Roof repairs and re-roofs in Portsmouth

Across Portsmouth the work is mostly on dense Victorian and Edwardian terraces, post-war rebuilding across the city and flat-roofed extensions behind, which means repairs, re-roofs, flat roofs, leadwork, chimneys and guttering in roughly that order. Portsmouth is built tight on Portsea Island, where terraces run in long unbroken pitches and salt-laden wind off the Solent finds a loose ridge, slate or flashing long before you do. Every job starts with a proper look at the roof rather than a price guessed off a photograph.
