Our Roofing Services
New Roof Installation

Riddings’ architectural landscape features a diverse mix of property styles, from converted industrial buildings that reflect the village’s mining heritage to contemporary homes. We’re experienced in working with various roofing materials including traditional slate—commonly found on Riddings’ period properties—as well as modern alternatives such as concrete tiles and eco-friendly options that provide enhanced insulation benefits.
Our new roof installations are designed to complement the distinctive character of your Riddings property while offering superior protection against Derbyshire’s variable weather conditions. Each project begins with a thorough assessment of your property’s specific requirements, ensuring the perfect roofing solution that balances aesthetics, durability, and value.
Flat Roofing

Flat roofs are particularly common on extensions, garages, and commercial premises throughout Riddings. Our systems are designed to address the specific challenges presented by Derbyshire’s climate, ensuring excellent drainage and preventing issues such as water pooling and frost damage.
We utilise the latest high-performance materials and techniques, including EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass, and built-up felt systems, all selected for their proven reliability in local conditions. For Riddings’ business properties, our flat roofing solutions combine durability with excellent thermal efficiency, potentially reducing your energy costs while extending the lifespan of your roof.
Gutter Repairs & Installation

Riddings properties face particular challenges from the region’s rainfall patterns. Our guttering solutions are designed to handle high water volumes efficiently, with options ranging from traditional cast iron systems—ideal for period properties in the historic parts of the village—to modern uPVC alternatives that offer low-maintenance benefits for contemporary homes.
Regular gutter maintenance is especially important for properties near the leafy areas of Riddings, where autumn leaf fall can lead to blockages and water damage if left unattended. Our comprehensive service includes cleaning, repairs, and full replacements, ensuring your property’s drainage system functions effectively year-round.
Fascia’s & Soffits Replacement

Our team offers a range of materials and finishes to complement Riddings’ diverse architectural styles, from heritage options suitable for older properties to contemporary designs that enhance modern homes. All installations are performed to exacting standards, ensuring optimal ventilation and long-term protection.
Properly maintained fascias and soffits are essential for protecting your roof’s timber structure from Derbyshire’s weather conditions. Our solutions not only enhance your property’s appearance but also improve ventilation, prevent timber decay, and reduce ongoing maintenance requirements.
Chimney Repairs & Repointing

Many Riddings homes, particularly those near St James Church and the historic village centre, feature traditional chimneys that require specialist attention. Our chimney repair and repointing services address structural issues and prevent water ingress, ensuring your chimney remains a safe and attractive feature of your home.
We’re particularly experienced in working on Riddings’ older properties, where sympathetic restoration techniques are essential to maintain character while improving functionality. From minor repointing to comprehensive rebuilds, our chimney work combines traditional craftsmanship with modern standards of safety and durability.
