Trusted roofing specialists for Pympton

As an ancient Stannary town, Plympton has a fairly distinct character, and it’s quite different from the older, denser parts of Plymouth. Plympton contains some much older historic housing, particularly around the old town and areas such as Underwood, but a large part of modern Plympton was developed as Plymouth expanded during the post-war era.

Tamar Roofing & Building Services, located in Plymouth, offers expert roofing services throughout all PL postcodes, covering everything from the limestone townhouses in the old town to the rendered estates of Chaddlewood. They provide free inspections with no call-out fee.
Key takeaways
  • Specialists in period slate roofs and chimney repairs
  • Flat roof upgrades for post-war estates across Plympton
  • Conservation area and listed building experience
  • Free inspection and quote with no call-out fee
  • 25-year guarantee on all work

Roof issues in Plympton.

Ageing roof coverings

Much of Plympton's housing was built during the post-war expansion of the area, meaning many roofs are now several decades old and have reached the end of their serviceable life.

Roof leaks and failed waterproofing

Plympton has a wet, windy climate, exposing weaknesses in tiles, membranes, valleys, flashings and junctions. During bad weather, wind-driven rain can find its way through any of these weak points.

Slipped, cracked or broken tiles/slates

Age, weather exposure and deterioration of fixings can cause coverings to move or fail without showing signs of failure. This means a roof looks reasonable from the ground while hiding defects.

Storm and wind damage

Plympton's exposed South West location on the edge of Dartmoor means wind-driven rain and storms can accelerate existing roof defects, particularly around the eaves and verges.
