We carry out roofing work regularly throughout Stevenage and the surrounding area. As the UK's first post-war new town, Stevenage has a very distinctive housing stock - the neighbourhood estates of Bedwell, Chells, Pin Green and Shephall were built primarily in the 1950s and 60s, and many of their roofs are now reaching an age where problems are becoming more frequent.
Alongside the new town estates, Stevenage Old Town retains a mix of Victorian and Edwardian properties with older roof types including natural slate and original chimney stacks. We work on both ends of the housing spectrum across SG1 and SG2, from period properties in the High Street conservation area to post-war semis and terraces across the town neighbourhoods.

Call the TeamHere is what tends to go wrong with roofs in Stevenage - and what to do about it.
The neighbourhood estates built across Stevenage in the 1950s and 60s - Bedwell, Chells, Pin Green, Shephall and the others - contain a large volume of concrete tile roofs now well into their lifespan. Ridge tiles lose their mortar bedding and become loose, valleys fail, and felt underlays that have never been replaced become brittle and stop shedding water properly. Garages and extensions from the same era often have original felt flat roofs that are long overdue replacement. EPDM rubber is the most practical and long-lasting replacement for these.
The Victorian and Edwardian properties in and around Stevenage Old Town have roof types that need different handling from the newer housing stock. Natural slate repairs, lead valley and flashing work, and lime mortar chimney repointing are all jobs we carry out regularly in the Old Town area. These older roofs can last many decades if maintained correctly - the key is using the right materials and understanding how period roofs are constructed.
Guttering failure is one of the most common roofing-related problems we deal with across Stevenage. Original uPVC guttering from the 1970s and 80s becomes brittle and cracks, joints fail, and brackets pull away from ageing timber fascia boards. When gutters stop working properly, water runs down the external wall and can cause penetrating damp and damage to the wall structure. Replacing guttering and fascias at the same time is the most efficient approach and is a popular job across the post-war estates.
Damp patches on ceilings, mortar debris on the ground after wind, tiles that have slipped or look out of alignment, and gutters that overflow or drip between the gutter and the wall - these are the signs that something needs attention. In our experience, dealing with a roofing problem early costs a fraction of repairing the water damage that builds up when it is left. We carry out free surveys across Stevenage and give you a straight answer on what needs doing and what can wait.
