Emergencies: aiming to attend within 3 hours

## Roofing in Basingstoke
Basingstoke is ten minutes up the road from us and easily our busiest town. The housing stock is unusually uniform in places: huge swathes of it went up during the town's expansion in the 1960s and 70s, which means the same roofing faults appear street after street.

Those estates are now at the age where the original underlay has perished and the ridge mortar has cracked out, even where the concrete tiles above them still have life left.

Alongside that there is older housing in the town centre and the surrounding villages, plus a lot of modern development, each with their own typical problems.

We work throughout Basingstoke and the surrounding area, including Chineham, Old Basing, Oakley, Brighton Hill, Popley, Overton. Normal working hours are 8am–5pm and we respond outside them wherever we can; for emergency call-outs we aim to be with you within 3 hours, depending on your location and our availability.

### Property types we work on in Basingstoke

- 1960s and 70s expansion estates with concrete interlocking tiles on original felt
- Victorian and Edwardian housing nearer the town centre with slate and plain-tile roofs
- 1930s semis with clay tiles, exposed verges and cracked ridge mortar
- Modern estate housing where roof window flashings and verge details are the common fault

## Roof problems we see again and again in Basingstoke

### Expansion-era estates failing together
Basingstoke's growth from the 1960s onwards left tens of thousands of roofs built to the same specification within a short period. They age at the same rate, so once a street starts losing ridge mortar and tiles, its neighbours usually follow.

The good news is the covering is often salvageable. Re-felting and re-battening with the existing tiles re-laid is frequently the right-sized job, and we say so rather than quoting a full replacement by default.

### Concrete tiles that have weathered rough
Concrete interlocking tiles lose their surface finish over decades. Once the face roughens they absorb water, which makes them heavier, more prone to frost damage and far more hospitable to moss.

A clean buys time, but where tiles are delaminating in numbers the roof is telling you it wants replacing rather than washing.

### Older housing near the centre
Victorian and Edwardian roofs around the older parts of town bring slate, valleys and chimney flashings into the picture: all detail work, and all common leak points once the lead or mortar has aged.

These roofs need matching on slate size and thickness, not just colour, which is why doorstep repairs on them so often look wrong afterwards.

## Why Basingstoke homeowners call us
We are owner-operated, so the person who quotes your roof is the person responsible for it. Inspections and quotations are free, with no call-out charge for a quotation, and once we have seen the job you get a fixed price: no day rates and no surprises once the ladders are up.

Work is covered by £1 million public liability insurance. Full roof replacements come with a 20-year workmanship guarantee; guarantees on other work vary depending on the job and the materials used, and we confirm that in writing with your quote.

You get photographs of what was wrong and what we did, the site swept and the rubbish taken away. Payment is by bank transfer or cash, with stage payments available on larger projects.
