Recent Work
Profiled Sheet Garage Roof Replacement (Newport)
We replaced the roof covering on this detached garage in Newport with grey profiled roofing sheets. The straight ribs run along the length of the roof, creating a consistent finish with matching trim across the front edge.
The garage sits between established trees and hedging, with a narrow space beside the building. The completed roof provides a practical covering while retaining the garage’s existing brick appearance.
Visible construction details: Ribbed roofing sheets, matching front edge trim and a shallow-pitched garage roof.
Flat Garage Roof Repair (Caerphilly)
We completed roof repair work on this detached brick garage in Caerphilly. The finished roof has a smooth grey covering with matching perimeter trims, giving the building a neat finish above the garage entrance and along the side walls.
On a low-pitched garage roof, the edges and drainage details are important parts of keeping rainwater outside. The photograph shows the completed surface and its junctions with the roof perimeter.

Project to Replace Carport Roof (Cardiff)
We replaced the roof covering on this carport beside a brick property in Cardiff. Dark corrugated sheets form the finished surface, with visible rows of fixings securing the covering.
The corrugations run down the roof slope towards the outer edge. Where a carport meets the house, the junction with the wall is an important part of the installation, alongside sheet overlaps and secure fixing positions.
Visible construction details: Dark corrugated roofing sheets, visible sheet fixings and a sloping carport roof adjoining the property.
Pitched Garage Roof Replacement (Cwmbran)
This garage roof replacement in Cwmbran features a dark covering laid in regular horizontal courses. The finish follows the existing pitched roof, with ridge detailing at the top and a neatly defined edge along the brick gable.
The completed roof gives the older brick building a consistent appearance. Guttering and a downpipe are visible along the lower roof edge to carry rainwater away from the building.
Visible construction details: Dark tile-effect roof covering, ridge detailing, gable-edge finish, guttering and a downpipe.
Garage Roof Repair vs Replacement
Making the decision to repair or replace your garage roof can be a tough one, but there are several things to consider to help you decide before paying for a costly and potentially short-lived repair:
- The age of your roof.
If it is past its warranty or expected life span, it might be worth considering a replacement. As roofing materials age, they become weaker and are no longer as resilient to the weather as they once were. This can result in regular, costly repairs. - The frequency of the repairs.
If you find that you’re having to repair your roof frequently, then it’s probably time to think about a garage roof replacement. Roofing materials are not able to last forever and this is especially true of the typical materials used on traditional flat roof garages. - The extent of the repairs.
If the work planned is extensive, it may well be worth thinking about investing in a garage roof replacement because in a lot of cases, it can be more economical to replace the roof than pay for extensive repairs.
Pitched vs Flat Garage Roof Replacement and Repairs
By their design, flat roofs are susceptible to springing leaks because of the fact that rain water can settle on top if the drainage capability is inadequate. Badly installed flashings may also cause problems and regular maintenance and repairing it is essential, especially if the roof is exposed to intense sunlight or extreme cold. Also, needless to say, although it's tempting, walking on a flat garage roof should be avoided to prevent punctures from shoes, as this may result in leaks. Rather pay now for repairs than risk needing a full replacement.
There’s a reason why many people prefer a pitched roof for their garage, and the main one is their longevity. On the whole, a pitched roof will likely outlive any flat roof contender, thanks to the higher quality materials used in their construction. A pitched garage roof also needs less maintenance because of the resilient material they're made from and because the sloping sides help to drain away rainwater, avoiding any destructive pooling. However to initially install a pitched garage roof will be more expensive, but fewer repair jobs anticipated in future.
The labour, materials, and overall cost of repair work will ultimately be determined by the slope of your roof. So for a sloped, shingled garage roof, repairs are likely to take longer and be more expensive. But if you have a flat roof and need it repairing, it can range from simple to complex. However, patching a flat roof is simple enough, and this is the most common job.
