Roofing & property care in Skipwith
Skipwith is a small village about four miles north-east of Selby, home to roughly 260 people. Its church of St Helen has Saxon fabric in the nave and tower, the early eighteenth-century Skipwith Hall is Grade II* listed, and the village school of 1714 has served as the village hall since 1959. Just to the south-west lies Skipwith Common, the former RAF Riccall airfield and now a national nature reserve.
For owners, and for anyone managing let property in a village like this, roof care works best when it is planned. Advanced Property Care offers roofing and property maintenance in Skipwith for landlords, letting agents, property managers and homeowners, with inspections, photo reports and repairs. Quotes are free and in writing, and we can work through a list of jobs over time rather than all at once.

Roofs in Skipwith: what we look out for
Skipwith combines a historic core with later houses. The older buildings, including brick cottages and farmhouses, typically carry clay pantile or slate roofs with chimney stacks, lead flashings and timber eaves that need regular attention. Later homes are more likely to have concrete tiles, UPVC roofline and flat-roofed garages or extensions, each with their own maintenance cycle. Converted farm buildings, common in villages around Selby, add long roof runs and valleys.
The common, with its woodland, heath and ponds, brings trees, birds and damp air close to many properties, so gutters fill faster with debris and moss grows readily on shaded slopes. Older chimneys need repointing and their flashings checking, while pantile roofs need slipped tiles refixed before wind gets under them. Regular inspection is the simplest way to stop these small issues turning into stained ceilings and damaged timbers.

Roofing & Property Maintenance for Skipwith homes
We carry out roof and roofline inspections that cover tiles and slates, ridges, chimneys, flashings, gutters, downpipes, fascias, soffits and any flat roofs. You receive a photo report showing what we found, what needs doing now and what can wait, so you can budget and plan sensibly. Older and listed buildings are noted as such, so work can be planned with the right materials.
We then carry out the work as planned maintenance, such as gutter clearing, ridge re-bedding or chimney flashing repairs, or as reactive repairs when something fails, for example after a storm. For let properties, we can coordinate access with tenants and send the report and photos directly to the landlord or agent. Each visit adds to a dated record of the building.

Questions from Skipwith homeowners
Anything else you would like to know? Call us on 07338 612197 and we will happily talk it through.
Our property is a listed building. Can you still carry out maintenance?
Routine like-for-like maintenance, such as refixing slipped tiles or clearing gutters, is generally fine, but changes to materials or details on a listed building may need consent. Our photo report highlights where work could affect the character of the roof, so you can check with the local planning authority before deciding.
Can you inspect a property that is between lets?
Yes, and the gap between tenancies is a good time to do it. An empty house means easy access to lofts and the rooms below the roof. We will check the roof, gutters and roofline and send a photo report, so any repairs can be completed before the next tenant moves in.
What does a photo report include?
It includes clear, dated photos of each roof slope, chimney, flashing, gutter run and any flat roofs, with short notes on condition. Issues are marked as urgent, plan soon or monitor, and we add a written quote for anything that needs doing. It is a simple record you can keep with your property files.
