Free, no-obligation. Local team, no call-out fee.
Roof Replacement in Hinckley is a regular part of our workload. Hinckley has a housing stock characterised by Victorian town centre terraces in Stockwell Head, 1930s–50s semis on Coventry Road, post-war Burbage estates — exposed to prevailing westerlies. Full re-roofs in Hinckley must account for the elevated wind exposure. Mechanically fixed tiles on west-facing slopes are recommended over traditional mortar-only bedding for hip and ridge details.
We cover all of Hinckley and the LE10 postcode area. Free quotes, no call-out fee, 10-year workmanship guarantee on all work.
3-bed semi £4,000–£8,000, detached £7,000–£15,000 depending on materials and size

Material specification depends on the property era and exposure. Full re-roofs in Hinckley must account for the elevated wind exposure. Mechanically fixed tiles on west-facing slopes are recommended over traditional mortar-only bedding for hip and ridge details.

A 3-bed semi in Hinckley typically costs £4,000-£8,000. Larger detached properties run £7,000-£15,000 depending on size and materials. Natural slate adds 30-40% to material costs.
Our written quotes specify: the tile or slate product by name, underlay specification, batten type, how ridges and hips will be finished, scaffolding arrangement, waste disposal, and the workmanship guarantee period. If a quote doesn't specify these details, ask for them in writing before accepting.
We source matching tiles wherever possible. On older properties with weathered original tiles, exact matching is rarely achievable — we carry sample tiles to find the closest available modern equivalent and discuss the match with you before ordering.
Yes. All our quotations are provided in writing before any work starts. The quote specifies the scope of work, materials, access method and the workmanship guarantee. We never begin work without written acceptance.
Hinckley sits on elevated ground south-west of Leicester with no natural shelter from prevailing westerly and south-westerly weather. Wind-driven rain on west-facing elevations is significantly more severe than in the sheltered Soar Valley suburbs of Leicester city.
Victorian town centre terraces in Stockwell Head and 1930s–50s semis on the Coventry Road and Burbage corridors form the primary housing stock. West-facing clay tile slopes on these properties experience more wind-driven rain penetration than equivalent Leicester city properties.
Hip tile failures on exposed south-west facing elevations are more frequent in Hinckley than anywhere else in our coverage area. Mechanical fixings on replaced hip tiles on exposed elevations are standard practice for us on Hinckley properties. We cover all of Hinckley and the surrounding area — the same team that surveys your roof carries out the work, with no subcontractors and no third parties.
Full re-roof starts with a detailed survey covering tile/slate specification, structural condition, drainage and access requirements. Written itemised quote before any decision. Conservation area requirements identified and advised on as part of the survey.
Scaffold erection and strip on day one. Structural inspection — any issues reported before proceeding. New breathable membrane and treated battens, tile laying from eaves to ridge, ridge and hip finishing, valley and flashing installation, site clear. Temporary weatherproofing fitted at the end of each day — no open roof left overnight.

Repair work: minimum 2-year guarantee. Lead work, ridge and structural repairs: 5-year guarantee. Full re-roofing: 10-year guarantee.

We inspect all visible structural timber on the first day of strip. Any problems found — rotten rafters, failed wall plates, damaged purlins — are reported immediately with a written price for repair before we proceed. We never carry out structural repairs without your approval and a written cost. Structural repairs on a standard Leicester semi typically add £200–£800 to a re-roof when required.
Every job we carry out starts with a free on-site survey and a written itemised quote. The quote specifies the scope of work, materials by name, access method and guarantee period. No work starts without your written acceptance. We never add costs on site without discussing them with you first and getting your agreement. Our quotes are fixed-price — the figure you accept is the figure you pay unless you request additional work.
All our roofing work carries a written workmanship guarantee — 2 years on minor repairs, 5 years on lead work and structural repairs, 10 years on full re-roofing. We are registered with the National Federation of Roofing Contractors (NFRC), carry £5m public liability insurance, and have been working across Leicester and Leicestershire since 2003. If anything we have carried out develops a problem within the guarantee period, we return and put it right at no charge. Our NFRC registration and insurance certificate are provided with every written quote on request.
A written re-roof quote on a Leicester property should account for five cost elements: materials (tile/slate, underlay, battens, ridge, hip, lead/GRP details); scaffold hire; labour for strip and relay; waste disposal; and any structural timber repair required. Understanding the split between these elements helps you assess whether a quote is complete or is hiding costs that will appear during the job.
| Cost Element | Typical % of Total | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Materials | 30–40% | Varies significantly by tile type |
| Scaffold | 15–20% | Fixed cost regardless of tile spec |
| Labour | 35–45% | Strip, underlay, batten, tile, ridge |
| Waste disposal | 5–10% | Skip hire or grab lorry |
A quote significantly below market rate on a fixed-cost job like scaffold hire is absorbing that cost somewhere in the specification or the guarantee period. Our quotes itemise every element — you know exactly what you are paying for before you accept.
