Roofers Serving Cardiff

Roofing work we do for Cardiff homes

Cardiff has a real mix of roofs — rows of older slate-roofed terraces, inter-war semis with concrete tiles, and newer estates with modern interlocking tiles and dry-fix ridges. Each one fails in its own way, so we look at what's actually on your roof rather than applying a one-size answer.

Getting your roof looked at

You don't need to go up a ladder. Photos from the street, a back bedroom window or the loft are often enough for us to give you an idea of what's going on before we visit. Look for daylight through the roof, damp felt or timbers, and where any water marks are on the ceiling.

When we come out we look at the whole roof, not just where the drip is, and explain what we find in plain English. If something can wait, we'll say so.

Repair or replace? A straight answer

A repair makes sense when the problem is in one place — a few slipped slates, a cracked ridge tile, a failed bit of flashing — and the rest of the roof is sound.

Replacement is worth thinking about when slates or tiles are failing all over, the felt underneath has rotted away, or you've had a run of repairs in different spots. At that point you can end up paying for the same roof twice. We'll tell you which camp your roof is in and why, so you can decide.
