- Expert Roofing Contractors in Leicester
After a Leicester roofer who actually turns up and does the job properly? Leicester Roofing Contractors handles repairs, replacements, new roofs and everything in between for homes and businesses across the city, with fair pricing, honest advice and a workmanship guarantee on every job.
Leicester Roofing Contractors looks after roofs for people and businesses right across the city, and we treat every one of them as if it were our own. Maybe you have a leak that needs chasing down, an ageing roof that is ready for replacing, or you simply want things kept in good order before winter arrives. Whatever has brought you here, you will find a local team that is easy to talk to and genuinely good at what it does.
It is easy to forget how much your roof puts up with. Rain, wind, frost and sun work at it constantly, and the moment a weak point appears, water starts looking for a way in. That is why we offer the complete range of roofing work under one roof, so whatever the fault or the project, you have a single local team to call rather than chasing round for different tradespeople.
Our services stretch right across the trade. Pitched roofs in slate and tile, flat roofs in modern systems, guttering and roofline work, chimneys, leadwork, dry verge and ridge, roof and gutter cleaning, and drone surveys too, all carried out for both homes and commercial premises throughout Leicester and the areas around it.
We may be a new name, but the way we work is refreshingly old-fashioned: turn up when we say we will, give straight advice, do the job to a proper standard, and stand behind it afterwards. Every completed job comes with our workmanship guarantee, and we would like nothing more than to earn your recommendation to the people you know.

Whatever your roof needs, there is a good chance we do it. From the quick fixes to the full-scale projects, our Leicester team brings the same care, the same quality materials and the same eye for a tidy finish to every job that comes our way. Here is the full spread of what we offer across the city.
A roof rarely fails at a convenient moment. One day everything is fine, the next there is a damp patch spreading across the ceiling or a tile lying in the garden. The trick is to deal with it early, because what starts as a minor annoyance can quickly become an expensive one once water gets a foothold. Our Leicester team gets to repairs quickly and fixes them properly.
We have put right just about every fault a roof can develop, and we use materials chosen to weather Leicester’s worst so the repair actually stays fixed. No quick bodges that fail by the next downpour, just a solid repair that lets you stop thinking about your roof.
There comes a point where patching an old roof stops making sense and a fresh start is the wiser investment. Whether yours has simply worn out, keeps springing new leaks, or you are extending and need the roof to match, we will design and fit a new roof made to protect your Leicester home for decades.
Pitched or flat, slate or tile, natural or man-made, we work across the lot and will help you land on the right choice for your property and your budget. Every new roof goes on with quality materials and careful workmanship, and every one is backed by our guarantee.
Extensions, garages, dormers, outbuildings and commercial units all tend to call for a flat roof, and while it looks simple, it is one of the easiest things to get wrong. Fitted well, though, a modern flat roof will keep water out for decades. We install, repair and replace flat roofs across Leicester using systems built to last.
Which covering suits you best comes down to the building and how it will be used, and we will talk you through it honestly rather than pushing one option on everyone:
There is a reason slate and tile roofs have stood the test of time. Done properly, they are handsome, hard-wearing and can outlast the people who fit them. Our Leicester team installs new slate and tile roofs and carries out careful repairs, helping your property keep both its looks and its weatherproofing.
We are equally at home on an older property that needs sympathetic slate work as we are on a newer build finished in tile. Full roof, single tile or storm damage put right, we take real care to match the work to your existing roof so any repair sits in neatly rather than standing out.
Inspecting a roof used to mean ladders, scaffolding and a fair bit of risk. Not any more. We use camera-equipped drones to survey roofs right across Leicester, capturing a clear, detailed view of every slope, ridge and chimney from the safety of the ground.
It is faster, safer and easier on your wallet, and because the drone reaches the spots that are awkward to get to on foot, nothing slips through unnoticed. Best of all, you get to see the footage yourself, so you know exactly what shape your roof is in before deciding anything.
The roofline does a quietly vital job. Your gutters, fascias and soffits work as a team to catch rainwater and carry it away from the building, keeping your walls dry and your roof timbers sound. When they start to fail, damp is usually not far behind. We fit and repair roofline systems throughout Leicester.
Gutters sag, block and leak over time, and old timber fascias and soffits rot and flake. Swapping them for modern uPVC puts an end to the trouble and keeps the whole roofline looking sharp, with barely any upkeep needed from you.
Left to their own devices, roofs and gutters gather moss, leaves, silt and grime, and none of it does your property any favours. Blocked gutters overflow, moss lifts and damages tiles, and water ends up where it should not be. Our Leicester cleaning service clears the lot and gets everything flowing freely again.
Because we are roofers first and foremost, we keep an eye out for any developing problems while we are up there, so you get a heads-up long before a small fault turns into a big bill. Whether it is a one-off tidy-up or regular upkeep, we will leave your roof and gutters in top order.
The places a roof is most likely to leak, around chimneys, in valleys, where it meets a wall, tend to be sealed with lead, and for good reason. Nothing else shapes to fit quite so well or lasts quite so long. Our Leicester team carries out leadwork of every kind, from a single tired flashing to a full lead roof.
When a roof springs a leak, worn or badly fitted lead is often the culprit. We use quality lead, shape it by hand and weld the joints properly, so the seal we form keeps water out for years rather than months.
Standing tall and exposed on every side, the chimney takes more punishment than any other part of the roof, and over the years the mortar crumbles, the brickwork loosens and the leadwork tires. Ignore it and you are looking at leaks, damp and, in the worst cases, an unsafe stack. We repair and repoint chimneys throughout Leicester.
Whether yours needs fresh pointing, new flashing, a few pots replacing or a full rebuild, our team handles it safely and tidily, leaving your chimney solid and sealed against the weather once more.
The mortar that once held ridge and verge tiles in place was never going to last forever. As it ages it cracks and drops away, leaving those tiles loose and your roof edges open to wind and water. We fit modern dry verge and dry ridge systems across Leicester that fix the tiles down mechanically and never need re-bedding.
By securing the most exposed edges of your roof without relying on mortar, these systems keep everything firmly in place, shrug off the wind and add real years to the roof’s life. They come in a range of colours to match your existing tiles neatly.
