Lowestoft

The roofs we see most in Lowestoft

Every part of town has its own kind of roof, and each one tends to fail in its own way.

Victorian and Edwardian terraces

Around the town centre, Kirkley and South Lowestoft, many terraces still have their original natural slate. After a hundred years the nails give up and slates start to slip. Sometimes a repair will do. Often it’s time for a new roof.

Pitched roofing

Post-war houses

Across Oulton, Normanston and Pakefield, most homes have concrete interlocking tiles. The tiles last well. It’s usually the ridges, verges and the felt underneath that go first.

Roof repairs

Bungalows, extensions and dormers

Carlton Colville and Oulton Broad have plenty of flat-roofed extensions, garages and dormers. Flat roofs are where we see most leaks, and most can be replaced with an insulated warm roof.

Flat roofing

Built for the coast

Lowestoft takes the wind straight off the North Sea. On every roof here we pay extra attention to the parts the weather finds first.

  • Ridges and verges fixed mechanically, not just bedded in mortar
  • Leadwork dressed and fixed properly around chimneys and walls
  • Fixings chosen to stand up to salt air

Roofing and skylight fitting

“These lads were absolutely amazing from start to finish. Even prior to beginning their work I was treated with ease and confidence when discussing what I would like done. They made sure that I was happy with what was discussed over the phone as well as at each step when the work was being carried out. Whist working they were all polite and well mannered. The final product is amazing and I’m so happy to have it done, it’s a project that had been needing done for a while but since my dad’s passing I haven’t been able to. These lads did a wonderful job in helping me and my mum to achieve that.”

Cladding work

“Aiden and his team quoted me for some cladding work we wanted. Quote was good so asked him to proceed, Aiden advised the work would not be completed until March. They then he called and came round this week and completed the work. Fantastic job looks great and the work area was left clean and tidy. Highly recommend Aiden and his team for any roofing or cladding work. Thank you and your team”

FAQs

Questions from Lowestoft

Yes. District Roofing is based in Lowestoft and covers the whole town, including Oulton Broad, Oulton, Pakefield, Kirkley, Carlton Colville, Corton and Kessingland, and the coast down to Southwold and Reydon.

It affects the fixings more than the covering. On the coast we pay particular attention to mechanically fixed ridges and verges, good lead work and fixings that stand up to salt, because that is where wind and weather get in first.

Several parts of Lowestoft are, including areas around the historic High Street and in South Lowestoft and Kirkley. East Suffolk Council publishes the maps. We check at the survey and tell you if it affects the materials you can use.

Because we are based in the town, we can usually get to Lowestoft jobs sooner than firms travelling in. Call 01502 445508, tell us what has happened, and we will give you an honest time.

No. Surveys and written quotes are free, with no obligation to go ahead.
