Temple Leadworks provides new roof construction for homes, extensions and other buildings across Hertfordshire and surrounding areas.
With over 35 years’ experience, we construct tiled, slate and flat roofs using appropriate materials and proven roofing techniques to provide a durable, weather-resistant finish.
New tiled and slate roofs
Whether you’re building a new property, adding an extension or replacing an existing roof that has reached the end of its useful life, Temple Leadworks can undertake the complete roofing work required.
We install both tiled and slate roofs, taking care over the construction, detailing and finish to provide a roof that complements the building as well as protecting it from the elements.
Replacement roofs
There are occasions when an existing roof has deteriorated beyond the point where ongoing repairs provide a practical long-term solution.
Where more substantial work is required, we can assess the existing roof and advise on the appropriate approach, from replacing the roof covering through to more extensive reconstruction where necessary.
Our experience includes major roof reconstruction on older and listed properties as well as more conventional replacement roofing.
Leadwork and roof detailing
Correct detailing is essential to the performance and longevity of any roof.
As specialist leadworkers, we undertake the leadwork required as part of new roof construction, including valleys, flashings and other junctions where effective weatherproofing is particularly important.
Flat roof construction
We also provide flat roofing for extensions, garages, outbuildings and other suitable applications.
Temple Leadworks is an approved installer of EPDM rubber roofing, a durable and low-maintenance flat-roof system backed by a 25-year guarantee.
For more information, see our EPDM Rubber Roofing service.
Roofing for older and historic properties
Our experience also includes substantial roofing and reconstruction work on listed and historic buildings, where the existing structure and character of the property require a more specialist approach.
Where your project involves a listed, historic or conservation-sensitive property, find out more about our Listed Building Roofing & Restoration service.
