Rainham Roofers On Your Doorstep
Rainham runs straight into Gillingham, which is where we are based. There is no travel charge buried in the quote and no waiting until somebody is passing. If you ring about a leak we can usually be looking at it the same day.
Most of Rainham is post-war rather than Victorian. Park Wood went up in the sixties and seventies, Rainham Mark and Wigmore either side of that, with older terraces along the main road and out towards Lower Rainham. That means a lot of concrete interlocking tile and dry-fixed detailing, which fails in its own particular ways - and a lot of roofs of a similar age reaching the end at roughly the same time.
Repairs, full re-roofs, flat roofs on extensions and garages, chimneys, lead and roofline work. All of it is routine, and if a repair is the honest answer that is what we will quote for.

We know what these roofs do
A sixties or seventies estate roof fails differently from a Victorian one. Knowing which failure you are looking at saves taking the whole roof off to find out.
Roofing Work We Do In Rainham
Pitched and flat roof work on homes across Rainham and the estates around it:
- Roof repairs - slipped and cracked tiles, failed flashings, leaks and storm damage.
- Full re-roofs - stripped, checked underneath, re-battened, felted and re-covered.
- Flat roofing - EPDM, fibreglass and felt on extensions, dormers, porches and garages.
- Ridge and verge work - loose ridge tiles re-bedded or switched to a dry-fix system, which the exposed estate roofs here need more often than most.
- Chimney repairs - repointing, flaunching, lead flashing and capping.
- Guttering, fascias and soffits - cleared, repaired or replaced.
On a roof of this age the first thing to go is rarely the tile itself. It is the nails and the mortar holding everything in place, which is why a roof can look sound from the pavement and still be shedding tiles.
Common questions
Rainham Roofing Questions We Get Asked
All of it - Rainham itself, Park Wood, Rainham Mark, Lower Rainham, Macklands, Wigmore and Twydall on the Gillingham side. If you are not sure, ring and ask.
Usually the same day for anything urgent. Rainham runs straight into Gillingham where we are based, so it is a short run rather than a trip.
The work, yes. The approach, no. Estate roofs of that age tend to be concrete interlocking tile with mortar-bedded ridges, and what usually fails first is the bedding and the nails rather than the tiles. We will tell you which you have got.
Always, and itemised. We do not quote a roof over the phone, because nobody can see a roof over the phone.
Depends on the work and the access. A small repair often does not. A re-roof always does. We tell you at the quote stage and it is inside the price, not added later.
Yes. We quote in a way a landlord, a managing agent or a group of leaseholders can all work from, and we are used to arranging access around a tenant.
