Common roof repairs on Cambridge homes
A lot of the housing in Cambridge is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, with slate roofs, lead valleys and chimney stacks that take a beating in our wet winters. The repairs we get called out to most are slipped slates, cracked tiles, leaking lead flashing around chimneys, blocked or split valleys, and water getting in where an old extension meets the main roof. We also patch up storm damage after the high winds that sweep across the Fens.
Roofing materials and how long they last
Knowing what is on your roof helps you decide whether to repair or replace. As a rough guide:
| Material | Typical lifespan |
|---|---|
| Natural slate | 80 to 100+ years |
| Clay tile | 60+ years |
| Concrete tile | 40 to 60 years |
| Lead flashing | up to 100 years |
| Built-up felt | 15 to 20 years |
If your roof is near the end of that range and you are paying for repair after repair, a re-roof is usually the more sensible spend. We will tell you straight which one we would do.
Building regulations and repairs
Most like-for-like repairs do not need building control. If a repair grows into replacing more than a quarter of a roof slope, current rules mean you usually have to bring the insulation up to standard under Part L of the Building Regulations. You can read the government guidance on Approved Document L. Many Cambridge streets sit in conservation areas too, so we always match original materials where that matters.
What a roof repair costs in Cambridge
Costs vary with access, height and what has actually failed, so we never quote blind. A single slipped tile is a small job. Re-bedding a chimney or renewing a lead valley costs more because of the work involved and the scaffold. Every quote we give is fixed and in writing, with no surprises once we are up there.
"Nine times out of ten a leak comes down to failed flashing or a slipped tile, not the whole roof. We find the actual cause first, then fix it, rather than talking you into a re-roof you do not need," says the lead roofer at Alpha Roofing.

Trusted across Cambridge
Spotted a leak before the storms hit, called Alpha and they were round the next morning. Tidy, friendly, and a fair price. Wouldn't use anyone else.
Full re-roof on our 1930s semi. The team explained everything, stuck to the quote, and left the garden cleaner than they found it. Genuinely lovely lads.
Had VELUX windows fitted in the loft conversion. Faultless work, no mess, and they sorted everything themselves. Highly recommend to anyone in Cambridge.

Frequently asked questions
How quickly can you repair my roof in Cambridge?
For active leaks and storm damage we aim to get to you the same or next day to make the roof safe, then sort the full repair. Call 01223 902 205 and we will tell you honestly when we can be there.
How much does a roof repair cost?
It depends on the fault and the access. A slipped tile is a small job; re-bedding a chimney or renewing a lead valley costs more because of the scaffold and labour. We give a free, fixed quote in writing before any work starts.
Should I repair or replace my roof?
If the roof is sound and the problem is local, a repair is the right call. If the covering is past its lifespan and you keep paying for fixes, a re-roof works out cheaper over time. We will give you our honest view.
Do you carry out emergency roof repairs?
Yes. If water is coming through a ceiling, ring us straight away on 01223 902 205. We will make it watertight first and arrange the permanent repair afterwards.
