Who are Leicester Roofing Pros?
Leicester Roofing Pros is a roofing crew that works on homes and commercial buildings in and around Leicester. If you are searching for Leicester roofing help, you probably have one of three problems: a leak, a roof that looks tired, or a building that needs a proper look before you buy, sell or insure it.
We deal with all three. That means pitched roofs covered in concrete tile, clay tile or slate, flat roofs on extensions and garages, and the lead flashing, fascias, soffits and guttering that keep water out of the walls. We keep the language simple and tell you what we find, including when a small repair is the better choice than a big job.
What roofing work can you help with?
Our work falls into five areas. Pick the one that matches your problem and read the page for more detail.
- Roof replacement for roofs that are worn out, sagging or past sensible repair.
- Roof repair and leak detection for slipped tiles, failed flashings, damp patches and drips in the loft.
- Storm damage repair after high winds, falling branches or heavy rain.
- Commercial roofing for shops, offices, warehouses and industrial units.
- Roof inspection with a written report for buyers, sellers, landlords and owners who want to know where they stand.
How does a roofing job work?
Most jobs follow the same simple path, whether it is one tile or a whole roof.
- You get in touch. Tell us what you can see, where the water is getting in and roughly how old the roof is.
- We look at the roof. We check it from the ground and up close where it is safe to do so, and we take photographs of the problem areas.
- You receive a written quote. It sets out the work, the materials and what is not included, so you can compare it with others.
- We do the work. We protect your garden and drive as far as we reasonably can, and we clear the waste away at the end.
- We talk it through. You see photos of the finished work and hear what to watch for in future.
Leicester has a lot of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many 1930s semis in areas such as Knighton and Aylestone, and large post-war estates. Each type has its own weak spots. Terraces often have shared valleys and old lead. Semis from the thirties can have worn clay tiles and tired chimney flashings. Newer homes tend to have concrete tiles and short felt lives.
A crew that works in this area every week knows what to look for. We also know the weather the East Midlands tends to deliver: wet autumns, strong winter winds and the odd hard frost. We cover Oadby, Wigston, Birstall, Syston, Glenfield, Blaby and Thurmaston as well as the city itself.

Questions about roofing in Leicester
How do I get a roofing quote in Leicester?
Call 0116 496 0168 or use the short form on this site and tell us what the problem is. We will arrange a time to look at the roof and then send a written quote. The quote lists the work, the materials and anything not included. There is nothing to sign until you are happy with it, and you are free to compare it with other quotes.
Do you work on both homes and businesses?
Yes. We work on houses, flats, shops, offices and industrial units around Leicester. Pitched roofs covered in tile or slate are common on homes. Flat roofs and low-pitch coverings are more common on commercial buildings and extensions. The materials and access arrangements differ, so each type of job is quoted separately and in writing.
Is it better to repair my roof or replace it?
It depends on what is wrong and how widespread it is. A few slipped tiles or a worn flashing is usually a repair. If tiles are crumbling across a whole slope, the timbers are damaged or leaks keep returning, replacement may cost less over time. We will tell you which one we think makes sense and show you the evidence.
Which areas around Leicester do you cover?
We work across the city and in nearby towns and villages including Oadby, Wigston, Birstall, Syston, Glenfield, Blaby and Thurmaston. If you are a little further out, ask. Travel time is the main limit, and we would rather say so honestly than promise something we cannot manage.
What should I look for when choosing a roofer?
Ask for a written quote, ask what insurance the firm carries and ask to see it. Check whether they belong to a recognised trade body and look at recent examples of their work. Be careful with anyone who knocks on your door saying your roof is in a bad state, or who asks for the full payment up front.
