Domestic Roof Coverings
We specialise in complete domestic roof replacements using handmade and machine-made clay tiles, natural and artificial slates, and cedar shingles. Our process includes insulation upgrades, fascia and soffit replacement, and guttering installation. All projects receive building compliance certificates and 10-year insurance-backed warranties.
EPDM Flat Roofing
Our EPDM flat roofing solutions provide durable, waterproof coverings with 20-year manufacturer warranties. Ideal for extensions and modern properties, these systems combine practical water resistance with contemporary aesthetics while meeting all building regulation requirements.
Slate Roofing
We install premium natural slate roofs that preserve period property aesthetics while offering modern performance. This popular choice for turn-of-the-century homes combines visual appeal with exceptional durability, requiring minimal maintenance over decades of service.
Handmade Tiles
For listed buildings and heritage properties, we supply and install authentic handmade clay tiles matching original specifications. These individually crafted tiles maintain historical accuracy while providing superior weather protection for conservation area properties.
Lead Work
Our specialist lead work includes custom-fabricated flashings for chimneys and abutment walls. Using traditional welding techniques and bespoke fitting, we create watertight seals that prevent water ingress while maintaining roof integrity and architectural details.
