Lowden occupies the western side of Chippenham toward Corsham, with the proximity to the conservation area meaning some older properties have conservation-appropriate materials requirements alongside the standard estate housing profile.
Victorian and Edwardian properties on the town edge transitioning to post-war and 1970s–80s housing further west. The Corsham proximity means some properties have clay plain tile rather than the concrete interlocking dominant elsewhere in west Chippenham.
Lead valley failures on Victorian stock; early nail sickness on 1970s properties; and flat roof extension failures across both build phases. Clay tile matching required on period properties near the Corsham edge.
Lowden's position between the Victorian conservation area boundary and the post-war estate housing means we carry a broader material range to Lowden visits than to single-era areas — clay tile, lime mortar, concrete profiles and GRP materials.
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.
