Roofing in Frome,
from a local roofer
Frome (BA11) is around 20 miles from our base near Glastonbury.
Frome is around 20 miles east of our base near Glastonbury, and is part of our regular service area. We cover the town and the surrounding BA11 villages.
Frome has one of the largest collections of listed buildings in Somerset. Its steep streets are full of stone cottages, weavers' houses and Georgian and Victorian terraces. Many have clay or slate roofs, stone chimneys and old lead details that need careful repair.
A Frome-area customer in BA11 said Travis showed and explained everything that needed repairing on their roof, did the work to an excellent standard, and that they'd 100% recommend him.
Frome is a town where roofs are often as old as the houses beneath them, and many have been patched many times over the years. Our approach is to find the real cause of any leak or damp, rather than adding another layer of sealant. That might mean renewing a lead valley hidden behind a parapet, repointing a stone chimney with the right lime mortar, or re-fixing slates that have slipped as their old nails corrode. For newer homes on the edges of town, the work is more often gutters, flat roofs and ridge repairs. Whatever the job, you get a fixed price and photo evidence first. We also cover villages around Frome, including Beckington, Nunney and Rode.

When you contact us from Frome, you speak to Travis Biddle directly. He inspects the roof, explains what he finds with photos, prices the work fixed and carries it out himself, bringing in trusted labourers only on larger jobs. With 10 years in the trade and roofs completed across Glastonbury and the wider area, he will have dealt with your type of roof before.
“A very polite, helpful young man, who showed and explained everything that was required to be repaired on my roof. The work was done to an excellent standard. I would 100% recommend him.”
Common roof problems
in Frome
The age of the buildings, the local weather and the way homes were built all shape which faults turn up most. These are the ones we see most often in Frome.
Hidden valleys and parapets
Terraces with parapet walls hide lead gutters and valleys that can fail without anyone noticing.
Steep, tight access
Frome's narrow, steep streets make access planning important for any roof job.
Old lime-mortared stacks
Stone chimneys need suitable lime mortars. Hard cement repairs cause damage.
Slate nail sickness
Corroded fixings on older slate roofs let slates slip.
Conservation considerations
Listed and conservation-area homes may need matching materials. Check with the council if you're unsure.

Booking a roofer
in Frome
Hiring a roofer can feel like a gamble. Here's exactly how it works when you book TB Property Maintenance and Roofing in Frome, from the first phone call to the final clean-up.
Your first call
Call 07916 735568 or send the quote form. You'll speak to Travis, not an office. Tell him what you've noticed (a damp patch, a slipped tile, a sagging gutter) and, if you can, send a photo. He'll arrange a time to visit your Frome property, between 8am–8pm.
The inspection
For homeowners, the inspection is free. Travis checks the roof, chimney, gutters and, where he can get in, the loft. He photographs what he finds and walks you through it in plain English, so you understand the problem as clearly as he does. If you don't yet own the property, there is a charge for the inspection, which is confirmed before he visits.
Your fixed-price quote
You get one fixed price for the work, not a day rate that can creep up. Where there's more than one way to fix the problem, the options are explained honestly, including when a repair makes more sense than a replacement. There's no pressure to decide on the spot.
On the day
Travis turns up when he says he will, carries out the agreed work and keeps your property tidy throughout. If anything unexpected turns up once the roof is open, you're shown photo evidence before any extra work is discussed. When the job is finished, the area is cleared, gutters are checked and you get before-and-after photos, along with written confirmation of your guarantee.
