Roof repairs

Cracked and slipped tiles, tired flashing, a lifted verge, a loose ridge, and leaks nobody has managed to trace yet.

New roof and re-roofing

Stripping the old covering off and starting again, and how to tell when that has genuinely become the cheaper road.

Flat roofing

Single ply, EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass and felt on extensions, dormers, garages and porches, and why the edges give out first.

Emergency roofer

Water coming through the ceiling today. The first hour, what a fair call-out costs, and the doorstep offer to refuse.

Tiling and slating

Clay pantiles, plain tiles, concrete tiles and natural slate, including matching work on older Wisbech roofs.

Chimney repairs

Flaunching, repointing, flashings, capping and full removal, and why a stack is the first suspect when a ceiling stains.

Guttering, fascias and soffits

Cheap to do, easy to put off, and the putting off turns up later as rotten timber and a far bigger bill.

Roof cleaning and moss removal

The cases where it genuinely helps, the cases where it is simply being sold to you, and the damage a careless clean does.

Not sure which one you need?

Most people arrive with a symptom rather than a diagnosis, which is entirely normal. A rough guide:

A damp patch on a ceiling means water is getting in somewhere, and more often than not the culprit is a chimney or a flashing rather than the tiles themselves. Start with roof leaks.
A tile on the lawn after a windy night is a repair, and a cheap one if it is dealt with before the gap starts letting water in. See roof repairs.
A ridge or verge that looks uneven from the pavement is worth taking seriously on an exposed site, because that is where wind gets its grip. See roof repairs.
Several separate problems in one year on an old covering is the point at which repairs stop adding up. See new roofs.
Water dripping into the house right now is an emergency. See emergency roofer.
Gutters overflowing or water running down a wall is guttering, and it damages the roof if it is left. See guttering, fascias and soffits.

If none of that fits, describe it in the form in your own words. The roofers will work it out.

Frequently asked questions

Not all of them, and that is deliberate. Flat roofing, heritage matching work and chimney work are genuinely different specialisms.

We match your job to firms that do that type of work rather than firing every enquiry at everybody.

Normally yes, and it usually works out cheaper, because the scaffold is the big fixed cost on a lot of roofing work and it only has to go up once.

So if it is up for a re-roof, that is the moment to deal with the gutters, the chimney flashing and the fascias as well. Mention it in the form and the firms will price the whole lot together.

In practice, yes. A roof that has to match an existing covering and satisfy a conservation officer is a different job from a like-for-like re-cover, and a smaller group of firms take it on.

Tell us at the start if the building is listed or in a conservation area and we will route the enquiry accordingly.
