Roofers in Colchester
Our home patch. LM Roofing is based on Gosbecks Road, CO2, and has been fixing Colchester roofs for years, from Lexden terraces to Highwoods estates.
Colchester is where we're based, so it's where we're closest. Our yard is on Gosbecks Road, between Stanway and Shrub End, and a big share of our reviews come from CO2, CO3 and CO4: flat roofs replaced, chimney cowls fitted, lead flashing renewed, slipped tiles put back within the hour.
Being local means we can usually get round to look at a roof quickly, and we know the town's housing well. Lee quotes every job himself, in writing, and sends photos of the work.

Colchester roofs we work on
Colchester's older streets, in New Town, Lexden and around the Dutch Quarter, have Victorian and Edwardian houses with slate and clay tile roofs, decorative ridges and plenty of chimneys. The town centre and the Dutch Quarter are conservation areas, with listed buildings where repairs need matching materials.
Post-war estates such as Greenstead, Monkwick and Berechurch have concrete tiles, mortar-bedded ridges that are now reaching the end of their life, and lots of flat-roofed garages. Highwoods, Mile End and the garrison developments are newer, with dry fix systems and modern tiles. We repair and re-roof all of them.

Reviews from Colchester
- ★★★★★10/10
"We contacted Lee about a leak in our conservatory roof and he came to have a look within a couple of days and offered competitive quotes for a repair or a replacement. As we eventually planned to replace the roof we went with that option. The guys were friendly and professional, the roof was completed very quickly and the new skylight looks fantastic. If anyone is looking for any roof work I wouldn't hesitate to recommend LM Roofing."
- ★★★★★10/10
"Had a slate roof tile come off during last storm. Contacted Lee and he replied within a couple of minutes. Came round to have a look within 30 minutes and returned the next day in terrible weather to replace the missing tile. Very good service as two other people I contacted didn't even bother to reply. Would highly recommend."
