Pewsham is a modern development estate with gentle terrain and no unusual exposure. The defining characteristic is the uniform build phase: virtually every property was built to the same specification in the same window.
Almost entirely 1995–2010 development with concrete interlocking tile and single-storey rear extensions with felt flat roofs throughout. The flat roofs are now 25–35 years old — the most concentrated flat roof maintenance zone in Chippenham.
Felt flat roof failures on rear extensions are the primary call — more GRP flat roof calls come from Pewsham than any other single Chippenham area. UPVC guttering joint failures on original 1990s–2000s stock are the secondary call.
Pewsham's uniform build phase means the maintenance cycle is concentrated: in any given year, hundreds of extensions reach the same threshold simultaneously. GRP replacement at the same cost bracket as re-felting, with a 25-year guarantee, is our standard recommendation for every Pewsham flat roof call.
Single installation: £400–£700. Replacement: £200–£450. Flat roof light: £500–£900. Flashing repair: £150–£350. Free quote — call 01249 247 076.

Usually not. Most leaking Velux windows have a failed flashing kit, not a failed window. Flashing kit replacement costs £150–£350 versus £400–£700 for a new window.
