Roof Repairs in Kempston

Does it need someone tonight?

When something goes wrong with a roof, the first question is how urgent it is. Here is a rough guide for Kempston homeowners.

Ring now

  • Water coming through a ceiling or running down an inside wall
  • Tiles or ridge pieces blown off and lying on a path or drive
  • A ceiling bulging or sagging with water

We run a 24-hour call-out for leaks and storm damage. Meanwhile, put a bucket under the drip and switch off power to the room if water is near a light fitting.

Book a visit this week

  • A damp patch that grows after heavy rain
  • One or two slipped tiles you can see from the garden
  • Lead lifting at the chimney or a side wall

Worth a look before winter

  • Moss building up, gutters overflowing
  • Mortar falling from the ridge or verge

A typical repair, start to finish

One customer rang us at about half five in the evening with water coming in. we were out the next day. The felt along the bottom of the roof had rotted where it ran into the gutter. We opened up about a metre along the eaves, renewed the felt and fitted an eaves support tray, so water now runs straight into the gutter. The customer told us afterwards that everything has stayed completely dry.

That job is a good example of the eaves, which is one of the most common places a roof lets go. The felt sags behind the gutter, holds water and rots, and the damp shows up inside as a patch near the top of the wall.

How we keep repairs sensible

  1. We find the cause. The stain inside is not always under the fault, so we check the loft and the roof.
  2. We photograph it. You see what we see before deciding anything.
  3. We use the right access. Many repairs can be done from our tower scaffold instead of a full scaffold.
  4. We repair what is wrong. If a localised repair will do the job, that is what we quote for.

Every repair comes with our written company guarantee, and if anything goes wrong, we come back.

How we work

Honest roofers: what the roof needs, not what pays best

Read our Google reviews and the same things come up: honest advice, the most detailed quote they received, and a team who arrive smart and leave the site tidy.

  1. 01 A repair when a repair will do

    A Bedford customer with a chimney leak got new lead and a metre of felt, not a new roof. "There was no need to start doing loads of unnecessary work," in her words.

  2. 02 Itemised, line by line

    Scaffold, skip, materials, even the portable toilet on a big job. You see exactly what you are paying for.

  3. 03 Quick when it is leaking

    Customers who called in the early evening with water coming in had us there the next day.

  4. 04 Done the proper way

    Dry ridge and verge systems, eaves support trays, welded lead, breathable membranes, and moss scraped off by hand. We never jet-wash a roof.

A 120-year-old roof, matched to the original

“The finished roof looks great, and is an excellent match to the original which is important in Letchworth.”
Kevin Google review
We noticed the felt in our loft was deteriorating quite badly, so decided it was time to get the roof replaced. We had three different companies out to quote, with Jude from Ultimate Roof Care being the last. Jude came across really well, very polite and well spoken, and took the time to explain everything properly. His quotation was by far the most detailed, with everything clearly itemised so we knew exactly what we were paying for. The team did exactly what was promised and we're really pleased with our new roof. We'd seen their vans working around Bedfordshire before, which was reassuring too. More than happy with the whole experience and would definitely recommend Ultimate Roof Care.

We had a bad leak coming into the roof and couldn't work out where it was coming from. We called Jude and he came out, had a proper look and identified the problem around the chimney. Our house was built in the 1980s and he showed us where the old felt had started collapsing around that area. One of his guys then came out and replaced the lead around the chimney as well as roughly a metre of felt around it. Jude explained that there was no need to start doing loads of unnecessary work and that a localised repair should sort the problem, which we really appreciated. The exact area where the water was coming in before has stayed completely dry. Really happy with the repair and thought the price was very fair. The guys were polite, turned up looking smart and were very professional. We're based in Bedford and would definitely recommend them.

We'd been having problems with a leak on our bungalow roof, despite previously having another roofing company out, so we decided it was time to have the whole roof replaced. Jude was brilliant from the start, and the detail in their quotation was on another level compared to the others we received. Everything was explained step by step, from the scaffolding and materials being delivered to the skip, even a portable toilet for the workers. Their price was very competitive too, but it was really the attention to detail and how professional they were that made us choose them. What a great company. We couldn't recommend Ultimate Roof Care enough!

I had spray foam insulation in my loft which was causing issues with selling my property. Jude explained the full process, gave me a clear written quote and even arranged for an electrician to safely disconnect and reconnect my solar panels. Once the foam was removed, they bagged and cleared every bit of waste and left the loft spotless. The surveyor who came afterwards commented on the quality of the job. True professionals, I'd highly recommend them.

I booked a roof MOT with Ultimate Roofcare because I wanted to be sure everything was in good condition before the winter. They showed me photos of a couple of cracked tiles and some minor pointing that needed attention, but reassured me the rest of the roof was in good shape. They fixed everything there and then at a very fair price. No pushy sales, just genuine advice and quality workmanship.

After the really heavy rain the other day we had quite a bad leak come through and called Jude at around 5 or 6 in the evening. He came out the very next day. Owen then came out shortly afterwards and got the repair sorted for us. They opened up roughly a metre along the bottom of the roof, renewed the felt in that area and fitted a new eaves support tray system. We've had more rain since and everything has stayed completely dry.

Jude and his efficient team of workers have done a complete roof replacement with slates on our 200 year old house. They have done an excellent job and the roof is now entirely watertight and looks very smart. Quality materials and experienced skills have resulted in a great job and peace of mind for us. Thankyou to all. Richard and Lorna

I found Ultimate Roofcare in the local Bedford Bulletin. Joe came along to check out the loft. Jude came along later in one of his branded vehicles (big reassurance) and explained that he could do the job in 4 days with 8-10 men. By Wednesday evening the roof tiles had been removed and replaced, a new roof lining installed, 3 layers of insulation placed between the joists, ventilated soffits and new gutters fitted and a good tidy-up completed. If you need any roofing or loft work done, you would struggle to find a better company.

Before you ring

Questions we get asked

What is an eaves support tray?

A rigid tray fitted at the bottom of the roof under the felt. It stops old felt sagging and rotting behind the gutter, so water drains into the gutter instead of the wall.

Can you fix one slipped tile on my Kempston house?

Yes. Small jobs are welcome. We will also check why it slipped, because a failed nail or soft batten can mean others will follow.

What should I do while I wait for you?

Catch the water, move belongings out of the way and turn off the power in that room if water is near any electrics. Please do not go up on the roof yourself.
