Roofing Services in Luton
Roof repairs, new roofs and roof replacement for homeowners in Luton — from a single slipped tile to a complete re-roof.
Elgar Roof covers all of Luton — High Town and Bury Park's Victorian terraces, the interwar avenues of Stopsley, Leagrave and Limbury, and the post-war estates at Marsh Farm and Farley Hill. Repairs, replacements, flat roofs, chimneys and roofline.
Luton's housing, from the ridge down
The hat trade built Luton's Victorian core, and its terraces carry the classic combination: Welsh slate, brick chimneys every few metres, and back additions with lean-to or flat roofs. A century-plus on, the slate fixings are the weak point, the chimneys take the worst of the weather, and the back-addition roofs have often been patched more times than anyone can count — usually the first thing we're asked to sort. The interwar ring is hipped clay and concrete tile with mortar ridges due attention, and the sixties estates are approaching the end of their original coverings.
