Expert Pitched Roofing in Ashburton, Devon

A new pitched roof is a big investment, but it’s one of the best things you can do for your property’s value and energy efficiency. We work with a variety of materials to suit the character of your home, whether you're living in a traditional stone cottage that needs natural slate roofing or a modern build perfectly suited for concrete or clay tiles.When we install a new roof, we don't just stop at the tiles. We use high-quality breathable membranes (like Tyvek) to prevent condensation and ensure your loft stays dry and well-ventilated. We also handle all the battening and counter-battening with precision, creating a solid framework that can withstand the worst of the South West elements. Thinking about how a new roof might lower your heating bills? Modern materials and insulation upgrades can significantly improve your home's EPC rating while keeping you warm and toasty.

Imagine waking up after a stormy night to find a few slates lying on your driveway. It's a common sight in Devon, but it's not something you should ignore. A small gap in your roof is an open invitation for water to get in and start rotting your timber rafters. Our roof repairs in Teignbridge are designed to catch these problems before they turn into a full-scale emergency.We specialise in:Slipped or cracked slate replacement: Keeping your roof watertight and looking sharp.Ridge tile re-bedding: We often recommend dry ridge systems because they're mortar-free and don't crack over time like traditional methods.Leadwork and flashing: Essential for those tricky areas around chimneys and valleys where leaks usually start.Storm damage repairs: Fast response when you need it most to secure your property.

One of the most common spots for a leak is the abutment—that's the point where your roof meets a wall or a chimney stack. If the lead flashing is old, cracked, or poorly installed, the rain will find a way in. Our team are experts in bespoke lead welding, ensuring your valleys and chimney surroundings are completely sealed.We also keep an eye on your chimney's brickwork. Over time, the mortar can perish, making the stack unstable. As part of our pitched roofing service in Ashburton, we offer repointing and general maintenance to keep your chimney safe and secure. It’s all about that attention to detail that keeps your home dry for the long haul.
