Roofing Services in Hemel Hempstead
Roof repairs, new roofs and roof replacement for homeowners in Hemel Hempstead — from a single slipped tile to a complete re-roof.
Elgar Roof covers the whole of Hemel Hempstead — the new-town neighbourhoods from Adeyfield and Bennetts End to Warners End and Grove Hill, the Victorian Old Town along the High Street, and out to Boxmoor, Leverstock Green and the villages.
A new town at re-roofing age
Hemel's defining stock was built fast in the 1950s and 60s, and those neighbourhoods were roofed together — which means they age together. The concrete tiles of that era are now past their design life across much of the town: surfaces gone porous, edges spalling, underfelt brittle enough to crumble in your hand. Whole streets face the same decision at the same time, and it deserves a straight answer per house, not a street-wide sales pitch — some roofs have a decade of honest service left, others are consuming money in repeat repairs. Our repair-or-replace guide shows exactly how we tell the difference. The Old Town and Boxmoor add Victorian slate and clay roofs with the usual second-century needs: flashings, chimneys, fixings.
What we do in Hemel
Roof repairs, full roof replacement, flat roofing — the town has plenty of flat-roofed garages and links from its new-town layout — chimneys and leadwork, and fascias, soffits and guttering.
