Roofing Southampton

Two very different kinds of roof sit within a few miles of each other in Southampton. Streets rebuilt after the wartime bombing of the docks carry coverings that all went on within a few years of each other and are consequently wearing out together, house after house. The Victorian and Edwardian terraces of Bevois, Portswood and St Denys are a separate problem entirely: natural slate, iron nails that eventually corrode, valleys shared with the property next door and stacks built on the party wall.

Work out which you have and the right course of action is usually obvious. Guess, and you either replace a roof with years left in it or keep patching one that has none.

Repairs, replacements, flat roofing, chimneys and guttering, all quoted in writing after someone has actually looked at the roof. Call 023 8155 0011.

Emergency work is the exception to all of this. If water is actively coming into a Southampton property we will get someone out to stabilise it as quickly as safe access allows, and deal with the permanent repair afterwards rather than the other way round.

Most of what we are called to in the city is a single fault rather than a failing roof, and telling those two apart before you spend anything is the entire value of a proper inspection.

We photograph what we find and set out the options including the cheaper one, because a customer who was told the truth about a small job is worth more than one oversold a large one.
