Heritage property specialist services in Solihull

Heritage property work focuses on repairing, maintaining and restoring older buildings using methods and materials that suit traditional construction.

This can include period homes, listed buildings and properties built with lime mortar, stone or solid walls.

A heritage property specialist in Solihull can assess existing fabric, identify appropriate repair techniques and carry out work that respects the original structure.

Heritage roofing services in Solihull

Heritage roofing involves repairing or maintaining traditional roof coverings and structures while preserving the character of the building. This type of work often includes:

  • Slate or clay tile roof repairs
  • Stone slate roofing
  • Timber roof structure repairs
  • Lead flashing and detailing
  • Chimney and parapet repairs
  • Breathable roofing membranes where appropriate

A heritage roofing specialist in Solihull can confirm suitable materials and methods based on the age and construction of the property.

Heritage damp solutions for traditional buildings

Damp in heritage properties is often caused by trapped moisture rather than water ingress alone.

Heritage damp solutions focus on allowing buildings to breathe rather than sealing them with modern materials. Typical approaches include:

  • Lime plaster repairs
  • Lime mortar repointing
  • Improving ventilation and airflow
  • Addressing ground levels and drainage
  • Removing unsuitable modern renders or coatings
  • Repairing defective rainwater goods

In traditional buildings, a heritage damp specialist in Solihull will usually focus on moisture movement and breathability rather than sealed treatments.

How much does heritage property work cost in Solihull?

Costs vary widely depending on the size of the property, the level of specialist work required and the materials involved. Below are some average estimated costs for heritage property work in the UK:

  • Building renovation cost – £1,200-£1,500 per m2

  • Farmhouse renovation – £18,000-£240,000

Final costs are usually confirmed after surveys and material assessments. Learn more about pricing in our guide to farmhouse renovation costs.

How heritage property repairs differ from standard building work

Older buildings behave differently from modern construction and often require alternative techniques. Key differences include:

  • Use of breathable materials such as lime rather than cement
  • Repairing existing fabric rather than replacing it
  • Slower drying times and staged repair processes
  • Greater emphasis on moisture management
  • Careful detailing to preserve original features

A heritage property specialist in Solihull can explain why these methods are important for long-term building health.
