Why choose us?
48-hour consultations
Fast consultation appointments to help you start your project without unnecessary delays.
Minimal disruption guaranteed
Efficient project management to keep disruption to your home or business to a minimum.
Historic character respected
Specialist workmanship that preserves the original character and architectural features of historic properties.
Careful repairs for historic roofs and buildings
Listed buildings need repair work that protects their character as well as their structure. We carry out listed building services for domestic and commercial properties, using high-quality materials that suit the age and style of the building. A slipped slate, tired leadwork or failing roofline can quickly let water in and cause bigger trouble if it's left alone.
We've spent 20 years working on roofing projects, and that experience helps us make sensible decisions on older properties where modern shortcuts just don't belong. Black Dog Roofing Ltd gives you friendly, personal advice at every stage, so you understand what needs doing and why. From our base in Calne, we help you keep historic buildings sound, practical and true to their original look.

A thoughtful approach from the first visit
Our consultation can usually be arranged within 48 hours, which helps when you need clear advice before a small defect turns into a costly repair. Older buildings often need a steadier hand, especially where lead details, traditional coverings or awkward roof shapes are involved. As a Lead Sheet Association member, we follow recognised standards for leadwork that suits conservation-focused repairs.
We also take the time to look at how the roof has aged, because patching one area without understanding the wider problem can store up more expense for you later. We work across Calne and nearby areas with the kind of personal service that's getting harder to find.
Why specialist listed building repairs matter
Your building's age affects how repairs should be planned, because older structures move, breathe and weather differently from newer ones. Our careful repair work helps preserve original features that give your property its value and appearance. Using suitable materials can also help new work sit more naturally alongside existing sections. That matters when you want repairs to last without making the building look patched or out of place.
