Our Roofing Work Across West Cornwall
The best way to judge a roofer is by the work they’ve actually done. This is our portfolio of real roofing projects from across West Cornwall: slate and tile roofs, specialist leadwork, flat roofs and chimneys, every one completed by Steve Biggs, an NVQ-qualified roofer and leadwork specialist, and finished to a professional standard backed by a 10-year workmanship guarantee.
Real Roofs, Real Customers
Everything on this page is genuine, no stock photography, nothing borrowed from a supplier’s catalogue. Each photo is a real job, on a real West Cornwall roof, completed by Steve. From a few replaced slates in Newlyn to a full re-roof in Penzance or new lead flashing around a Truro chimney, this is the work exactly as it was: on the tools, on the roof, and finished properly.
The projects below are grouped by the type of work, so you can find something close to your own roof, whether you’re after a heritage slate match, specialist leadwork, a modern flat roof or a chimney rebuild. New work is added as jobs complete across Penzance, Truro, Falmouth, St Ives and the rest of the county.
Slate & Tile Roofs
Natural slate, clay and concrete tile, new roofs, re-slates and repairs matched to the property, with heritage matches and reclaimed Cornish slate where the roof calls for it. These are the traditional roofs that suit West Cornwall’s housing stock, expertly fixed to last against the Atlantic weather. See more →
Leadwork
Lead flashing, valleys, chimney lead and box gutters, the most skilled detailing on any roof, and the craftsmanship that keeps it watertight for decades, by an NVQ-qualified leadwork specialist. Leadwork is the craft this business is named for. See more →
Flat Roofs
Fibreglass (GRP) and EPDM rubber flat roofs that far outlast old felt, on extensions, dormers, garages and commercial buildings, with the lead detailing done properly by a hot-works-insured specialist. See more →
Chimneys & Roofline
Chimney repairs, rebuilds and repointing, plus guttering, fascia and soffit work that protects the edge of the roof and keeps water away from your walls. The lead is diagnosed and put right at the same time. See more →
