Compton is chalk escarpment village immediately south of Winchester with high-value detached properties on exposed chalk ridge above the Itchen Valley. The Victorian farmhouses and cottages in the village core; larger interwar and post-war detached properties on the upper slopes with significant wind exposure means re-roofing work here spans a range of material requirements. The chalk escarpment above the Itchen Valley with the highest wind exposure of any area in the coverage zone; north and west-facing pitches face unobstructed south-westerlies. exposed chalk ridge position means ridge mortar failure is widespread; plain clay tile sourcing required for Victorian farmhouse and cottage stock. We survey every property individually and confirm the correct material specification before any tile is ordered — including physical samples where period material matching is required.
