roofing services in Shrewsbury

Shrewsbury's roofscape includes timber-framed buildings from the 15th and 16th centuries, Georgian and Regency property, and later homes beyond the historic core. A full re-roof here can involve natural slate, handmade clay tiles, leadwork and traditional lines at hips, valleys and verges. These are not cosmetic choices. They shape the way the roof sheds water and how it sits among the building's visible features. C Kearney Roofing provides full strip and re-tile work, slate and clay roof replacements, alongside traditional roofing and bespoke lead work. Because Shrewsbury is the furthest town in this service area from Burntwood, feasibility and scheduling are discussed plainly at the enquiry stage. If the project is a suitable fit, the written scope can then focus on the building rather than making vague claims of being just around the corner.

SERVICING ALL AREAS OF SHREWSBURY

Enquiries are welcomed from Bayston Hill, Frankwell and Copthorne, alongside the wider Shrewsbury area below. As travel from Burntwood is more substantial, include the property location and project outline early so C Kearney Roofing can confirm whether a survey and programme are practical.

Full strip a& retile

A full strip and re-tile is the starting point for homeowners planning a wholly renewed roof rather than isolated work. In Shrewsbury, the job may need to accommodate an old roof shape, a visible historic elevation or a more recent property with straightforward access. The proposal can describe the strip, roof layers, new covering and edge details, so the sequence is clear before materials are brought to site.

clay roofing

Handmade-style clay tiles can be an important consideration on older Shrewsbury properties where the roof remains a prominent part of the townscape. Tile size, colour and profile should be considered with the building, while hips, valleys and verges need a coherent traditional treatment. C Kearney Roofing can discuss a clay replacement roof as a complete system, including its underlay and battens beneath the covering.

Slate roofing

Natural slate is often associated with historic and Georgian roof forms, but a sound specification still depends on the individual slope. Slate dimensions, headlap, fixing method and the details at chimneys and abutments all need consideration. For a Shrewsbury roof, a survey can establish the practical scope and the level of traditional detailing required before a written quote is prepared.

Concrete tiles may suit later Shrewsbury homes where the roof design and surrounding setting call for that kind of covering. A replacement can include renewal of the roof layers and planned treatment of ridges, verges and eaves. The right approach is not to imitate a heritage roof where it does not belong, but to specify the covering and details honestly for the building in front of you.

Roofing for New Build / extensions

New construction in Shrewsbury can still need to sit comfortably alongside established property. On a project of this type, the team can coordinate roofing with homeowners, architects and builders, considering pitch, drainage and the point where new work joins the existing structure. The distance from Burntwood is addressed before work is agreed, allowing the project team to make a realistic scheduling decision.

Flat roofing
in Shrewsbury

A flat roof on a rear addition, garage or dormer needs an accurate drainage plan. Within its flat roof replacement offering, C Kearney Roofing deals with water pooling and drainage. The survey can look at the deck area, outlets, parapets, upstands and rooflight openings, then explain the proposed arrangement for materials such as torch-on felt, GRP or EPDM where suitable.

bespoke lead work roofing

bespoke lead work

Shrewsbury's older buildings can make leadwork a visible part of the roof rather than a hidden junction. Lead valleys, soakers and flashings need to be formed to suit their position and allow for movement. Bespoke lead work is available for existing leadwork or new lead roofs. Restoration of historical lead features can be considered where the planned job calls for carefully considered traditional detailing.

how we work

Why Shrewsbury homeowners choose
C Kearney Roofing?

As local experts, we have an in-depth understanding of Shrewsbury’s unique architectural styles and weather conditions, allowing us to tailor our services to your specific needs. Our team consists of fully licensed and insured professionals who use only the highest-quality materials to ensure long-lasting results.

