We work daily across every Coventry postcode, CV1 (city centre and Hillfields), CV2 (Wyken, Stoke, Walsgrave), CV3 (Cheylesmore, Whitley, Willenhall, Binley), CV4 (Canley, Tile Hill, Westwood Heath), CV5 (Allesley, Chapelfields, Eastern Green, our own base), CV6 (Radford, Coundon, Foleshill) and CV7 (Keresley, Ash Green, Meriden). If it's a Coventry address, we're on it.
Coventry is our home city and always has been. Founded in 1973 by David Morgan and now run by his son-in-law Lyndon Small alongside daughter Georgina, the business trades from 46 Drayton Cres in Upper Eastern Green (CV5 7EN). Every crew member lives locally, every van is signwritten, and every quote is followed up in person, not by a call-centre. When Coventry surveyors, letting agents and estate managers need a roofer they can put their name to, they call us first.
From our CV5 yard we reach anywhere inside the ring road inside 15–20 minutes and every CV1–CV6 address inside 30. Genuine emergencies, active leaks, blown-off ridge tiles, storm-loosened chimneys, are prioritised for same-day make-safe. Non-urgent survey appointments are usually booked within 24–48 hours.
Coventry's housing stock is one of the most varied in the Midlands: pre-1900 red-brick terraces around Earlsdon, Chapelfields and Stoke, inter-war semis across Coundon, Cheylesmore and Radford, post-war estates in Tile Hill, Willenhall and Wood End, and the constant flow of new-build extensions and dormers across Eastern Green, Finham and Westwood Heath. We've re-roofed every type and know what each will throw at you, from cast-iron nail-sickness on 1920s slate to sagging concrete tile roofs from the 1970s reaching end of life together.
The most common jobs we're called to in Coventry are: slipped and cracked concrete tiles on 1960s–70s estates, failed cement-bedded ridges (we replace with dry-fix), lead flashing failures at chimneys on the older terraces, valley leaks on the 1930s semis, and full re-roofs where owners have inherited a roof that's had one repair too many. Flat-roof replacements on rear extensions and porches are constant, and emergency call-outs peak after every winter storm off the M6.

53 years trading, family-run
Established in 1973 by David Morgan and now run by Lyndon Small and his family, we've been fixing roofs across the region longer than most of Coventry's current housing stock has been standing.

Local roofing issues
What actually goes wrong
on Coventry's roofs.
Property type, building age, climate and exposure all shape the failure patterns we see across Coventry. These are the ones we're called to most.
Ageing 1960s–70s concrete tile roofs
Large parts of Coventry were re-roofed in concrete tile between 1965 and 1980, Tile Hill, Willenhall, Wood End, parts of Eastern Green. Those roofs are now 45–60 years old, at or beyond their design life. The tiles themselves may still look sound while the underlay behind them has torn and the battens have started to lose grip on the nails. It's the number one reason we're called for whole-house re-roofs in Coventry today.
Cement-bedded ridges on inter-war semis
The rows of 1920s–30s semis across Coundon, Radford, Cheylesmore and Whoberley almost universally have cement-bedded ridge tiles that are now cracking, dropping mortar, and letting wind-driven rain in at the very top of the slope. Since 2015 BS 5534 has required mechanical fixing, every ridge we replace goes down as a dry-fix system so it won't need touching again in your ownership.
Chimney and lead issues on Victorian terraces
Earlsdon, Chapelfields, Stoke Heath and the streets around the city centre are dominated by pre-1900 terraces with tall shared chimneys and deep valleys between properties. Lead flashings on those chimneys are often original, or badly patched with mastic. Repointing, re-flaunching, cowl fitting and Code 4/5 lead re-dressing on those stacks is one of our most common jobs.
Storm exposure from the west
Coventry sits in BS 5534 wind zone 2 with pockets of zone 3 exposure on the western edge, Allesley, Eastern Green, Westwood Heath. Every tile clip specification we write accounts for that. It's also why we see a clear spike in emergency call-outs after any named Atlantic storm rolls in off the M6 corridor.

Do you cover Coventry?
Yes, Coventry is one of our core service areas. Morgan Roofing has been trading since 1973 and we work across Coventry weekly on everything from single tile repairs to full re-roofs, flat roof systems, lead work and commercial projects.
How quickly can you reach Coventry?
From our CV5 base we're typically on site in Coventry for a survey within 24–48 hours of your call. Genuine emergencies, active leaks, storm damage, tiles blown off, are prioritised and normally attended the same day. We do our best to answer the phones any time, day or night.
How much does roofing cost in Coventry?
Prices in Coventry are the same as anywhere else on our books, every job is priced individually and quoted in writing. As a rough guide, small repairs start around £150–£350, a semi-detached re-roof typically £7,000–£12,000, and flat roof replacements £1,800–£6,000 depending on system and size. Free drone survey first, then an itemised written quote, no call-out fee.
Do you offer emergency roofing in Coventry?
Yes. We do our best to answer the phones any time, day or night. If your Coventry property has active water ingress, storm damage or a chimney leaning after high winds, we'll usually reach you the same day to make safe and diagnose. A permanent repair is quoted separately once the property is watertight.
Are you insured to work on my Coventry property?
Yes, £5 million public liability and £10 million employers' liability, evidence provided in writing before we start. Every operative is PASMA and IPAF trained for safe access and we work to BS 5534:2014+A2:2018 for pitched roofing and BS 8747 for felt flat roofs.
Do you handle listed or conservation properties in Coventry?
Yes. Where Coventry includes listed buildings or conservation areas, we match materials to the original spec, natural slate, clay plain tiles, hand-made pantiles, lime pointing and Code 4/5 lead, and liaise with the conservation officer or your architect. Our 53 years' experience with period stock in this region is the reason we're often specified by surveyors.
Do you provide a written guarantee for work in Coventry?
Yes, all workmanship is guaranteed in writing on completion, issued in your name for the Coventry property address. Manufacturer material warranties (typically 30–40 years on tiles and membranes) are registered separately so cover survives even if you sell.
Do you take a deposit for jobs in Coventry?
No deposit is required for domestic jobs under £2,000 anywhere in Coventry. Jobs over £2,000 use a staged-payment schedule set out in your written quote, never pay a large upfront lump sum to any roofer.
Which Coventry postcodes do you cover?
Every one, CV1 through CV8 and the surrounding CV rural postcodes. That includes the city centre, Earlsdon, Coundon, Radford, Chapelfields, Eastern Green, Allesley, Tile Hill, Canley, Westwood Heath, Cheylesmore, Whitley, Willenhall, Binley, Wyken, Stoke, Walsgrave, Foleshill, Keresley and Ash Green.
Can you match tiles on a 1930s Coventry semi?
Yes. Concrete pantiles and plain tiles from the inter-war Coundon, Radford and Cheylesmore semis are still made, Marley, Redland and Sandtoft all produce close matches. Where the exact original is discontinued we source reclaimed tiles or blend salvage with new. Drone photography before we start means the finished roof matches the existing streetscape.
