Roofers in Newmarket, CB8

A roofer in Newmarket covering the Suffolk villages too

Newmarket is about 55 minutes from Wisbech, the furthest town on our regular patch, and our roofers cover it along with the villages around it: Exning, Burwell, Kennett, Moulton, Dullingham, Cheveley and Fordham.

What Newmarket property needs

The town centre and older streets carry a mix of Victorian terraces and older brick property with slate or clay tile roofs, needing careful matching and leadwork rather than a quick patch, while the villages further out bring cottages and post-war housing with their own mix of pantile and concrete tile roofs. Chimneys on older property here often need repointing before the mortar fails completely and lets damp in around the stack.

Free inspection, written price

• Free roof inspection worth £199, no obligation
• Photographs of exactly what we find
• A written fixed price before work starts
• Ten year written workmanship guarantee
• £1,000,000 public liability insurance

A proper inspection tells us whether a chimney needs repointing, a section of tile needs matching, or the roof is sound and something else is causing the problem, before anything is agreed in writing.

What a roof inspection ahead of a sale or survey involves

Older Newmarket property often needs a proper roof inspection ahead of a house sale or a buildings survey, checking ridge tiles, valleys, chimney flashing and any flat sections and putting the findings in writing with photographs. That written report is useful whether you're the buyer, the seller, or simply want to know what state the roof is actually in before it becomes a problem.

Covering Newmarket and the villages around it

Exning, Burwell, Kennett, Moulton, Dullingham, Cheveley and Fordham are all worked regularly. Postcode CB8 is covered from Wisbech, about 55 minutes away, and while it's the longest drive we do, a Newmarket job gets the same priority as one closer to home.

Slate matching, chimneys and guttering

Newmarket jobs regularly include slate and tiled roofing on the town's older streets, chimney repointing on stacks that have stood for decades, roof repairs after storm damage, and gutter cleaning on the mature, tree-lined roads that make up a lot of the older parts of town.

Why Newmarket customers call Swift

Because the guarantee and insurance are identical wherever the job is, and Luke answers the phone himself rather than passing calls through a script. The reviews, 4.9 on Google, 10 out of 10 on Checkatrade, 132 in total, are real and checkable before you book anything.

What happens once you book

We come out at a time that suits you and get up on the roof properly, which matters on the older brick property common across Newmarket and its villages. Anything worth showing you is photographed there and then, and the written price reflects exactly what we found. Paths and gardens are protected with sheets before work starts, and the site is left tidy at the end of each working day.

The furthest town on our patch, worked properly anyway

Newmarket is the longest regular drive we do, and it would be easy to treat it as a lower priority because of that. We don't. The same free inspection, the same written price and the same ten year guarantee apply here as they would five minutes from Wisbech, and the villages around Newmarket, Exning, Burwell, Kennett and the rest, get exactly the same attention as the town itself.

Older chimneys need watching more than most

A stack that's stood for decades without attention is one of the most common sources of a hidden leak, since mortar fails gradually and lets damp track down inside a chimney breast long before it shows up as a stain on a ceiling. Checking chimneys properly during a free inspection catches this kind of problem well before it becomes an expensive one.

Insurance and guarantee, even on the longest drive

The £1,000,000 public liability insurance and the ten year written workmanship guarantee apply in Newmarket exactly as they would five minutes from Wisbech. Distance changes the drive, not the standard.
