Our Roofing Services

Our comprehensive roof repair services address a wide range of issues common to UK properties, ensuring your home remains protected from the elements. From replacing a single slipped slate to addressing significant leaks, our experienced team is equipped to handle all types of roof repair work. In South Wales, the persistent rainfall and coastal winds can take their toll on a roof, leading to issues such as damaged flashing, cracked tiles, and water ingress. We specialise in identifying the root cause of the problem and providing a lasting solution. Our repair services cover everything from tile and slate replacement to fixing leaks, repointing ridge tiles, and addressing damage to the roofline. We use high-quality materials that are appropriate for the UK climate and the style of your property, ensuring a seamless and durable repair.

A full roof replacement is a significant investment that can transform the appearance, value, and energy efficiency of your UK property. Our roof replacement service involves the complete removal of your old roof covering, a thorough inspection of the roof structure, and the installation of a new, high-performance roofing system. In the UK, this process is governed by strict building regulations, including standards for thermal insulation (Part L) and structural integrity (BS 5534). We ensure full compliance with these regulations, providing you with a roof that is not only beautiful but also safe and energy-efficient. The process typically involves erecting scaffolding, stripping the old roof, installing a modern breathable membrane, fitting new battens, and then laying the new tiles or slates. We also replace all leadwork, such as flashing, to ensure a completely watertight finish.

Flat roofing is a popular choice for extensions, garages, and commercial properties across the UK. We offer a range of modern flat roofing systems, each with its own unique benefits. The most common types used in the UK are GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic), EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber, and traditional felt roofing. GRP, or fibreglass roofing, is a seamless and highly durable system that is ideal for complex roof shapes. EPDM is a synthetic rubber membrane that is extremely long-lasting and resistant to UV damage. Traditional felt roofing, while having a shorter lifespan, remains a cost-effective option. We can advise you on the best flat roofing system for your property, taking into account your budget, the intended use of the roof, and the local climate in South Wales.

Tile roofing is a classic and enduring choice for UK homes, offering a timeless aesthetic and excellent durability. We specialise in the installation and repair of both concrete and clay tile roofs. Concrete tiles are a popular and cost-effective option, available in a wide range of colours and profiles to suit any property. Clay tiles, while more expensive, offer a more traditional and characterful appearance, with a rich colour that deepens with age. In the UK, the choice between concrete and clay tiles is often influenced by local planning regulations and the desire to maintain the architectural character of the area. We can help you choose the right tiles for your property, ensuring they are appropriate for the pitch of your roof and the prevailing weather conditions in South Wales.

Slate roofing is synonymous with quality and tradition in the UK, and particularly in Wales, the home of some of the world's finest slate. A Welsh slate roof is a premium choice that offers unparalleled durability and a beautiful, natural aesthetic. Welsh slate is renowned for its exceptional quality, with a lifespan that can exceed 100 years. It is available in a range of natural colours, from the classic blue-grey of Ffestiniog slate to the heather purple of Penrhyn slate. The natural cleavage of slate allows it to be split into thin, uniform tiles, creating a roof of exceptional character and longevity. While the initial cost of a slate roof is higher than other materials, its longevity and low maintenance requirements make it a sound long-term investment.

Your chimney is an integral part of your roofing system, and it is essential to keep it in good repair to prevent water ingress and structural problems. We offer a comprehensive chimney repair service, addressing all common UK chimney issues. This includes repointing the chimney stack, which involves replacing the weathered and crumbling mortar between the bricks. We also repair or replace damaged lead flashing around the base of the chimney, which is a common source of leaks. Other services include capping or removing unused chimneys, and repairing or replacing damaged chimney pots. In South Wales, the high rainfall and strong winds can accelerate the deterioration of chimney stacks, making regular inspections and maintenance essential.

Your guttering system plays a crucial role in protecting your property from water damage by channelling rainwater away from the roof and walls. We offer a complete guttering service, including installation, repair, and cleaning. In the UK, guttering is typically made from uPVC, aluminium, or cast iron. We can help you choose the right guttering system for your property, taking into account the style of your home, your budget, and the local climate. Our guttering services include replacing old and leaking gutters, repairing damaged sections, and clearing blocked gutters and downpipes. In South Wales, the high levels of rainfall mean that it is particularly important to have a well-maintained guttering system to prevent water from overflowing and damaging your property.

Fascias and soffits are the boards that run along the edge of your roofline, and they play an important role in protecting your home from the elements. The fascia is the board that is attached to the end of the roof trusses, and it is the board that your guttering is attached to. The soffit is the board that is tucked away underneath the fascia, and it provides ventilation to the roof space. In the UK, fascias and soffits are traditionally made from timber, but modern uPVC fascias and soffits are now a popular choice as they are low-maintenance and weather-resistant. We offer a full fascia and soffit replacement service, removing your old timber boards and replacing them with new, high-quality uPVC boards.

Loft insulation is one of the most effective ways to improve the energy efficiency of your UK home and reduce your heating bills. A significant amount of heat is lost through the roof of an uninsulated home, so installing loft insulation is a simple and cost-effective way to make your home warmer and more comfortable. In the UK, the recommended depth for loft insulation is 270mm. There are several different types of loft insulation available, including blanket insulation, loose-fill insulation, and sheet insulation. We can advise you on the best type of insulation for your loft and install it to the required depth, ensuring that you meet the latest building regulations.

Moss, algae, and lichen growth on your roof is not just an aesthetic issue; it can lead to serious damage over time. In the damp climate of South Wales and the Valleys, moss thrives on roof tiles and slates, particularly on north-facing slopes with little sunlight. As moss grows, it retains moisture against the roof surface, which can cause tiles to crack and degrade. The roots of moss can also lift and dislodge roof tiles, creating gaps where water can penetrate. Our professional roof moss cleaning service removes all organic growth from your roof using gentle, effective methods that won't damage your tiles or slates. We use biocide treatments to kill moss at the root and prevent regrowth, followed by careful manual or soft-wash removal. The result is a clean, restored roof that looks better and will last longer.

A fresh coat of paint can completely transform the appearance of your property while providing essential protection against the UK weather. Our exterior house painting service covers all aspects of external decoration for residential properties in South Wales. We work with a range of high-quality, weather-resistant masonry paints, render finishes, and specialist coatings suitable for the British climate. Before painting, we thoroughly prepare all surfaces by cleaning, repairing cracks, treating any damp or mould, and priming where necessary. This preparation is crucial for achieving a long-lasting finish that will withstand wind, rain, and coastal conditions. We can paint rendered walls, pebbledash, brickwork, timber cladding, and all external woodwork including fascias, soffits, and window frames. The result is a beautiful, protected property that will look great for years to come.

Damp problems are common in UK properties, particularly in older buildings and those in areas with high rainfall like South Wales. Damp can cause serious structural damage, health problems, and costly repairs if left untreated. We offer a comprehensive damp proofing service to protect your property from rising damp, penetrating damp, and condensation issues. Our damp proofing solutions include the installation of chemical damp proof courses (DPC), which create a barrier against rising damp from the ground. We also offer tanking solutions for basements and cellars, render repairs to prevent penetrating damp, and cavity wall treatments. Before carrying out any work, we conduct a thorough damp survey to identify the source and extent of the problem, ensuring we provide the most effective solution. All our damp proofing work comes with long-term guarantees, giving you peace of mind that your property is protected.
