Having experienced a disaster with the house roof leaking, Charlie and his team from MCG Roofing provided extremely fast and effective repairs. Indeed, not only fixing my roof professionally they also repaired other broken tiles I was unaware of to prevent further issues. Thank you Charlie and you will always be my first port of call for any roofing requirements. Rob
Leadwork
Leadwork that keeps water where it belongs.
Lead flashing, valleys and chimney leadwork, installed and repaired to a proper standard.
The service
Small details, significant consequences.
Leadwork sits at the junctions of a roof — around chimneys, in valleys, against walls — and it's one of the most common sources of leaks when it isn't done properly. We install and repair leadwork to last.

What customers say.
Charlie was absolutely fantastic. On time, friendly, informative, diligent and neat.
Unfortunately he was sadly let down by the skip hire people otherwise Charlie would have left the whole site immaculate.
I would definitely use Charlie again.
Excellent work completed on Roofs will recommend them any day
