Roof repairs, new roofs, flat and pitched roofing across Watford and the WD postcodes. Free inspection, honest written quote, no call-out charge.
Tell us about your roof. We usually reply the same day.
From period terraces in Nascot Wood and Cassiobury to the rows of 1930s bay-fronted semis through North Watford and Garston, Watford roofs come in every age and style, and each needs a slightly different approach. We work across the whole town and the surrounding WD postcodes, and we see the same local problems again and again.
On the older terraces near the town centre it is usually slipped or cracked tiles, worn chimney leadwork and tired pointing. The 1930s semis often need ridge and valley work or chimney repairs. And right across Watford the most common call we get is an ageing felt flat roof on a rear extension or garage that has finally started to let water in. Whatever your roof, we inspect it properly, show you photos of what we find and give you a straight, written quote.
Many homes in the Cassiobury and Nascot Wood conservation areas need like-for-like materials such as natural slate to keep their original look and meet local planning expectations. We are used to working on period roofs and match materials carefully. On the tighter terraced streets near the centre we plan access and parking in advance so the job runs smoothly for you and your neighbours.
Flat roofs are everywhere in Watford, on rear extensions, dormers, garages and porches across Nascot Wood, Cassiobury, Oxhey and North Watford. When an old felt covering starts to blister, pond or leak, we replace it with a modern system built to last. We fit and repair all three main types: EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass and felt.
Fibreglass (GRP) is a popular choice for Watford extensions and balconies because it gives a hard, seamless, walk-on finish with no joints to fail. EPDM rubber suits larger garage and extension roofs, laid as one continuous sheet with very few seams. Felt remains a cost-effective option for garages and outbuildings. We check the falls, outlets and upstands first so water drains away properly, then recommend the right system for your roof and budget. See our full flat roofing service for how each system compares.
Most repair calls we get in Watford are the same handful of problems: slipped or cracked tiles, worn flashing around chimneys and valleys, blocked or leaking guttering, and storm damage after high winds. Left alone, a small leak quietly rots timbers and stains ceilings, so it pays to have it looked at early. We find the actual cause rather than patching over the symptom, show you photos of what we find, and give you a straight written quote.
For planned work see our roof repairs service. If water is coming in now, our emergency roof repair team can make your home safe and watertight quickly, then return to complete a permanent fix once the weather allows.
