Roofing in Somerton, from a local roofer

Somerton (TA11) is around 8 miles from our base near Glastonbury.

Somerton is around eight miles south of our base near Glastonbury, past Street on the B3151. We cover the town and the surrounding TA11 villages.

Once the ancient capital of Somerset, Somerton has a historic centre built largely from local blue lias stone. Many homes have clay or stone tile roofs, stone chimney stacks and traditional details that need sympathetic repair.

Away from the centre there are post-war and modern estates, where the work tends to be tile repairs, re-roofs, guttering and flat roofs.

Somerton's historic centre means many of the roofs we work on need a light touch. Repairs to stone chimneys, clay tile roofs and lead details have to match what's already there, using mortars and materials that suit the age of the building. On newer homes around the town, the work is more often slipped tiles, refelting, flat roofs and replacing roofline. Whichever applies to your home, you'll get a free inspection, photos of what Travis finds and a fixed price before any work starts. As Somerton is close to our base via Street, follow-up visits are straightforward. We also cover nearby villages, including Langport, Keinton Mandeville, Charlton Adam and Kingsdon.

Local roof problems

Common roof problems in Somerton

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 Somerton.

Lime mortars on stone

Blue lias stone needs breathable lime mortars. Cement repairs trap moisture.

Chimney flashings

Old lead or mortar flashings on stone stacks often fail and cause leaks.

Clay tile wear

Very old clay tiles can become porous and break up.

Rain off the Levels

Open ground to the north and west brings wind-driven rain.

Conservation considerations

Homes in the historic centre may need like-for-like materials. Check with the council if you're unsure.

What to expect

Booking a roofer in Somerton

Hiring a roofer can feel like a gamble. Here's exactly how it works when you book TB Property Maintenance and Roofing in Somerton, from the first phone call to the final clean-up.

01

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 Somerton property, between 8am–8pm.

02

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.

03

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.

04

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.

Alongside Somerton, we regularly work in Street, Glastonbury, Wells, Bridgwater and the other towns we cover: Shepton Mallet, Frome, Trowbridge, Cheddar, Weston-super-Mare. Wherever you are, the service is the same.
