Roofers in Earley

About Earley

Earley runs along the south-east side of Reading, out past the university. It's mostly Thirties semis on generous plots with long tree-lined streets, plus newer estates towards Lower Earley and the odd older house near the station.

All those mature trees are lovely — right up until a storm brings a branch down on a roof. We're regulars in Earley after bad weather, and for the quieter jobs in between.

Earley's housing stock

The Thirties semis have clay tiles, steep pitches and tile-hung gables, with chimney stacks still in regular use. They're well built, but at this age the felt underneath is past its best and the original fascias are tired.

The post-war infill is a mix of concrete tile and felt flat roofs. The newer builds have their own early-life snags — poorly bedded ridges and tiles that slip in high wind.

Roof work we do most in Earley

• Storm Damage Response — branches down and tiles off after storms hit the tree-lined streets.
• Roof Repairs — slipped clay tiles, broken ridges and leaking chimneys on the Thirties semis.
• Roofline, Fascia and Soffit — replacing the original timber fascias on houses of that era.
• Chimney Work — repointing and flashing on stacks that are still in use.
