Hartham sits alongside the River Avon between Chippenham town centre and the rural south. The riverside location creates the highest moisture exposure in the Chippenham area — lead corrosion is measurably faster here, and moss growth on north-facing slopes is the most aggressive in our coverage.
Victorian and Edwardian properties near the river with post-war housing further inland. The riverside Victorian stock has some of the most demanding maintenance profiles in Chippenham due to the combination of age and moisture exposure.
Lead valley and flashing failures accelerated by river moisture are the primary call — we specify code 5 lead on exposed riverside elements as standard. Aggressive moss on north-facing slopes is the secondary maintenance category.
The River Avon creates conditions at Hartham that require specification adjustments compared to inland Chippenham properties. Code 5 lead, 2-year moss cleaning cycles, and annual gutter clearing are standard recommendations here.

01249 247 076Hartham is a riverside area north of Chippenham with a mix of older stone and brick property and Hartham Park's period estate, close to the Avon watermeadows. On this kind of stock, the problems we see most in Hartham are heavy moss on the shaded riverside roofs, blocked valleys from the mature tree cover, and leadwork on the older period stock. Hartham sits right on the Avon, so humidity is high, moss growth fast and drying slow, especially on the riverside slopes.
We check gutter condition, the fascia behind, and the falls from access level.
Repair, replace gutters only, or full roofline — whichever the actual condition justifies.
A fixed price with the guttering, any fascia work and access itemised separately.
New uPVC guttering fitted to the correct falls, with new brackets and downpipes.
Old materials removed, flow tested, and the work guaranteed.
| Job | Typical duration |
|---|---|
| Gutter clear & refix | 1–2 hours |

Gutter work runs year-round; heavy rain simply makes a good day to spot exactly where the overflow is coming from.
Hartham's riverside and estate properties vary from tight period plots to open grounds; period and stone stock often needs matching materials. Scaffold and skip permits go through Wiltshire Council, and on the lanes toward Hartham Park we allow extra time for setup. Access is always itemised in your written quote, never a hidden extra.
Workmanship carries our 10-year guarantee; uPVC guttering carries a manufacturer product guarantee (typically up to 25 years) on top.
