Alcester's Roman-founded core is dense with timber-framed and Georgian frontages — Malt Mill Lane is a conservation showpiece — needing permit-controlled access, while Kinwarton and the Oversley estates are open and modern. Pavement scaffold and skip permits go through Stratford-on-Avon District Council; allow a few working days on streets like Malt Mill Lane, Butter Street, Henley Street where space is tight.
Good to knowDisruption, Mess & Weather
There is noise and skip traffic for several days and some dust; we protect the garden and drive, and you do not need to be home for external work. You do not need to stay home for external work - we just need power and access agreed in advance.
Re-roofs run in most weather; we phase the strip so only a manageable area is open at once and it is watertight overnight. Sitting where the Arrow meets the Alne, Alcester's low centre holds damp; clay peg tile dominates the older roofs and moss favours the shaded riverside slopes.
