Commercial roofing in Blofield Heath
Roofs in Blofield Heath are dominated by bungalows and 1970s estates. Each behaves differently once it starts to fail, which is why our commercial & industrial roofing here starts with an inspection rather than a price over the phone. Broadland District Council covers the area, and we work across the NR13 postcode district.

Our working method
Site survey and risk assessment
Access, fragile surfaces and working-at-height arrangements assessed for the premises around Blofield industrial units.
Report with photographs
You get a written condition report you can put in front of a landlord, insurer or board.
Phased works
Larger roofs split into phases so the building keeps operating while work proceeds.
Maintenance plan
An optional inspection cycle afterwards so the next problem is found in a survey rather than a downpour.

Typical jobs on bungalows
Village housing, bungalows and extensions.
Failed ridge and hip mortar
Bedding mortar on bungalows cracks and lets ridge tiles move; dry-fix is the usual long-term answer on the exposed side towards the A47.
Corroded sheeting and fixings
Profiled sheet roofs fail at the fixings and laps long before the sheet itself gives up. Overlay or sheet replacement is priced against remaining life.
Roof-light degradation
GRP roof-lights go brittle and crack, which is both a leak and a safety issue for anyone accessing the roof.
Tired felt and battens
Where the underfelt has perished — common on 1970s estates — patch repairs stop being economic and a strip-and-re-cover is the honest recommendation.
Practical answers before you book
- Do you take on agricultural buildings?
- Yes. Barns, stores and packhouses around Blofield Heath are common work — sheet replacement, overlay systems, roof-lights and gutter runs.
- Can you work while the building stays open?
- Usually yes. Works are phased and access planned so trading, deliveries and staff movement continue, including on sites around Blofield industrial units.
- Is a gutter lining cheaper than replacement?
- Almost always, and on large-span roofs it's frequently the fix that stops the leak. We price both so the comparison is yours to make.
- Will you patch it, or push a full new roof?
- Whichever is honest. If a repair will genuinely hold, that's what we quote. If the felt and battens underneath have gone, patching just moves the leak, and we'll show you why on the inspection.
- Do you actually cover Blofield Heath, or just the Norwich area?
- We cover it. We're based at Costessey, Norwich and Blofield Heath is about 8 miles from Norwich, reached on the A47. It's a normal working area for us, not an outlier.
