Everything else up there

The covering is only half a roof. Guttering, fascias, soffits, leadwork, dormers and chimneys all come off the same ladder, and they are usually what fails first.

What we fit

Fixtures, flashing
and finishing

Repaired or replaced, matched to the house rather than to whatever is cheapest on the van.

Guttering

Replaced or repaired, in standard or traditional cast-style profiles to suit the house. Sized to actually carry the water off the roof.

Fascias & Barge Boards

Fascias, barge boards, gable rakes and eaves. If the timber behind has gone, that gets replaced rather than capped over.

Soffits

Flat, hollow or vented soffits, matched to the house. Vented where the roof needs the airflow, which is more often than not.

Leadwork

Flashing, valleys, soakers, chimney aprons and dormer cheeks. Cut, dressed and fixed properly, not filled with mastic.

Chimneys

Repointing, re-flashing, pots, cowls and capping. Chimneys are the most common leak on an otherwise sound roof.

Dormers

Flat-topped dormers built, re-covered and led in. Roof, cheeks and the joint back into the main pitch.

Roofs fail
at the joints

Tiles shed water perfectly well on their own. It is the places where a roof meets something else — a wall, a chimney, another pitch, a dormer cheek — where water finds its way in.

Those joints get lead. Cut to size, dressed to the shape of what is underneath and fixed properly. Not a bead of mastic and a hope that it lasts until someone else is looking at it.

Worth knowing

Do it while
the scaffold is up

Access is most of the cost on this kind of work. If the guttering is tired and the fascias are going, doing them at the same time as the roof saves paying twice to get up there.

Same goes for chimney repointing and lead flashing. We will tell you what genuinely needs doing now and what will keep for a few years yet.
