For a slipped tile on an older cottage or a new roof on a family house, the starting point is understanding how the existing roof is put together.
Traditional materials, roof valleys and lead flashing often need particular care on older Cotswold properties. For listed buildings or work in conservation areas, the right materials and any necessary permissions should be checked before work begins.

Roof repairs and new roof workWHAT WE CAN HELP WITH
Roofing work, explained.
Every property and every job is different. These are the areas to discuss when requesting a quotation.
New roofs & re-roofing
Where covering, battens or underlay are reaching the end of their useful life, a replacement roof may be appropriate. Materials depend on the building.
Flat roofing
Garages, dormers and extensions often use flat-roof systems. Condition, drainage and existing substrate influence what is possible.
Chimneys, ridges & leadwork
Water ingress commonly begins at roof junctions, chimneys and weathered mortar. These areas deserve careful inspection.
LOCAL CONSIDERATIONS
Working with Cirencester properties.
From stone cottages and older tiled roofs to modern extensions, Cirencester has a mix of roof types that deserve an individual approach.
Traditional materials, roof valleys and lead flashing often need particular care on older Cotswold properties. For listed buildings or work in conservation areas, the right materials and any necessary permissions should be checked before work begins.
The right repair depends on whether the problem is isolated or part of an ageing roof covering.
Before requesting a quote

ON THE GROUND / CIRENCESTER
Roofing for stone-built and older homes
Cirencester and the surrounding Cotswold villages include older properties where slates, stone tiles, valleys and chimney junctions contribute to the character of the building. Replacement materials should suit the existing structure, and alterations to listed buildings may need consent.
A recurring leak at a chimney is not automatically a sign that all the roof tiles have failed. Flashing, pointing, the valley and the route water takes under the covering are worth checking first.
Discuss your roof with us
Knowing the postcode, roof type and what you have noticed makes the first conversation much more useful.

Roofing FAQs
Does a roof leak always mean a new roof is needed?
No. A leaking roof may need a localised repair to tiles, flashing or a valley. The right answer depends on the condition of the rest of the covering and underlay.
Can you work on both pitched and flat roofs?
Our published service range covers pitched tile and slate roofing as well as flat roofing. Describe the roof type when you get in touch so we can discuss the job.
How much will a roof repair cost?
It depends on the access, cause of the problem, materials and scale. The best first step is to share the location and a description of the issue for a tailored quotation.
