What's involved

Roof Repairs in Cromer

Roof problems rarely improve on their own. A single slipped tile or a crack in the flashing around a chimney can let enough water in to soak ceiling joists, ruin insulation and start the process of dry rot in the roof space. Getting it fixed quickly is always cheaper than waiting.

We handle the full range of domestic roof repairs in Cromer and the surrounding area: replacing cracked or slipped tiles and slates, repointing ridge and hip mortar, replacing or re-dressing lead flashings around chimneys and skylights, repairing or replacing damaged fascias and soffits, and fixing storm damage. North Norfolk sees some strong northerly gales in autumn and winter, and we're used to clearing up the aftermath quickly - loose ridge tiles and lifted sections of felt are among the most common calls we get after a bad night.

A professional repair done properly lasts years. DIY attempts with roofing sealant or temporary patches often make the underlying problem worse by trapping moisture or masking a fault that continues to spread. Working safely on a pitched roof also requires the right equipment - a proper ladder stay and roof hook at minimum, scaffold or a cherry picker for chimney or ridge work.

When you call us, we'll ask a few straightforward questions to understand what's happening, then get someone out to assess it. For straightforward repairs like tile replacement or repointing, we can usually complete the work during the same visit. More complex repairs - chimney flashings, large sections of damaged felt - may need a follow-up day or scaffolding. We provide a written report of the work done and offer a guarantee on all repairs.

Most standard roof repairs in Cromer cost between £150 and £600, depending on the nature of the fault and whether scaffolding or specialist access is needed.

Questions

What people ask first.

A new pitched roof on a standard three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cromer typically costs between £5,500 and £12,000. The final figure depends on the roof area, pitch angle, your choice of materials - natural slate costs more than concrete tiles - and how easy it is to access the property. We provide a free, itemised written quote so there are no surprises.
If you're having the same sections repaired repeatedly, if the felt underneath is visibly sagging or rotted, or if more than 20-25% of the tiles are cracked, slipped or missing, a full replacement is usually more cost-effective. We offer a free roof survey in Cromer and will give you an honest assessment - we won't recommend a replacement if a good repair will do the job.
Most standard roof repairs in Cromer - replacing a handful of slipped tiles, repointing ridge mortar or resealing a flashing - cost between £150 and £600. Jobs that require scaffolding, such as chimney repairs or work on a steeply pitched roof, will cost more. We'll assess the job first and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Flat roofs in Cromer typically cost between £70 and £120 per square metre installed, so a standard single-garage roof of around 15-18 square metres would cost roughly £1,050 to £2,160. GRP fibreglass sits at the higher end of that range, reinforced felt at the lower end. We provide a free survey and written quote for all flat roofing work.
Fascia and soffit replacement in Cromer typically costs £80-£120 per linear metre for a full strip-and-replace using UPVC, including disposal of the old material. A standard semi-detached property usually runs to around £600-£1,000 for the full roofline. We provide a fixed written quote after inspecting the job, so you won't face unexpected extras.
The most common signs are a damp patch on the ceiling near a chimney breast or dormer window, particularly after heavy or wind-driven rain. You may also see the lead itself has lifted, cracked, or been patched with grey mastic or flashing tape. If a ceiling stain reappears after being replastered, there's a good chance the lead joint above it has never been properly addressed.
A partial chimney rebuild from the flashing line upwards on a standard terraced or semi-detached property in Cromer typically costs £800-£1,800, including new lead flashings and re-bedding the pots. A full rebuild down to roof level will cost more, depending on the height of the stack and the availability of matching brick. We provide a fixed price after inspecting from scaffold - never from the ground.
Chimney take-downs in Cromer typically cost £600-£1,400 for the full job, including scaffold, brick removal, making good the roof covering, and disposal of all material. The final price depends on how high the stack is above the roof line, the type of roof covering, and ease of access. We include everything in a single fixed price so there are no additions on the day.
