Roofers in Kesgrave and Martlesham
Newer estates, dry ridge systems, extensions and loft conversions. Roof repairs and roof windows across Kesgrave, Grange Farm and Martlesham Heath.
Kesgrave and Martlesham Heath were mostly built from the 1970s onwards, so the roofs here are different from central Ipswich: concrete interlocking tiles, ridges and verges that were bedded in mortar on the older estates and dry fixed on the newer ones, and lots of extensions and loft conversions.
One of our Checkatrade reviews in IP5 sums up a typical job: a broken tile, some ridge work and a noise in the roof that other contractors couldn't find, fixed the day after Lee came to look.

Roofing in Kesgrave and Martlesham
On the older parts of Kesgrave, ridge and verge mortar is now old enough to crack and fall out, and swapping it for a dry ridge and dry verge system is often the long-term fix. On newer homes in Grange Farm and Martlesham Heath, dry fix caps and clips occasionally work loose in high winds and need refitting.
Single-storey extensions, garages and dormers are everywhere here, so we do a lot of flat roof and extension roof work, and plenty of roof windows for loft rooms.

Reviews from Kesgrave and Martlesham
- ★★★★★10/10
"Lee came out the same day that I made the request and explained what was needed to be done. Agreed for the work to go ahead and it was completed the following day. The work involved replacing a broken tile; work on the ridge tiles and solving an issue of a noise in the roof that other contractors had not solved. Work carried out professionally and would use company again."

"I had the chimney repointed, new pot and cowl. Leigh provided a quick response with a reasonable price from the start, very simple and easy to organise the work, he turned up on time, very polite and did a great job. There's not much more you could ask from a tradesman. Highly recommended"
