As local roofers in St George, we fix roof leaks, repoint chimneys, repair slate and tiled roofs, replace extension flat roofs and re-roof terraces that need it. You get a clear written quote and honest advice.
Homes and Roofs in St George
St George roofs commonly include:
- Victorian terraces with slate or concrete tiles
- Chimney stacks shared between neighbours
- Rear extensions with flat roofs
- Bay windows with small roofs
- Loft conversions on some streets
- Exposed roofs on the hillsides
The most common call-outs in St George are roof leaks on older terraces, chimney repointing and leaking extension roofs. On hillside streets, wind-lifted slates and ridge tiles are a regular problem after storms.
Shared chimney stacks are best repaired as a whole. If work involves cutting into or rebuilding a shared stack, the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 may apply, so it is worth speaking to your neighbour early.

St George Roofing FAQs
My chimney is shared. Who pays for repairs?
That is usually agreed between neighbours. Repairing the whole stack at once is often cheaper and avoids repeat scaffold costs.
Why do my slates keep blowing off?
Older nails rust and hillside roofs catch the wind. Refixing with copper or stainless fixings, or re-slating, usually solves it.
Can you replace my extension roof?
Yes. Most domestic extension roofs are replaced in one to three days in EPDM or GRP.
