage building trustees — where every intervention has to satisfy a Diocesan Advisory Committee, a conservation officer, or a Historic England caseworker.
Why Cleveleys church or heritage buildings call us
A quinquennial inspection has flagged the roof, lead has been stolen and needs a like-for-like reinstatement, or a chancel-repair liability discussion is on the table.
How we work in the church or heritage building sector
Faculty jurisdiction (DAC), Listed Building Consent, and CDM 2015. Materials to Historic England technical guidance — Code 5 or Code 6 milled lead, matched Westmorland or Welsh slate, lime mortar.
Priced against a quinquennial architect's specification, funded via grants (National Churches Trust, ChurchCare, Allchurches, Heritage Lottery) with staged drawdowns you claim against our staged invoices.
Every Cleveleys church or heritage building job includes
- Work strictly to the architect's specification and DAC faculty
- Sand-cast or milled lead to Historic England technical guidance
- Traditional lime-mortar pointing where required
- Photographic record for the parish or trust archive
- Staged invoicing aligned to grant drawdowns
- Anti-theft roof alarms fitted as standard on lead work
Who signs off — and how we make that easy
Architect specifies, PCC approves, DAC issues the faculty, Historic England is consulted at Grade I / II*. We work to the architect's spec — we don't propose changes without them.
Materials bias for church or heritage buildings: Code 5/6 milled sand-cast lead, matched natural slate (Welsh, Westmorland, Burlington), traditional lime mortar for pointing, hand-dressed lead detailing on parapets and cheeks.
Cleveleys church or heritage building questions we answer weekly
Do you work to a DAC faculty specification?
Always. We don't propose or substitute materials — the architect's spec and the faculty are the brief, in that order.
Can you fit an anti-theft roof alarm with new leadwork?
Yes — we fit an Ecclesiastical-approved roof alarm as part of any lead reinstatement, which usually satisfies the insurer's condition.
Do you invoice against grant drawdowns?
Yes — staged invoices aligned to your grant drawdown schedule (typically 25/50/25 or 30/40/30) so cashflow works both ways.
