What's actually up there

Five layers. Miss one and the whole thing fails.

Rafters & decking
We check every rafter for rot before anything goes on top. Covering up bad timber is the single most common corner cut in this trade.
What we do

Roofing and building, under one roof.

From a slipped slate on a Canton terrace to a full re-roof in Penarth — and the building work that goes with it.

New roofs

Full strip and re-roof in natural slate or tile, with new breathable membrane, treated battens and all new lead work. Scaffolded, sheeted and signed off.

Roof repairs

Slipped and broken slates, ridge and verge re-bedding, valley repairs, storm damage. We find the actual source of the leak, not just the wet patch.

Flat roofing

Extensions, dormers, garages and outbuildings in EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass or high-performance felt. Properly falled so water actually leaves the roof.

Slate & tile

Natural Welsh slate, reclaimed slate matching, clay and concrete tile. Conservation-sympathetic work on period and listed Cardiff properties.

Lead work & flashing

Chimney flashings, valleys, box gutters, bay roofs and parapets in code-graded lead. The detail that decides whether a roof leaks in five years.

Guttering, fascias & soffits

Full uPVC replacement or repair, plus cladding and Velux installation. Clears the damp problem that a lot of people mistake for a roof leak.

A guide based on typical UK material lifespans. Condition, pitch, exposure and how well it was fitted matter more than age alone — a free inspection is the only way to know for certain.

Common questions

Straight answers.

How much does a new roof cost in Cardiff?
A typical mid-terrace re-roof in Cardiff usually lands somewhere between £5,000 and £9,000, and a larger detached property more. It depends on the size and pitch, whether the timbers are sound, the material you choose and how much scaffolding the job needs. We give a written, itemised quote free of charge so you can see exactly what you're paying for.
Do you charge for a quote?
No. Quotes and roof inspections are free with no obligation and no callout charge. We'll come out at a time that suits you, go up and look properly, and tell you honestly whether you need a full roof or just a repair.
Can you repair my roof rather than replace it?
Very often, yes. Plenty of leaks come down to a handful of slipped slates, a failed chimney flashing or a blocked valley rather than a roof at the end of its life. We'll always tell you if a repair will do the job — we're not interested in selling anyone a roof they don't need.
How long does a re-roof take?
A standard terraced or semi-detached house is usually five to eight working days once the scaffolding is up, weather permitting. We sheet the roof overnight so the property stays watertight throughout, and we clear the site properly at the end of every day.
Are you insured, and is the work guaranteed?
Yes — we carry full public liability insurance and all workmanship comes with a written guarantee. Manufacturer warranties on materials such as EPDM and GRP flat roofing systems are passed on to you as well.
Can you help with an insurance claim after storm damage?
We can. We'll attend, make the roof safe, and provide a written report with photographs of the damage that you can submit to your insurer. Storm damage is prioritised — call us and we'll get to you as quickly as we can.
