Cocklebury sits between central Chippenham and the Pewsham development, with moderate exposure. The 1970s and 1980s housing creates a maintenance profile that bridges the nail sickness era and the flat roof era.
1970s properties are entering the early nail sickness phase — still at the optimal intervention window where phased re-roofing is cost-effective. 1980s additions have flat roofs and UPVC guttering now 40–45 years old.
Early nail sickness on 1970s properties is the primary emerging call — tiles loosening rather than displacing at the Hardenhuish rate. 1980s flat roof failures are the secondary category, with fascia and gutter deterioration across both eras.
Cocklebury is at the optimal intervention point for nail sickness — early enough to phase the work, late enough that the problem is confirmed rather than suspected. We advise on the most cost-effective intervention for each slope's condition.
Fascia and soffit replacement across Chippenham's neighbourhoods is driven by housing era. Original timber fascia on 1960s–70s properties is now 55–65 years old and almost universally rotten despite repeated painting. 1990s–2000s UPVC fascia is 25–35 years old and beginning its first replacement cycle on some properties.
UPVC replacement is our standard recommendation on most Chippenham properties — no maintenance, 25-year product guarantee, available in profiles that match original dimensions. Guttering replacement is included in fascia jobs as standard — scaffold is already in position and gutters come off to access the fascia anyway. We assess fascia condition on every guttering visit.
