Retrofit services / Refurbishment

Roofing and guttering

A sound roof keeps the rest of the property — and any insulation — dry. We repair, re-roof and maintain rental roofs, and fix the guttering and leaks that cause the damp complaints tenants report most.

What it is

Roof repairs and full re-roofs, flat-roof renewal, ridge and verge work, leadwork, chimney repairs, and guttering, fascias and soffits — on pitched and flat roofs alike.

Why it matters for landlords

Water getting in is the fastest way to lose a property's fabric, cause disrepair claims and undo insulation. A re-roof is also the natural moment to add roof-level insulation, so the two are best planned together.

Which properties suit it

Rentals with a leaking or ageing roof, slipped or missing tiles, failed flat roofs, blocked or broken guttering, and homes due a re-roof where insulation should go in at the same time.

What's included

Inspection, repairs or renewal, guttering and rainwater goods, leadwork and chimney work, and coordination with any loft, pitched-roof or flat-roof insulation so it is done in one visit.

How we do it

Surveyed, scaffolded where needed, priced from our own book, and sequenced with any retrofit so the roof and its insulation are completed together.

Common questions

Can you just repair rather than re-roof?

Yes — we advise honestly on whether a repair will last or a re-roof is the better value.

Should insulation go in with a re-roof?

Where the roof is opened up, yes — it is the cheapest time to add roof-level insulation.

Do you fix guttering and leaks?

Yes — blocked and broken guttering is one of the commonest causes of the damp tenants report.

Do you do flat roofs?

Yes, flat-roof repair and warm-roof renewal, with insulation where it counts.
