Wath-in-Nidderdale lies on the valley floor just east of the River Nidd and a short distance south of Gouthwaite Reservoir dam.
Wooded slopes rise to the east; the wider landscape is classic Upper Nidderdale within the National Landscape.
We know the stone types, roof styles and access constraints common around Wath and the upper dale.
We schedule around rural access and weather windows so work is completed efficiently.
Kevin remains your contact from first call through to final tidy-up.
Yes. We regularly work in Wath-in-Nidderdale and the surrounding Nidderdale villages. Travel from Harrogate is straightforward.
Pointing on sandstone walls, stone-slate roof repairs, guttering and damp control are frequent requests because of the valley-floor location and older stock.
We are used to vernacular Nidderdale materials and will discuss matching or sympathetic repairs before starting.
Most enquiries receive a response the same or next working day. Site visits are arranged at a time that suits you.
