Roofers in Falmouth

Falmouth's maritime setting makes for some of the most exposed roofs in Cornwall. With one of the world's deepest natural harbours on its doorstep, the town catches salt-laden winds straight off the water, working hard on the slate and lead of the steep Victorian terraces around Killigrew Street and the older properties down towards the Moor and Customs House Quay. Flat-roofed extensions and dormers, common on Falmouth's tightly packed townhouses, take a particular beating from wind-driven rain.

The town's large student population means a good share of the housing is rented, and landlords need roofs that stay sound and pass inspection without constant call-backs. Neighbouring Penryn shares the same older granite-and-slate character, with its own conservation streets and period stock. Whether it's a harbour-side family home, a hillside terrace or a let that needs reliable upkeep, these are the roofs Steve has built his career on: he knows precisely how Falmouth's salt and gales wear a roof, and exactly what it takes to keep one watertight for the long term.
