Roofers in Aberdeen

Roofing, leadwork and stonework across Aberdeen, where we are based, and Rosemount, Ferryhill, Bridge of Don, Dyce, Torry.

In short

Aberdeen is where we are based. It is a granite city, so most of the work is slate roofs on granite tenements, terraces and villas: slipped and broken slates, worn lead valleys and flashings, chimney heads and skews that need repointing, and flat roofs on extensions.

Roofing in Aberdeen

Aberdeen is built in granite, and the roofs on top of it are mostly natural slate, often well over a century old. On the tenements and terraces of Rosemount, Ferryhill and the streets around the centre the slates tend to outlast the nails that hold them, so the common call is slipped slates, tired lead in the valleys and at the dormers, and chimney heads where the pointing has washed out of the joints. The bigger West End villas add ornate dormers, skews and long runs of lead. Out in Bridge of Don and Dyce the housing is much newer, under concrete tiles, and there it is more often ridges and verges that have let go, and flat roofs on extensions and garages that are past their best. The weather off the North Sea finds every weak point, which is why so much of the work here is about keeping water out of the joints.
