Roofing in St Mellons
St Mellons is effectively our home patch — we are based on Lodwick Rise, so most jobs here are a five-minute drive. The area splits neatly between the older village end around Old St Mellons, with its cottages and larger detached houses, and the much bigger post-war and 1980s estates to the south. Those estates are now at the age where the original flat-roofed garages and extensions are on their last covering, and dry-verge clips are starting to go brittle.
In and around St Mellons we regularly work in Old St Mellons, Began, Michaelston-y-Fedw and the surrounding streets.
What St Mellons roofs are built like
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.
Post-war and 1960s–70s estates
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.
Modern estates, 1990s onwards
Interlocking concrete tile, dry-fix ridges and uPVC roofline as standard. Generally sound, and what we mostly see is storm damage, dry-verge clips going brittle in UV, and flashing details around porches and bays.
