How a Kessingland job runs

A short call establishes property type, age and access — often enough to say what's likely before we arrive.
On-site survey
We check the deck, battens and detailing, not only the visible covering.
Options, not one price
Where there's a repair route and a replacement route, you get both with the trade-offs explained.

Materials and systems we use
- Clay pantiles and plain tiles
- Traditional coverings common across East Anglia; re-laid on new battens and breather membrane with matched replacements where tiles are salvageable.
- Torch-on felt systems
- Multi-layer bitumen for larger flats and outbuildings where a robust, repairable finish suits the budget.
- EPDM rubber membrane
- Single-piece rubber for extensions, dormers and garages — no seams across the field of the roof.
- Natural and fibre-cement slate
- Used on period and conservation roofs. Fixed with copper or stainless nails, with lead soakers at abutments.
Questions we get asked in Kessingland
- Do you clear up afterwards?
- Yes. Scaffold is struck, waste removed and gutters cleared before we invoice.
- How soon can someone look at a leak in NR33?
- Call 07437 005301 and we'll arrange an inspection. We advertise a 24/7 emergency call-out for active leaks and storm damage, and we'll tell you on the phone what's realistic rather than promise a fixed time.
- 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.
- What does a roofing quote in Kessingland cost?
- The inspection and the written quotation are free. The job price depends on the covering, the roof size, access and what we find under it — which is exactly why we won't price it over the phone.
- Our roof is bungalows — is that a problem?
- No, it's typical for the area. bungalows is one of the most common types we work on locally, and we'll match materials where any of the existing covering is being retained.
