Roof Replacement in Huntingdon

Comparing quotes for a new roof

A new roof is a big spend, and most people sensibly get more than one quote. One Bedford customer did exactly that, got three, and told us ours was by far the most detailed, with everything itemised so they knew what they were paying for. If you're getting quotes for a roof in Huntingdon, here's what to check on every one of them, ours included.

What to look for on any roofing quote

  1. Is the scaffold included? Up, down and for how long.
  2. Is the skip on there? Old tiles and battens have to go somewhere.
  3. Is the membrane named? A breathable, BBA-approved membrane is not the same as cheap felt.
  4. How are the ridge and verges finished? Dry ridge and dry verge systems, or mortar.
  5. Are eaves support trays included? They stop the membrane sagging at the gutter.
  6. What about the loft insulation? The best time to top it up is while the roof is open.
  7. Who arranges Building Control? We do, and it's on the quote.
  8. Is the guarantee in writing? Ours is.

We even list things like a portable toilet for the team on a full re-roof. Nothing should be a surprise.

Huntingdon houses

Huntingdon sits on the Great Ouse with Godmanchester across the river, and its housing spans the older streets near the town centre through to the estates that spread out as the town grew after the war, and on to Hartford and newer homes beyond. An older slate roof needs different thinking to a concrete-tiled one from the 1970s, so we look before we quote anything.

The run from Bedford is a straightforward one, so once a re-roof is booked the team is on site every working day until it is finished, with the house made watertight each evening.

Tiles or slate

  • Clay and concrete tiles to suit the house and the street
  • Natural Spanish slate where the roof calls for real slate
  • Man-made slate where it suits the budget and the look

Underneath, it's treated battens and counter-battens, lead in Code 4 or Code 5 where needed, and loft insulation topped up to 300mm or more. We're fully insured, and if you have any problems with the roof after we finish, we come back and fix the fault.

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.
Samuel Google
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.

Questions we get asked

Do you cover Godmanchester, Hartford and the villages round Huntingdon?

Yes. We cover the whole of PE29, including Godmanchester and Hartford, and the villages round the town.

Why is your quote longer than the others we have had?

Because it lists everything: scaffold, materials, skip, insulation, Building Control and the rest. Customers tell us it makes comparing quotes much easier.

Will the final bill match the written quote?

We work to the written quote. If something nobody could see turns up once the tiles are off, such as a rotten rafter, we photograph it and agree it with you before doing anything.
