Roofing in Cotteridge

Cotteridge grew up around the Pershore Road and the tram in the Edwardian years, and the streets off it are terraces and semis of that period, slate and clay tile, with bays, back additions and a chimney stack apiece. Behind them, towards Kings Norton and Brandwood, the housing runs into 1920s and 30s semis under concrete tile with hipped roofs, and there is a good deal of interwar shopping parade along the Pershore Road itself with flat roofs and parapets that leak into the flats above the shops. The Edwardian roofs are at the slipped slate and failed lead stage; the interwar ones need ridges, roofline and chimneys; and the parades need proper flat roofing rather than another coat of something. It is well treed on the Bournville side, so moss and blocked gutters are regular, and it is a compact area where we are often on two or three jobs in the same few streets.

What we do in Cotteridge

Roof repairsMost roofs do not fail all at once. They fail at one detail, and the damage spreads from there. New roofs and re-roofingA re-roof is the one job where everything that matters is hidden by the time you see it finished. Flat roofingFlat roofs get a bad name from the way they used to be done. Done properly, a modern one outlasts the extension under it. Chimneys and leadworkA chimney takes more weather than any other part of the house, and the lead around its base is where most roofs first let go. Fascias, soffits and gutteringThe roofline is the part of the roof you can see from the pavement, and the part that quietly rots when the gutters are wrong. Moss removal and roof maintenanceMoss is not just cosmetic. It holds water against the tiles, blocks the gutters and, when it freezes, lifts the covering. Emergency roof repairsRoofs do not fail at a convenient hour. The phone is answered 24 hours a day.

Frequently asked questions

I own a flat above a shop on the Pershore Road. Can you look at the roof?

Yes. The interwar parades have flat roofs and parapets that leak into the flats above, and a proper EPDM or fibreglass roof with the parapet detail done right is usually the fix.

Do you cover both Cotteridge and Kings Norton?

Yes. They run into each other and we are often working in both on the same day.

Do you charge for a quote?

No. Someone comes out, looks at the roof properly and gives you a written price. There is no charge and no obligation.

How far do you travel?

We cover Bromsgrove, Redditch and the south side of Birmingham. If you are just outside the towns listed it is still worth ringing.

Do you do emergency call outs?

Yes, on a 24 hour line. If something has come off in the night we make it safe first and talk about the proper repair in daylight.
