We carry out roof repairs in Nottingham and across Nottinghamshire — fast, reliably, and with no hidden costs. Whether you have a missing tile in Arnold, a leaking flat roof in Beeston, a failed flashing in Sherwood, or storm damage in West Bridgford, our team is on hand to help.
We are a family-run roofing contractor proudly based in Hucknall, NG15, with over 15 years of hands-on experience. We work on every type of roof found across Nottingham — Victorian slate terraces, post-war concrete tile semis, 1970s interlocking tile properties, and modern flat-roof extensions.
We are fully insured and offer a free drone roof survey before any work begins.

From Slipped Tiles to Storm Damage: What a Nottingham Repair Callout Covers
- Tile and slate replacement, including profile-matched concrete interlocking tiles and natural slate
- Lead flashing repair and replacement around chimneys, dormers, bay windows and valleys, using code 4 and code 5 lead
- Ridge and verge repointing, plus dry ridge and dry verge system installation as a mortar-free alternative
- Flat roof repairs on EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass and felt — splits, blistering, failed seams and pooling water
- Chimney stack repairs, brickwork repointing, and pot and flashing replacement
- Emergency storm damage repairs, including a written damage report for insurance purposes
- Gutter, fascia and soffit repair or replacement carried out alongside the roof work
- A free annual roof maintenance inspection for existing customers
Not Included / Costed Separately
- Full roof replacement or re-covering — priced and carried out as a separate project, not part of a repair callout
- Scaffolding, where the pitch or access means it's needed beyond our standard ladder and lightweight access equipment — assessed and priced at survey stage
- Structural repair or replacement of roof joists and rafters, beyond the roof covering itself
- Listed building or conservation area consent applications — we'll flag if these apply during the survey, but the application itself sits with the homeowner
- General building or brickwork unrelated to the chimney stack or roofline
What Does a Roof Repair Cost in Nottingham?
What a repair costs depends on what's actually wrong and how your roof is built, so a single number rarely tells you much. As a rough guide, straightforward jobs — refixing a handful of slipped tiles or resealing a small area — sit at the lower end of the scale and are usually finished within a day. Jobs involving lead flashing, ridge or verge repointing, or chimney work sit in the middle, since they need more skilled labour and materials such as code 4 or code 5 lead. Larger jobs — a flat roof patch across several square metres, storm damage spread across the roof, or anything needing scaffolding rather than ladder access — cost more, reflecting the extra time, equipment and materials involved.
We don't give ballpark figures over the phone without seeing the roof first. Every job starts with our free drone survey, and the price you're quoted is written, itemised, and fixed before any work begins — with no obligation to proceed.

Why Our Repairs Fix the Cause, Not Just the Symptom
A repair is only as good as the diagnosis behind it, and that's usually where cheaper patch-up jobs on flat roofs and lead flashing go wrong — a repair goes over the visible symptom without anyone checking why the tile slipped or the seam split in the first place. Our free drone survey gives us HD footage of the whole roof before anyone puts a ladder up, so when we quote for a repair it's priced against the actual cause, not just the wet patch showing up on a ceiling below it. On flat roofs specifically, our approval as a Firestone EPDM RubberCover installer means any patch or section replacement over an EPDM roof is fitted to the
manufacturer's own detailing — most of the pooling water and seam failures we get called out to trace back to a rubber roof that wasn't dressed correctly the first time round, not a fault with the membrane itself. Every repair we carry out is backed by the same 10-year workmanship guarantee as a full re-roof, not a scaled-down version for smaller jobs, and the lead, tiles and membrane we fit are BBA approved so they're matched to what's already on your roof rather than swapped for a generic substitute. It's also why the roofer who climbs up for your survey is usually the same one who comes back to carry out the repair — we're a family-run team working out of our base on Harrow Rd in Hucknall, not a call centre passing the job on to whoever's free.
