Local knowledge
Roofing for North East homes
Terraces & Tyneside flats
Older streets in North Shields, Tynemouth, Heaton and Jesmond are full of slate roofs, shared roofs and bonding gutters that need careful, matching repairs.
Coastal homes
In Tynemouth, Cullercoats, Whitley Bay and Seaton Sluice, wind and salty air wear out mortar ridges, verges and flashings faster than inland.
Semis & newer estates
Interwar and post-war semis in Preston, Monkseaton and Wallsend often have concrete tiles and bay window roofs reaching the end of their life.
Coverage FAQs
Questions about where we work
Not sure if we cover your street? Call 07908 901788 and ask.
Do you cover the whole of North Tyneside?
Yes. As well as North Shields we work across North Tyneside, including Tynemouth, Cullercoats, Whitley Bay, Monkseaton, Preston, Wallsend, Howdon, Shiremoor, Backworth, Earsdon, Killingworth, Longbenton and Forest Hall.
My area is not on the list. Can you still help?
Possibly. The list shows where we work most often rather than a strict boundary, so call 07908 901788 or request a callback with your postcode and we will let you know.
Who pays for roof repairs on a Tyneside flat?
In a Tyneside flat the upper and lower flats usually share one roof, and who is responsible for repairs is set out in each flat's lease or title deeds. It is worth checking your paperwork and speaking to the other owner early. We are happy to quote so you both know what the work involves.
Why do coastal roofs need more maintenance?
Homes near the seafront in Tynemouth, Cullercoats, Whitley Bay and Seaton Sluice take the full force of wind-driven rain and salty air off the North Sea. That speeds up the wear on mortar ridges, verges, fixings and flashings, so regular checks help catch small problems before they become leaks.
