Aykley Heads is a suburban pocket inside Durham, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Durham job. We plan around longer single-vehicle drives that often need widening or re-shaping. That's why this page exists separately to ourDurham page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
Every area has its own requirements. Here's what we consider when working in Aykley Heads.
How we adapt for this area:
Existing roof insulation is assessed and upgraded where possible during re-roofing work.
We protect driveway surfaces with boarding where scaffolding base plates could cause damage.
We install scaffold netting and sheeting to keep dust and debris from affecting neighbouring properties.
County Durham combines a rich mining heritage with a historic cathedral city and growing new-build communities. The county's housing stock includes traditional pit villages, Georgian and Victorian properties in Durham city, and modern estates in towns like Newton Aycliffe and Peterlee.
Durham is a UNESCO World Heritage city dominated by its Norman cathedral and castle. Housing ranges from student lets and Georgian terraces in the city centre to family homes in surrounding villages. Conservation area rules apply across much of the historic core.
This is one of our busiest areas — we have multiple teams working here most weeks.

These characterful properties combine ground-floor living with loft rooms, often needing specialist dormer roofing work.
