New roofs, repairs, flat roofing, chimneys and guttering across Ely, Cardiff and the surrounding areas. Free quotes, no call-out fee, 24/7 emergency cover.
Ely is mostly inter-war and post-war estate housing on a large scale, with concrete tile roofs and simple gables. The tiles are generally serviceable but many are now porous and shedding grit, and the original mortar ridges are well past their best. Straightforward roofs to work on, which keeps costs sensible.
In and around Ely we regularly work in Cowbridge Road West, Caerau, Fairwater and the surrounding streets.
Knowing the era tells you most of what you need to know about how a roof will fail — and what it will cost to put right.
Interlocking concrete tiles, simple gable roofs and, very often, a flat-roofed garage or rear extension. The tiles themselves last well but shed their surface with age, and the flat roofs are usually on their second or third covering by now.
Hipped roofs in clay or early concrete tile, deep eaves and generous timber roofline. The usual issues are mortar-bedded ridge and hip tiles losing their pointing, tired verges on the gable end, and the original timber fascias finally rotting behind the gutters.
We’re a Cardiff company, not a national lead-generation site that sells your details on. When you ring, you speak to the people who will be on your roof. That means straight answers about what your roof actually needs, a written price before anyone lifts a slate, and someone who can be back if something isn’t right.
No. Ely is well inside our normal working area — we’re based in St Mellons in Cardiff and it is about 25 minutes away. There is no call-out fee and no travel charge, and the quote is free whether you go ahead or not.
For a genuine emergency we aim to be with you the same day, and we answer the phone 24 hours. Ring 029 2010 0576 — during a storm we’ll tell you honestly where you are in the queue and what to do meanwhile.
All of them. Ely has a mix of post-war and 1960s–70s estates and 1930s semi-detached houses, and we work on natural slate, fibre cement, clay and concrete tile, plus flat roofs in GRP, EPDM and felt.
