What we take on

Domestic roofing in Newark, Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire. Each job starts with a look at the roof and a written quote. If it is not something we do, we will say so.

Roof repairs
Slipped tiles, broken slates, failed flashing and day-to-day wear. We make the roof watertight and tell you plainly if a patch is enough or if a larger job is coming.

Typical work includes replacing damaged tiles or slates, reseating ridges, sorting valley leaks and repairing lead around chimneys and abutments. We will not talk you into a full re-roof if a repair will do.

New tiled and slate roofs
Full re-roofs in clay, concrete or slate, with the felt, battens and lead done properly — not just a new top layer.

If the existing roof is at the end of its life we will set out the specification in writing: covering, underlay, ventilation, insulation notes where relevant, and how long we expect to be on site. Timescales depend on the job and the weather.

Flat roofs
Felt, rubber and other modern membranes on garages, extensions and dormers. We look at falls, outlets and upstands, not only the surface.

A flat roof that ponds water will fail again if you only stick a new layer over the old one. We will say if the deck or outlets need work before covering.

Fascia, soffits and gutters
Replacement boards, soffits and rainwater goods so the eaves are tidy and water actually leaves the building.

Blocked or sagging gutters soak fascia and brickwork. We replace uPVC or timber boards as needed and set gutters to a proper fall. Colour and profile can be matched to the house.

Chimney work
Repointing, pots, flaunching and lead soakers where the stack meets the roof — a common leak point on older houses.

We do not pretend to be specialist chimney sweeps. We deal with the weatherproofing: pointing, lead, pots and flaunching. If the stack needs a builder or a lining, we will say so.

Emergency leaks
When water is coming in, the first job is to make it safe and dry. We can often do a temporary cover, then quote the proper repair.

Call 07770 166166 if you can. If you cannot get through, use the quote form and mark it as an emergency leak. We will be honest if we cannot get to you the same day.

Not sure which service you need?

Describe what you can see — a stain on the ceiling, a slipped tile, a sagging gutter — and we will take it from there.
