Solihull sits fifteen miles west of our Coventry yard, a 25-minute run via the A45. It's a borough where our written itemised quotes, drone survey photography and £15m insurance align exactly with the way homeowners here expect to procure trade work. We've re-roofed detached houses in Dorridge, replaced rooflines in Shirley, installed dormers in Knowle and repaired chimneys across the town centre for decades.
From CV5 to Solihull town centre is around 25 minutes via the A45. Emergencies are attended same-day where possible; survey appointments booked inside 48 hours. Solihull work is typically substantial enough that we plan crews and materials for full days on site rather than passing visits.
Solihull's stock is dominated by substantial detached and semi-detached property. Mature 1930s detached and semis run through Solihull town, Olton and Shirley. Post-war and 1960s–70s estates cluster across Sharmans Cross, Damson Wood and Elmdon. Premium 1980s-onward developments spread through Dorridge, Knowle, Bentley Heath and Balsall Common. Roof coverings range from clay plain tile on the older stock through concrete tile on the mid-century estates to premium interlocking tile and slate on the newer developments.
Solihull jobs on our board are typically substantial: full re-roofs on 1930s and mid-century detached property, dormer construction and roof-lift extensions, premium flat-roof systems on modern extensions (GRP fibreglass or EPDM rubber to a high spec), chimney rebuilds, roofline replacements in cast-iron-effect uPVC to match period property, and lead work on the older detached stock.

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 Solihull'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.

Local roofing issues
What actually goes wrong
on Solihull's roofs.
Property type, building age, climate and exposure all shape the failure patterns we see across Solihull. These are the ones we're called to most.
1930s detached at end of first roof life
Solihull's substantial 1930s detached and semi-detached property carries clay plain tile or concrete tile roofs now 85–95 years old on the clay and 40–60 years since first re-cover on the concrete. Either way, many are due for a proper strip and re-roof rather than another round of patching. Written itemised quotes make the numbers transparent.
Premium extensions and dormers
The volume of premium extensions, dormers and roof-lift conversions across Dorridge, Knowle, Bentley Heath and Balsall Common is unusually high. Those projects demand accurate lead detailing, correctly specified flat-roof systems (GRP or EPDM), and proper falls, the detail that decides whether a modern extension leaks in year three or lasts 25 years.
Tree-lined avenues and gutter debris
Solihull's mature tree canopy is a defining feature and a real practical issue for roofs. Leaf debris blocks gutters and valleys, water tracks back under the tiles and rots the fascia timber. Regular clearance and roofline replacement in aluminium-lined or high-grade uPVC extends the life of the roof edge significantly.
Chimney weathering on older detached
Older detached property across Solihull, Olton and Shirley carries tall brick chimneys with often-original lead and mid-20th century cement pointing. Rebuilds, NHL repointing, re-flaunching and Code 4/5 lead re-dressing are among the most common jobs we do in the borough.

Do you offer emergency roofing in Solihull?

If your Solihull 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 Solihull 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 Solihull?
Yes. Where Solihull 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 Solihull?
Yes, all workmanship is guaranteed in writing on completion, issued in your name for the Solihull 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 Solihull?
No deposit is required for domestic jobs under £2,000 anywhere in Solihull. 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.
Do you install premium flat roofs on extensions in Solihull?
Yes, Dorridge, Knowle, Bentley Heath and Balsall Common carry a high volume of premium modern extensions. We specify GRP fibreglass for the strongest domestic system, or EPDM rubber for large single-piece covers. Both come with manufacturer material warranties (typically 20–25 years) and our written workmanship guarantee.
Can you replace roofline on a period property in Solihull?
Yes. Roofline replacements on 1930s and older property in Solihull are typically specified in cast-iron-effect uPVC or aluminium-lined systems, colour-matched and with correct fall set from ridge to downpipe. We photograph the existing detailing before we strip so the new roofline matches the character of the property.