  • A heritage-aware starting point. The town's timber-framed, Georgian and Regency buildings make material and junction choices highly visible. Natural slate, clay, leadwork, valleys and hips can be discussed in relation to the specific roof before material choices are made.
  • Full renewal is the focus. We offer full strip and re-tile work alongside clay, slate and concrete roof replacements. So we can help with a new roof or a complete re-roof, rather than a small isolated task.
  • Traditional details have a place in the scope. Lead soakers, flashings, ridges and verges should not be left as assumptions on older buildings. The survey and written quote can identify the important junctions for the particular project. These details affect the finish and water run-off.

I was given Craig’s (C Kearney Roofing) contact number by Dreadnought Tiles as I wanted specific tiles to be used on my new roof. I had a couple of people come and see me to have a look and give me a quote, but no one seemed interested. I had a totally different experience with Craig, he was very pleasant and knowledgeable. The choice of tile I chose wasn’t the cheapest but it has transformed the look of my house! I am so pleased. Craig’s team of workers were excellent, hardworking and trustworthy. Communication was excellent and I felt very comfortable that my house was secure at all times. I would definitely recommend Craig to anyone that needs a new roof or repair work. Fantastic job thank you!

Having spent many wasted weeks looking for a reliable roofer and being let down or lied to I found Craig on Google and decided to give him a try to quote.
He arrived promptly at the arranged time and after some street level review he got the ladders and inspected properly finding more issues outside of our original thoughts. He then took the time to explain and show pictures of his findings and reason that a part repair was not the way to go.
Having received a quotation detailing all works and the materials he would use and decided to contract C Kearney roofing to undertake a full strip and re-tile plus repair chimneys and bay window roof.
As the date for start loomed closer Craig supplied a full schedule of works which he maintained fully to the end.
His dedicated team were professional, courteous and tidy all through and ensured the site was left clean every day. Inevitably issues were found along the way as would be expected removing a 60 year old roof but Craig and the team tackled these and moved on. Each day Craig either phoned or sent photos of progress and kept us fully up to date.

We are so glad we chose C Kearney Roofing for the job and have no reservations about using them again to replace bay cladding and canopy roof at a future time.

I had several Roofing companies come & quote me for work on my roof recently. All bar one “ Kearney Roofing LTD said that the original tiles were ok to reuse & they would only need to replace the felt & batons. All from assessing the job at street level. Craig at Kearney Roofing LTD took the time not only to go up on the roof but he stripped a section of the tiles from the roof to make an informed assessment of what was needed for the job. Craig also showed me that the tiles themselves had become porous & out lived their usefulness. I was given a schedule of when the scaffolding, materials & skips would arrive. Which all arrived on time without any problems. The workmanship of the roofing team lead by Craig was excellent & attention to detail was obvious. I was invited up to roof level to inspect work at various stages of the installation & I could see that the team took a pride in their work. I would not hesitate to recommend Kearney Roofing LTD to anyone wishing to have a new roof installed by such a professional company.

    Shrewsbury Roofing FAQs

    The duration of a roof replacement depends on the size and complexity of the project, but on average, it takes between 3 to 7 days to complete. Weather conditions and material availability can also affect the timeline.

    Suitable weather windows matter more than a fixed calendar month. A planned programme should allow for the roof size, scaffold, material deliveries and the possibility of changing conditions. Discuss your preferred dates early, but keep enough flexibility for the work to be carried out safely and for exposed roof areas to be managed properly during the process.

    Start with the location, roof type and the work you are considering. If the project is suitable to progress, a survey can assess access, materials, roof form and significant junctions. C Kearney Roofing then provides a free no-obligation written quote, allowing you to review the proposed scope before deciding whether to proceed.

    C Kearney Roofing offers workmanship guarantee options, with the applicable terms explained as part of the agreed work. Keep the written quote and guarantee information with the project documents. If you need to raise a concern about workmanship, contact the company with the property details, project information and a clear description so the matter can be reviewed.

    Absolutely. We are well-versed in Shrewsbury’s local building regulations and ensure all our work complies with the latest standards and requirements.
