A Roofing Company That’s Actually Based in Claygate
There’s no shortage of roofing companies claiming to “cover” Claygate. Very few are actually based here. Roofs of Esher is registered since 2014 and working from Claygate itself, which means we know the difference between a straightforward tile repair on a 1930s semi and a job on one of the Arts and Crafts-era homes around the old Foley Estate, where materials and appearance matter as much as watertightness. We’ve documented our work with over 379 photos on Google – more than any of our direct local competitors – so you can see the standard of finish before you book, not just take our word for it.

Why Claygate Homeowners Choose a Local Roofer Over a Surrey-Wide One
Companies covering the whole of Surrey are, by definition, spread thin. When you call a business based in Epsom or further out, you’re often one of dozens of jobs scattered across the county that week. We work Claygate and the immediately surrounding villages – Esher, Hinchley Wood, Oxshott and Thames Ditton – which means shorter response times, fewer scheduling gaps between jobs, and a roofer who already knows your street. If you’ve had a quote from a Surrey-wide outfit and felt like just another postcode on a list, that’s exactly the gap we exist to close.
How We Handle a Roofing Job in Claygate
- Free survey. We come out to assess the roof in person – no obligation, no hard sell.
- Diagnosis. We identify the actual cause, not just the visible symptom (a stain on a ceiling can come from a dozen different failure points).
- Written quote. Clear pricing for the work needed, whether that’s a patch repair or a full replacement.
- The work itself. From single slipped tiles to full re-roofs, valley repairs, new PVC fascias, soffits and guttering, guttering, fascia and soffit repair and leadwork around chimneys and flashings, chimney repairs and rebuilds .
- Photo record. We document before, during and after – the same practice behind our 379-photo Google library – so you have a record of what was done.
- Sign-off. A final check with you before we leave..
Our day-to-day Claygate work spans everything from roof inspections and full installations through to storm and wind damage repair, new PVC fascias, soffits and guttering, leadwork, ridge tile repair, and valley repair – the kind of job that’s easy to miss until it’s caused real damp damage inside the property.
Claygate’s Roofs Aren’t All the Same – And Neither Is Our Approach
Claygate is a genuinely mixed village when it comes to roofing. Around Church Road and the old village centre, and across the Foley Estate, you’re often dealing with conservation area properties where Elmbridge Borough Council expects like-for-like materials and a sympathetic approach to visible repairs – we work with that constraint rather than against it. Elsewhere, particularly toward the newer development at the edges of the village, you’re more likely to be dealing with modern flat-roof extensions and garage roofs, where EPDM rubber and felt systems our flat roofing services are the norm rather than slate or tile.
The village’s heavy tree cover – Claygate Common, Telegraph Hill and Princes Coverts all border residential streets – means moss, algae and gutter debris build up faster here on shaded roof sections than they do on more exposed properties elsewhere in Elmbridge. If your gutters back up every autumn without fail, that’s usually why.
What a Roof Repair or Replacement Costs in Claygate
Every roof is different, so we won’t quote a figure here that doesn’t reflect your actual job – but the main factors that move the price are roof size and pitch, the material (slate and tile cost more than felt or EPDM flat roofing), scaffold access, and whether the underlying timber or felt needs replacing alongside the visible covering. The most reliable way to know what your job will cost is a free, no-obligation survey – which is exactly how we start every enquiry.
