Local Roofers Covering Fishponds
Fishponds runs along Fishponds Road in north east Bristol, with Victorian and Edwardian terraces near the main road and streets of interwar and post-war semis further out towards Oldbury Court and Snuff Mills. Plenty of mature trees mean plenty of leaves in the gutters and moss on the roofs.
As local roofers in Fishponds, we repair tiled and slate roofs, repoint chimneys, clear and replace gutters, clean mossy roofs and re-roof homes that need it. You get a clear written quote before any work starts.
Homes and Roofs in Fishponds
Fishponds has a wide range of roof types:
- Victorian and Edwardian terraces with slate
- Interwar semis with clay or concrete tiles
- Post-war homes with interlocking tiles
- Chimney stacks on older houses
- Garages and extensions with flat roofs
- Homes close to mature trees
The jobs we do most in Fishponds are tile repairs and ridge work on interwar semis, slate repairs on older terraces, and chimney repointing. Leafy streets mean blocked gutters and mossy roofs are common, and our roof cleaning service helps protect the tiles.
If your home has an old garage with a corrugated sheet roof, be aware it may contain asbestos cement, which was widely used until it was banned in 1999. It should be tested before anyone cuts or cleans it.

Fishponds Roofing FAQs
How often should I clean my gutters in Fishponds?
Homes near trees usually benefit from a gutter clean once a year, ideally after the leaves fall. Some need it more often.
Is moss damaging my roof?
A thick layer holds moisture against the tiles, lifts them and blocks gutters. Removing it by hand and treating the roof helps protect it.
Could my old garage roof contain asbestos?
If it is a corrugated sheet roof from before 1999, it could. Do not drill or jet wash it. Get it tested first.
How much does roof work cost in Fishponds?
It depends on the job and the access.
