Working On Conwy Roofs
Conwy is a short run east along the A55 from our Anglesey base, and it is a regular part of our week. We cover the walled town itself, Deganwy, Llandudno Junction, Conwy Morfa and up the valley towards Tal-y-Cafn and Betws-y-Coed.
It is a demanding place to roof. Inside the walls the properties are old, tightly packed and often listed or in a conservation area, with narrow access, shared party walls and roofs you cannot simply lift a lorry-load of scaffold onto. Outside the walls there is Victorian and Edwardian housing along the estuary, post-war estates around the Junction, and modern housing at Deganwy that has now reached the age where the flat-roofed elements start letting go.
The buildings that make Conwy worth visiting are the same ones that need careful roofing: thick Welsh slate, stone walls, chimney stacks with complicated lead detailing, and very little tolerance for a bodge that looks wrong from the street.
Response Times To Conwy
Conwy is a straightforward A55 run for us, so free surveys here are normally within days. If you have water coming into the property tell us when you call and we will treat it accordingly.
Emergency and storm-damage call-out covers Conwy 24 hours a day, seven days a week, typically £150 to £250 depending on the time of day and location, agreed before we set off.
For the smaller jobs inside the town walls, our own scaffold towers mean we can often work without organising full scaffolding, which matters on streets where there is nowhere to put it.

07538 586813Conwy Property Types
Listed and conservation-area buildings
Old stone properties inside the walls where the covering has to be right: reclaimed Welsh slate, dressed lead, correct mortar mixes and nothing that looks modern from the pavement.
Victorian terraces and estuary villas
Long slate runs, shared valleys and tall stacks. Nail sickness and failed flashings account for most of what we are called to.
Post-war housing around Llandudno Junction
Concrete interlocking tiles with mortar-bedded ridges and verges that are now well past their intended life.
Modern Deganwy housing and extensions
Newer roofs where the failures are usually at the details: flat-roofed dormers, balconies, and flashings where an extension meets the main roof.

Why Choose Us In Conwy
Proven on listed buildings
We have worked on multiple listed buildings in Betws-y-Coed, and William's own listed home in Llangefni was refurbished by the team. Old buildings get the right materials, not the convenient ones.
Reclaimed Welsh slate as standard
On a Conwy roof, matching the existing slate is the whole job. Reclaimed Welsh slate is a specialty, so repairs disappear into the roof.
Free survey and written findings
Photographs, an explanation of what has failed and why, and a fixed-price quote back the same day or the next.
Tidy work on tight streets
Reviews mention it repeatedly: no mess left, considerate workers, and the site cleared properly. On a Conwy street that is not a small thing.
Roofing Problems Particular To Conwy
Roofs fail differently in different places. These are the conditions that decide how a roof in Conwy wears out, and what a repair here has to be built to survive.
Book the free surveyEstuary wind and driven rain
Wind funnels up the Conwy estuary and hits the town side-on. Driven rain gets under the slate laps on the exposed elevation of buildings that are perfectly dry on the sheltered side.
Building age and original construction
Many roofs here predate underfelt entirely and were built with hand-sorted slate on riven battens. Once nails corrode, whole courses become unreliable at the same time.
Access and infrastructure
Narrow streets, restricted parking and neighbouring properties within touching distance mean access has to be planned. Firms that will not deal with it either refuse the job or rush it.
Chimney stacks and complex leadwork
Tall stacks in exposed positions with old cement fillets instead of proper lead. Fillets crack, water runs down the stack into the roof space, and the stain appears nowhere near the cause.

Conwy Roofing Questions
The questions we are asked most by customers in Conwy: coverage, timing, cost and what happens out of hours.
Ask us directly on 07538 586813Do you cover Conwy?
Yes: Conwy town, Deganwy, Llandudno Junction, Conwy Morfa and up the valley. It is a regular run for us from our Anglesey base along the A55.
How quickly can you get to Conwy?
Free surveys are usually within a few days. Storm damage and active leaks are covered by the 24/7 emergency call-out service, and we will give you a realistic time when you ring.
Do you work on listed buildings in Conwy?
Yes. We have worked on multiple listed buildings in Betws-y-Coed and William's own listed home in Llangefni has been fully refurbished by the team. Reclaimed Welsh slate is a specialty.
What does roofing cost in Conwy?
The survey and quote cost nothing, and the quote is a fixed price for the work described rather than a day rate. Cost depends on the roof, the access and the materials, all of which we set out in writing before you commit.
Can you work on a narrow street with restricted access?
Usually, yes. We carry our own scaffold towers for smaller jobs, and for larger work access is planned and priced into the fixed quote rather than added later.
Is emergency roofing available in Conwy at night?
Yes, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Emergency call-outs are typically £150 to £250 depending on the time of day and your location.
Can you match the slate on an old Conwy roof?
In most cases. These roofs were built in Welsh slate and we work in reclaimed Welsh slate regularly, so a repair blends into the existing roof rather than standing out.
Do you replace lead flashings and chimney work?
Yes: all lead work, including flashings, valleys and chimney detailing. Cracked cement fillets are one of the most common causes of leaks on old Conwy stacks and dressed lead is the proper fix.
What guarantee do I get?
All work carries a workmanship guarantee. New roofs are guaranteed for 25 years, and flat roof warranties depend on the manufacturer system used and are passed on to you.
