Roofing services in Bedford
Pitched roofs
Roof repairs
Slipped tiles, cracked ridge tiles and leaks traced to where the water actually gets in, not just patched where the stain shows.
Roof replacements
The old covering stripped off, the timbers checked, then new membrane, battens and tiles or slate with dry fix ridges and verges.
Emergency roofing
Storm damage or water coming through the ceiling. We take callouts outside normal hours and make the roof safe first.
Chimney repairs
Repointing, flaunching, new pots and cowls, full rebuilds and chimney removal above the roofline.
Lead flashing
Leaks where the roof meets a wall or chimney, fixed with new lead or lead-free Wakaflex and Ubiflex.
Roof windows
New roof windows and flat roof lanterns fitted and leaking units replaced, with the flashing done properly.
Roof cleaning
Moss scraped off by hand and treated with a soft wash. No pressure washing and no coatings to damage your tiles.
Flat roofs
Flat roofing
New flat roofs and repairs for extensions, garages, dormers and porches, in the system that suits the roof.
GRP fibreglass
One seamless surface with no joints to fail, finished in anthracite grey and fitted by a Restec accredited installer.
Felt roofing
Torch on and cold applied felt for garages, sheds and outbuildings where the budget is tighter.
Liquid rubber
Cold applied with no naked flame and often laid straight over a tired flat roof without stripping it off.
Roofline and gutters
Soffits and fascias
Rotten timber boards replaced with low maintenance uPVC or aluminium, with ventilation built back into the eaves.
Guttering
Leaking, sagging or overflowing gutters cleared, repaired or replaced in uPVC, aluminium, cast iron or box gutter. Gutter guards fitted too.
Commercial and specialist
Commercial roofing
Built up roofing and planned maintenance for schools and commercial buildings, with weekend working when the site needs it.
New build roofing
Roof, roofline and rainwater packages for housing developers across Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire.
Solar panel removal
Panels taken down, your roof replaced and the panels refitted as one planned job.
How a roofing job runs with us
Whether it is one slipped tile or a whole new roof, the process follows the same five steps.
-
1
Tell us what you have noticed
Give us a call, message us on WhatsApp or send your details through the contact form. We aim to reply to every enquiry within 24 hours.
-
2
A free survey, usually the same week
We come out and look at the roof properly. A drone lets us see the whole covering, the ridge and the chimney without anyone walking on tiles that may already be damaged.
-
3
A fixed price quote
Once we have seen the roof you get a fixed price for the work, so you know the cost before anything starts.
-
4
The work itself
We arrange the scaffold, carry out the work to British Standards and clear the site when we finish. A full re-roof on a typical semi takes around five days.
-

Guaranteed
New roof installations come with our 20 year insurance backed guarantee covering the work we carry out.
Book a free roof survey
Tell us what is happening with your roof and we will arrange a time to come out, usually within the same week. The survey costs nothing and there is no obligation to go ahead.
Roofing contractors for every kind of roof in Bedford
Bedford has almost every type of roof you can think of. Victorian terraces with natural slate, interwar semis with clay tiles, post-war estates with concrete interlocking tiles and plenty of extensions, garages and dormers finished with flat roofs. We work on all of them, from a single slipped tile to a complete new roof.
That range matters when you are choosing a roofing contractor. A firm that only fits flat roofs will steer you towards a flat roof answer. Because we carry out pitched roofing, flat roofing, chimney work, leadwork, roofline replacement and commercial roofing, the advice you get on the survey is about what your roof actually needs rather than what we happen to sell.
Homes, landlords and businesses
We carry out roofing for homeowners, landlords, schools and commercial buildings across Bedford. That includes planned maintenance and weekend working where a building cannot close while the roof is done.
Guaranteed work and full insurance
A 20 year insurance backed guarantee
Every new roof we install carries a 20 year insurance backed guarantee covering the work we carry out. An insurance backed guarantee is designed to protect the homeowner even if the firm that did the work stops trading. If you are comparing guarantees between quotes, our homeowners roofing guidance explains what each type actually covers.
£20 million public liability
We carry £20 million of public liability insurance. Whoever you choose for your roof, ask to see their insurance before any work starts.
Materials fitted the way they were designed
New roofs go on with dry fix ridges and verges rather than relying on mortar alone. Our GRP and liquid roofing systems come from Restec. We are Restec accredited, which gives those roofs access to the manufacturer's own materials guarantee.
Where we work around Bedford
Our roofers cover Bedford and the villages around it, including Kempston, Cranfield, Ampthill, Flitwick, Houghton Conquest, Husborne Crawley, Clophill, Harlington and Biggleswade. If your village is not listed, ring us anyway. If the job is outside our area we will tell you straight away.
Before you book a roofer
Roofing quotes are full of words like valley, verge and flashing. If yours has left you unsure which part of the house it means, our guide to roof types and how roofs work shows where each part sits and what goes wrong with it. You can also read what customers have said about us in our Google reviews.

What guarantee comes with a new roof?
New roof installations come with our 20 year insurance backed guarantee covering the work we carry out. GRP and liquid roofs can also carry Restec's own materials guarantee because we are a Restec accredited installer.
Do you take emergency callouts outside normal hours?
Yes. Our office hours are Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm. We take emergency callouts outside those hours, so ring us whenever the problem starts.
