Roofers in Cambridge
Pitched, flat, slate and lead specialists serving Cambridge and the surrounding area. 30+ years' experience. Free written quotes.
Cambridge is one of the most architecturally protected cities in England. Roughly a third of the city sits inside a designated conservation area, and the property stock spans medieval college buildings, Georgian townhouses, Victorian terraces in Romsey, Petersham and Mill Road, and modern developments in Trumpington, Eddington and Cambourne.
Conservation-area and listed-building rules dictate materials, tiles, mortars and detailing far more strictly than in surrounding towns. We work with handmade clay peg tiles, natural Welsh and Westmorland slate, lead flashings and lime mortar repointing, and we'll tell you upfront which elements need listed-building consent before we quote.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the most common roofing problems on Cambridge properties?

We work with handmade clay peg tiles, natural Welsh and Westmorland slate, lead flashings and lime mortar repointing, and we'll tell you upfront which elements need listed-building consent before we quote.

How quickly can you attend an emergency roof leak?
Most emergencies are attended same-day during daylight hours. We'll make the roof watertight first and quote any permanent repair separately, so you're not under pressure to decide on a major job in the rain.
Do you provide a free written roof quote?
Yes, every quote is free, written, itemised, and carries no obligation. We'll inspect, photograph, explain what we've found, and put it in writing so you can compare like for like against any other quote.
What guarantee comes with your roofing work?
Full re-roofs carry a written workmanship guarantee. Repair work is guaranteed against the same fault recurring within the guarantee period. Manufacturer guarantees on materials (tiles, membranes, EPDM) are passed on in full.
