From slipped Penrhyn slate on Victorian terraces to cracked concrete tiles on Craig-y-Don estates — honest diagnosis, quality repairs, no unnecessary upsell to replacement. Free quotes across Llandudno and the North Wales coast.
We handle all repair types on all roof types common to Llandudno's housing stock — from original Victorian slate to 1970s concrete interlocking tiles.
Slipped, cracked or nail-sicked Penrhyn Blue slate is the most common repair call across Llandudno's period housing. We carry reclaimed matching stock and re-fix with correct copper disc rivets.

Get a quote →Salt air accelerates lead oxidation and mortar joint failure around chimneys and abutments. We repair or replace flashings using BS EN 12588 code-grade lead with correct step and soaker details.
Get a quote →Blocked or failed valleys cause the majority of internal leak damage. We clear, re-line with lead or GRP valley tray and relay surrounding slate to a watertight finish.
Get a quote →Where original sarking felt has failed under the slate, we can carry out targeted felt and batten replacement without a full re-roof — saving significant cost where the slates themselves are still good.
Get a quote →Same-day response for storm-related damage across Llandudno. We make the roof safe and watertight first, then schedule the full repair at your convenience.

"Valley repair on the rear of our Victorian terrace. Previous patch had failed after 18 months. This team stripped it back, replaced the lead and relaid the surrounding tiles. Solid job."
"Noticed a dark stain spreading across the bedroom ceiling. Called Monday, they were up on the roof Wednesday, found the cracked ridge section and had it sorted same day."
Llandudno's housing stock spans over 150 years of building eras, and each brings its own repair profile. The Victorian and Edwardian terraces clustered around the promenade, Gloddaeth Street and the church streets were originally laid with Penrhyn Blue slate — a material that, where sound, is genuinely superior to modern alternatives. The challenge on these roofs is nail sickness: the original iron nails corrode and allow slates to slip without the slate itself being damaged. In these cases, we strip, re-nail with copper, and relay the original slates wherever possible.
The 1930s semi-detached properties in the Bodafon and Craig-y-Don areas were built with plain concrete interlocking tiles and are now approaching 90 years old in some cases. These roofs commonly need re-bedding of ridge lines, valley relining and occasional batten replacement where the original softwood has softened. The post-war estates further east in Craig-y-Don used heavier concrete interlocking tiles that are now entering the failure phase — nail corrosion again is the primary driver.
Much of the Victorian town centre falls within the Llandudno Conservation Area. Permitted development rights for roof materials are restricted — if your property is within the conservation boundary, any re-roofing or significant repair using different materials may need prior approval from Conwy County Borough Council. We navigate this regularly and can advise on what applies to your specific address.
All prices subject to survey. Free written quote provided before work begins.
If fewer than 25–30% of your tiles or slates are failing and the underlying timbers and felt are sound, repair is usually the right call. On Llandudno's Victorian terraces with original Penrhyn slate, a repair-first approach often extends the roof life by 15–20 years. We survey and give you an honest assessment — no upsell to a replacement you don't need.
Yes. We source reclaimed Penrhyn Blue slate to match original stock on Llandudno's period properties. Where the Conwy conservation area requires material matching, we have established suppliers and can document compliance for planning purposes.
Minor repairs — a handful of slipped slates, re-bedding a ridge tile, resealing a flashing — typically cost £150–£400. More extensive work such as valley replacement or a half-slope repair runs £400–£900. We provide a written quote before any work begins.
Yes — we repair GRP, EPDM and felt flat roofs in addition to all pitched roof types. Flat-roofed rear extensions are common on Llandudno's Victorian terraces and often need attention every 10–15 years. See our flat roofing page for more detail.
