Northampton sits at the eastern edge of our patch, an hour down the A428 and M1 from our Coventry base. We take on Northampton work where we can do it properly: surveyed by drone, quoted in writing with materials, labour, access, waste and VAT itemised, and guaranteed in writing on completion. That includes domestic re-roofs and repairs as well as commercial and industrial contracts on the distribution estates the town is known for.
Northampton is typically 50–60 minutes from our CV5 yard. Surveys are usually booked within 48 hours. For genuine emergencies we'll advise honestly on our arrival time and, where a same-day make-safe isn't realistic, we'll say so rather than leave you waiting.
Northampton's stock includes dense Victorian red-brick terraces with slate roofs in Abington, Kingsley and Far Cotton, inter-war semis across Kingsthorpe, Duston and Weston Favell, large post-war and modern estates east and south of the town, plus a very substantial warehousing and distribution sector along the M1 corridor.
Frequent Northampton work: slipped and nail-sick slate on Victorian terraces, dry-fix ridge replacement on inter-war semis, end-of-life concrete tile re-roofs on post-war estates, felt and GRP flat roof replacement on extensions and garages, roofline renewal, chimney repointing and lead work, and large-format commercial roofing on distribution units.

Concrete reasons
not marketing lines.

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 Northampton's current housing stock has been standing. That's not a marketing line, it's why chartered surveyors, letting agents and repeat customers ring us first.

We fly the drone across the whole roof, ridge, valleys, verges, flashings, gutter line, and send you the annotated photography with a written diagnosis. No ladders leaning against your Northampton property, no obligation, no cost.
Itemised written quotes
Materials, labour, access, waste removal and VAT itemised so you can see exactly where the money goes. Domestic jobs under £2,000 need no deposit; larger projects use clear staged payments.

All workmanship is guaranteed in writing on completion and manufacturer warranties (typically 30–40 years on tiles and membranes) are registered in your name. Our review record, 4.9★ across 35+ Google reviews, is built on Northampton customers we come back to service years later.
Local roofing issues
What actually goes wrong
on Northampton's roofs.
Property type, building age, climate and exposure all shape the failure patterns we see across Northampton. These are the ones we're called to most.
Nail-sick slate on Victorian terraces
Abington, Kingsley and Far Cotton carry rows of pre-1900 terraces roofed in slate on iron nails. Once nails corrode, slates slip after every gale. Repeated patching becomes false economy, a full strip and re-slate with breathable membrane, new battens and stainless fixings resets the clock for decades.
Post-war concrete tile estates ageing together
Whole estates east and north of Northampton were roofed in concrete tile in the same decade, so they reach end of life together. Underlay perishes long before the tiles do, which is why a roof can look sound from the pavement while the loft tells a very different story.
Open, exposed estate layouts
Wide, exposed estate roads mean serious wind loading on ridges, verges and eaves courses. Pre-2015 cement-bedded ridges are the usual casualty. We replace with mechanically fixed dry-fix systems and clip specifications matched to the correct BS 5534 wind zone for the address.
Distribution and warehouse roofing
The M1 corridor's warehousing brings large-format commercial work: leaking box gutters, corroded cut edges, failed rooflights, profile sheet replacement and over-cladding. SafeContractor accreditation, £15m combined insurance and PASMA/IPAF-trained operatives let us deliver phased or out-of-hours works safely.

Do you cover Northampton?
Yes, Northampton is one of our core service areas. Morgan Roofing has been trading since 1973 and we work across Northampton weekly on everything from single tile repairs to full re-roofs, flat roof systems, lead work and commercial projects.
How quickly can you reach Northampton?
From our CV5 base we're typically on site in Northampton 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 Northampton?
Prices in Northampton 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 Northampton?
Yes. We do our best to answer the phones any time, day or night. If your Northampton 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 Northampton 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 Northampton?
Yes. Where Northampton 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 Northampton?
Yes, all workmanship is guaranteed in writing on completion, issued in your name for the Northampton 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 Northampton?
No deposit is required for domestic jobs under £2,000 anywhere in Northampton. 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 Northampton postcodes do you cover?
NN1 through NN7, covering the town and the surrounding villages. Northampton sits at the eastern edge of our patch, so we'll confirm coverage for your specific address when you call.
Is Northampton too far for you to take on smaller repairs?
We'll always tell you honestly. Larger repairs, re-roofs, flat roof replacements and commercial contracts in Northampton are straightforward for us. For a very small single-tile repair we may suggest a closer local roofer rather than charge you for our travel, we'd rather give you a straight answer than an inflated quote.