Where We Cover: Hucknall Out to Nottingham, Notts and the Derbyshire Border
We're based at 40 Harrow Rd in Hucknall, NG15, and that's still where every repair job starts — the team and the drone survey kit are dispatched from there. Most of our repair work is in Nottingham itself: the Victorian terraces around Sherwood and Carrington with their steep slate pitches and original lead valleys, the 1930s semis in Wollaton and Beeston, and the flat-roofed extensions and dormer loft conversions that turn up across West Bridgford and The Park. Moving out from the city we cover the wider Nottinghamshire towns — Arnold, Carlton, Bulwell, Mapperley, Gedling and Mansfield — plus the Ashfield towns of Kirkby-in-Ashfield and Sutton-in-Ashfield to the north.
We also take repair callouts across the western border into Derbyshire, including Ilkeston, where the terraced and ex-colliery housing brings a similar mix of aging slate and clay tile roofs to what we see across Nottingham. If you're outside this list, mention your postcode when you get in touch and we'll confirm whether we can get a roofer out to you.
Frequently Asked Questions — Roof Repairs in Nottingham
How do I know if I need a roof repair or a full roof replacement?
If the damage is isolated — a few missing tiles, a section of failed flashing, or a small flat roof patch on a structurally sound deck — a repair will almost certainly resolve it. If your roof is showing widespread deterioration, the underlay has failed across multiple areas, or the same spots keep leaking despite repeated repairs, a full replacement is likely the more cost-effective long-term answer. Our free drone survey gives you an honest, no-pressure assessment before you commit to anything.
What is the most common cause of roof leaks in Nottingham homes?
Failed or cracked lead flashing is the single most common cause of roof leaks we see across Nottingham — particularly around chimney stacks, dormers, and valley joints. Slipped or missing tiles and cracked ridge tile mortar are close behind. Most leaks we attend have been developing quietly for weeks before water becomes visible inside.
Do you carry out emergency roof repairs in Nottingham?
Yes. We offer emergency callouts for storm damage, sudden leaks, and other urgent roof problems across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire. Call 0115-647-3275 and we will get to you as quickly as possible to make your roof weathertight and prevent further damage.
Do I need planning permission for roof repairs in Nottingham?
Like-for-like repairs — replacing tiles, repointing, repairing or replacing flashing — fall under permitted development and do not normally require planning permission. If your property is in a conservation area, in the Nottingham City Centre Conservation Zone, or is listed, different rules may apply. We check this during the survey and advise you before any work starts.
How long does a roof repair take in Nottingham?
Most straightforward repairs — tile replacement, ridge repointing, lead flashing repair — can be completed in a single day. More involved jobs, such as a section of flat roof or chimney stack work on a taller property, may take two to three days. We give you a realistic, written timeframe before we start — and we stick to it.
Can I claim on my home insurance for roof repairs?
Storm damage and sudden structural damage from an identifiable event are usually covered by buildings insurance. Wear and tear, gradual leaks, and damage attributed to poor maintenance are generally excluded. We can provide a written damage assessment and cause report to support your insurance claim — this is something we offer to all customers who need it.
Is it safe to leave a damaged roof without repair?
No — and the longer you leave it, the more expensive the repair becomes. Water that gets through a broken tile or cracked flashing can soak into roof timbers within days, leading to rot, structural damage, and eventually ceiling collapse. A quick, affordable repair now will almost always cost far less than leaving it another season.
What roofing materials do you use for repairs in Nottingham?
We use a range of high-quality materials matched to your existing roof, including:
- Natural and artificial slate
- Clay and concrete roof tiles — in a wide range of profiles
- EPDM rubber for flat roofs
- GRP fibreglass for flat roofs and dormers
- Code 4 and code 5 lead for flashings and valleys
- Felt and built-up roofing systems
- Dry ridge and dry verge systems for mortar-free ridge and verge solutions
We always recommend the material that suits your roof type, your property, and Nottingham's climate — not just the cheapest option available.
