Professional Pitched Roof Repair — FREE Drone Survey Available
In Nottingham, a small roofing problem rarely stays small. One slipped slate or a crack in the flashing is enough to let water into your roof space, working into timber, insulation, and ceilings.
We carry out pitched roof repairs across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire — slipped or broken tiles, cracked slates, failed lead flashing, loose ridge tiles, sagging valleys, and chimney stack repointing.
We offer a free drone survey so you know exactly what the problem is before any work starts. Our team is NFRC-registered, CSCS-certified, and fully insured, and all roofing materials are BBA approved.
Call us on 0115-647-3275 to book your free survey.
What Pitched Roof Repair in Nottingham Involves
- Tile, slate and ridge tile repair or replacement, matched to your existing roof covering
- Lead flashing repair around chimneys, dormers, bay windows and valleys
- Ridge and verge repointing, or dry ridge and dry verge system installation
- Valley and gutter clearance, re-lining or replacement
- Chimney stack repointing and flashing repairs
- Storm damage repairs, with a written report for insurance claims
- A free drone survey to confirm the cause before any work starts
- Most repairs completed within 1–3 days, backed by a 10-year workmanship guarantee
Not Included / Costed Separately
- A full re-roof — if the survey finds damage spread across most of the roof, we scope and price a full re-roofing project separately
- Guttering or downpipe replacement that isn't connected to the valley or leak we're already repairing
- Internal repairs — plastering, ceiling repairs, or redecorating caused by a leak that's since been fixed
- Listed building consent or conservation area applications — we'll flag it at survey stage, but the application sits with Nottingham City Council
- Moss removal as a standalone job, unless it's part of fixing an underlying tile, mortar, or valley problem
What Pitched Roof Repairs Cost in Nottingham
Every pitched roof repair we carry out is priced on the individual job, because the range of work we cover makes a fixed price list misleading. What drives the cost is the number of tiles or slates affected, whether scaffold or a safe access platform is needed, whether a dry ridge or dry verge system is specified instead of a mortar fix, and how much of the roof needs attention once we've looked underneath the visible damage.
Smaller, isolated repairs sit at the lower end of the scale. Jobs involving scaffold, extensive ridge and verge work, or chimney repointing cost more, because of the extra access, materials, and labour involved. We don't give a price over the phone — every job starts with a free drone survey, and a full quote, written and itemised, follows a site visit.
Repair or Full Re-Roof? A Quick Comparison
| Factor | Repair Is Usually Right | Re-Roof Is Usually Right |
|---|---|---|
| Extent of damage | Isolated tiles, one area of flashing failure, or localised ridge cracking | Widespread nail sickness or damage spread across most of the roof |
| Roof age | Under 30 years old with sound timbers | Roof covering over 50 years old showing broad wear |
| Batten condition | Sound, no significant rot found at survey | Rotten across more than a third of the roof |
| Cost profile | Lower cost, a targeted fix for a specific problem | Higher upfront cost, but avoids repeat repair bills on a failing roof |
| Best suited to | A roof that's otherwise in good condition | A roof covering that's reached the end of its working life |
Clay, Concrete or Slate — Every Tile Fails Its Own Way
Most of the pitched roofs we repair around Nottingham fall into a handful of types: clay plain tiles on Victorian and Edwardian terraces in areas like Sherwood and Lenton, concrete interlocking tiles on the 1930s–60s semis that make up much of the city's suburbs, and slate on older period properties dotted across the county. Each fails in its own way — clay tiles crack and slip once frost gets into hairline fractures, concrete tiles work loose at the nose as the fixing nibs wear down, and slate delamination shows up as a roof shedding small flakes years before a full slate comes off.
We've been repairing roofs like these for over 15 years, working out of our base in Hucknall across Nottingham and the wider county. Every job starts with a free drone survey, flown by a CAA-registered operator, so we can see which tiles have moved or where flashing has failed before quoting anything. Repairs carry a 10-year workmanship guarantee, the materials we fit are BBA approved with manufacturer warranties running up to 20+ years on some products, and every quote is written and itemised before work starts.

Frequently Asked Questions — Pitched Roof Repairs in Nottingham
Can you repair just a few slipped tiles without replacing the whole roof?
Yes — isolated tile repair is a standard fix and there is no need to re-roof for localised damage. Our survey confirms whether the fixings and battens around the affected area are sound before we carry out the repair, so the same tiles don't slip again.
How quickly can you respond to a roofing problem in Nottingham?
We offer same-week appointments across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire for standard inspections and repairs. For urgent situations, such as a roof damaged by a storm, we respond promptly to secure the property and prevent further water ingress.
Do I need scaffolding for a pitched roof repair?
Most two-storey pitched roof repairs in Nottingham require scaffold or a safe access platform under Working at Height regulations. This is factored into your quote from the outset — there are no unexpected add-ons after the work starts.
Will my home insurance pay for storm-damaged tiles?
Most policies cover sudden storm damage, but each insurer's terms differ. We provide a written damage report that you can submit with your claim. Wear and tear is typically excluded, so keeping up with routine maintenance helps protect your position with your insurer.
Do I need planning permission to repair my pitched roof in Nottingham?
Like-for-like repairs do not require planning permission in most cases. If your property is listed or sits within a conservation area in Nottingham, material changes may need consent from Nottingham City Council. We can advise you at the survey stage.
How often should I have my pitched roof inspected?
We recommend a visual check from the ground twice a year, and a professional survey every three to five years for roofs over 20 years old. Inspections after significant storms are also good practice, particularly in autumn and winter.
