Roof Repairs in Kettering, Northamptonshire
A roof repair should fix the cause, not just the symptom. Water that shows itself over the bay window often enters at a valley three metres away; a damp chimney breast is usually a flashing, not a chimney fault. Our Kettering repairs start with a free drone survey that traces the leak to its source before a single tile is lifted, and you get the photographs to prove it.
Kettering's housing stock gives us the full range. Older streets around the Market Place and the Corn Exchange carry slate and clay tile roofs where the fixings and flashings are the first things to age. The estates spreading out towards Wicksteed Park and Barton Seagrave carry big concrete interlocking tiles, which crack in frost and slip in gales, and whose ridges and verges were mortar-bedded decades ago. Each gets the repair it actually needs.
Small jobs are still jobs. One tile, one flashing, one gutter joint: we do them, and we do them with the same survey-first approach as a full re-roof. If the honest answer is that the roof is nearing the end of its life, we say so and price the alternatives rather than sell repair after repair.
Emergencies are handled the same day where we possibly can: see our emergency repairs page. For wider coverage, our main Kettering roofing page and Corby repairs page sit alongside this one.
Repairs We Carry Out in Kettering
Leak tracing and repair
Water found at its source with the drone, then fixed: valleys, flashings, roofline junctions and penetrations, with photographs of the cause and the cure.
Tile and slate replacement
Slipped, cracked and storm-lifted tiles and slates matched to the existing roof and re-fixed properly, so the repair outlasts the next gale.
Ridges and verges
Failed mortar re-bedded, or upgraded to mechanical dry fix where the bedding keeps failing. See our dry ridge and dry verge page.
Chimney and flashing repairs
Soakers, cover flashings and lead aprons renewed on stacks over Kettering's older streets, the most common hidden cause of interior damp.
Storm repairs
Wind and rain damage repaired fast, photographed for your insurer if the work goes on a claim. Same-day response where we possibly can.
Second opinions
Told your Kettering roof needs a full replacement? We inspect it free and tell you honestly whether a repair would do instead.
How Hiring Us Works
Call or WhatsApp
Tell us what is going on and where you are. Most surveys are booked within days, and emergencies are treated the same day where we possibly can.
Free drone survey
We fly the roof and photograph every face, ridge, valley and flashing. You get to see the pictures, not just hear a summary.
A quote built on what we saw
The price follows the photographs. You will know which tiles failed, why the leak happened, and what the options are, including the cheap one.
The work, and the paperwork
We complete the job, clear up properly, and on bigger projects we handle planning and building controls through to sign-off.
Why Kettering Homeowners Choose Us for Repairs
Vetted and approved
We work to UK consumer protection laws and we are happy to be judged on the paperwork as much as the workmanship. Quotes are written, clear and itemised.
Insurance and buyer reports done properly
Storm claim, leak claim, or a house purchase you do not want to get wrong. We produce the detailed reports that decide these things, based on real evidence from the survey.
Red tape handled
Re-roofs and bigger alterations often touch planning rules and building controls. We manage both with the council so you never have to learn the jargon.
The drone goes up, always
It is the single biggest difference between us and a roofer quoting from the drive. Chimneys, ridges, valleys, flat roof edges and hard-to-reach slopes all get seen close up.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you find where the leak is coming from?
The drone photographs the whole roof, we trace the entry point against where the water shows inside, and we show you both on the photographs before quoting the repair.
Do you take on small repairs?
Yes. A single slipped tile is a job we do, with the same survey-first approach as a large one. If a repair is not worth doing, we will tell you that instead.
Can you repair older slate roofs?
Yes. The slate roofs on Kettering's older streets are worth repairing properly with matched slate and correct fixings, and almost never need full replacement unless the fixings have failed generally.
How fast can you come out?
Emergencies are treated the same day where we possibly can. Standard repairs are usually surveyed within days of your call.
Do you cover all parts of Kettering?
Yes. We work across Kettering and its surrounding neighbourhoods and villages, including Barton Seagrave, Weekley and Burton Latimer, from our base in Corby. Call or WhatsApp to check your address.

Based in Corby, NN17, and working across North Northamptonshire.
