Born and Raised in Norwich
Our Norwich roots give us an invaluable edge. We understand Norfolk's unique weather patterns—from coastal winds that test even the strongest roofs to winter storms that can cause sudden damage. We know the local architecture, from Victorian terraces in the Golden Triangle to modern developments in Broadland, and we're intimately familiar with local building regulations and conservation area requirements.
This local expertise means your roof will be built or repaired using the right materials and techniques for Norwich's specific challenges. We know which slate suppliers provide products that match heritage properties, which modern materials perform best in coastal areas, and which solutions offer the best value for typical Norfolk homes.
Being local also means we're never far away. We can typically reach most Norwich and Norfolk locations within 30-60 minutes—crucial for emergency call-outs when every minute counts. We're invested in this community because we live here too, and our reputation matters more to us than any single job.
