Roofing Services
Your roof is arguably the most important element of your home’s structure. It’s the first line of defence against rain, wind, snow, and sun — protecting everything beneath it from the elements year after year. When your roof is sound, you probably don’t think about it at all. But when problems develop, the consequences can be serious: water damage to ceilings and walls, ruined insulation, mould growth, structural deterioration, and the stress of dealing with leaks during storms. A reliable roof isn’t a luxury; it’s essential to your home’s integrity and your family’s comfort.
At Klassic GS, we provide comprehensive roofing services for both residential and commercial properties. Whether you’ve spotted a few slipped tiles, noticed damp patches appearing on upstairs ceilings, have storm damage that needs urgent attention, or suspect your roof is simply reaching the end of its serviceable life, we’re here to help. We assess problems honestly, explain your options clearly, and deliver solutions that restore your peace of mind.
Repairs are the most common roofing need. British weather takes a toll, and over time even well-built roofs develop issues. Tiles slip, crack, or break. Ridge tiles work loose. Flashing around chimneys and junctions deteriorates. Gutters block or pull away from fascias. Felt underlays degrade. Moss builds up, holding moisture against surfaces. These problems often start small but worsen over time, especially when water finds its way into the roof structure. Early intervention prevents minor issues becoming major expenses.
When we assess a roof for repairs, we look at the whole picture, not just the obvious symptom. That damp patch on your ceiling could trace back to failed flashing several metres away, carried along rafters before dripping through. We identify the root cause, address it properly, and check for any secondary damage that needs attention. Our repairs are thorough and lasting — not quick fixes that will fail again next winter.
For roofs that have deteriorated beyond economical repair, or for properties where you want to upgrade performance, we offer complete roof replacements. This involves stripping the existing covering, inspecting and repairing the underlying structure as needed, installing modern breathable membranes, and fitting new tiles, slates, or other coverings to current standards. It’s a significant investment, but a new roof done properly will protect your home for fifty years or more.
We work with all common roofing materials: concrete and clay tiles, natural slates, artificial slates, flat roofing membranes, lead, zinc, and more. Each material has its characteristics, advantages, and appropriate applications. We help you understand the options and make recommendations based on your property’s style, your budget, and your priorities for appearance, performance, and longevity.
Flat roofs present their own challenges and are a particular specialty. Traditional felt flat roofs have limited lifespans and are prone to problems, especially on older properties. Modern alternatives like EPDM rubber membranes and fibreglass (GRP) systems offer dramatically improved performance and durability. If your flat roof is causing problems, we can repair it if that’s sensible, or replace it with a better-performing system if that’s more appropriate for the long term.
We also handle all the related elements that complete your roofing system. Gutters and downpipes that clear rainwater away from your walls and foundations. Fascias and soffits that protect rafter ends and provide a clean finish at the roofline. Chimneys that need repointing, reflashing, or capping. Roof windows and skylights that require maintenance or replacement. These elements work together to keep your property dry, and we address them all.
Safety is paramount in roofing work. Working at height carries inherent risks, and we take them seriously. Our teams are properly trained, use appropriate safety equipment, and set up scaffolding or access equipment as required for each job. We carry comprehensive insurance and operate in full compliance with health and safety regulations. When we leave, you can be confident the work was done safely as well as properly.
We know that roofing problems can feel stressful, especially when water is coming in and damaging your home. We respond promptly to urgent calls and work efficiently to address immediate problems, even if a full solution will take longer to implement. We communicate clearly about what we find, what needs to happen, and what it will cost. No unnecessary work, no inflated estimates — just honest assessment and fair pricing.
When your roof is sound, you forget about it. That’s exactly how it should be. At Klassic GS, our goal is to give you a roof that does its job quietly and reliably for years to come, protecting everything that matters to you underneath.
