Roofing in Dawlish
Dawlish grew up as a Regency and Victorian seaside town, so the streets around the Lawn and the seafront are full of older terraces with slate roofs, tall chimneys and plenty of lead. Further up the hill and out towards Dawlish Warren it's bungalows, semis and newer estates with tiled roofs. We re-roof both, matching slate and lead details on the older houses. See how a re-roof works.
Living with the sea
Anyone who's watched waves come over the sea wall knows the weather here is different. Salt spray and wind-driven rain work their way under loose slates, lift flashings and corrode ordinary fixings. We build coastal roofs with that in mind: good laps, proper lead, and fixings that suit the exposure.
Velux windows in Dawlish
We fit new and replacement Velux roof windows into slate, tile and flat roofs around Dawlish, with the right flashing kit so they stay watertight in a south-easterly. See Velux windows.
Fascias and gutters in Dawlish
Painted timber fascias don't last long this close to the sea. We replace them with uPVC fascias, soffits and gutters, and check the roof edge while the old boards are off. See fascias and gutters.
Single ply, EPDM, slate and lead
For flat roofs see single ply and EPDM flat roofing in Dawlish. For slipped slates, lead and chimneys see roof repairs in Dawlish.
Roofers in Dawlish: common questions
Do you cover Dawlish Warren and Holcombe?
Yes, along with Cockwood, Starcross, Teignmouth and Shaldon.
How far away are you?
We're in Chudleigh, about ten miles from Dawlish. For a leak, call and we'll tell you honestly how soon we can get there.
Have you worked in Dawlish before?
Yes. You can read a Dawlish customer's review of a flat roof replacement on this page and on our testimonials page.
Does the sea air affect my roof?
It does. Salt and wind wear fixings, flashings and gutters faster than inland. We use materials and fixings suited to coastal roofs.
How much does a roofer cost in Dawlish?
It depends on the job, the access and any scaffolding. We give a free, no-obligation written quote, and our customers tell us it's great value for money.

What our customers say
“Undertook work as advised late 2023/early 2024 and right from the start Chris was proactive in keeping me up to speed with progress and requesting instruction when the inevitable snag was encountered. Site was left clean and tidy despite it being a fairly messy job! It's been 6 months now and no sign of any further leaks from the roof so I'm very happy with the outcome.”
“They came, they saw, they conquered. And they cleared up after themselves. The work was done speedily without any hassles.”
“Very honest, pro-active and accommodating. Chris and his team communicated throughout the project and got on with the job. Work was carried out professionally, on time and for the quoted price. Would hire again.”
