Why homeowners choose us

A Small Team That
Answers for Its Own Work

SL Roofing Services is a family-run, three-person team led by owner Samuel Lloyd. The person who quotes your job is on site while it's done and answers the phone afterwards. Nothing is passed to a subcontractor you've never met.

Seven years of hands-on roofing in Chelmsford and across Essex has taught us that most roof problems cost more in delay than in materials. So we keep the process short: look at it properly, price it honestly, and get it watertight.

How it works

Three Steps From Leaking
to Sorted

01

Free inspection

Call or send the form and we'll arrange a visit. We get up and look at the roof itself rather than guessing from the pavement, then explain in plain terms what's failed and what actually needs doing.

02

Fixed written quote

You get one clear price covering labour, materials and access. No day rates, no provisional sums, no pressure to decide on the doorstep. If a cheaper repair will genuinely hold, we'll say so.

03

Work completed and cleared

We turn up when we say, keep the site tidy, and leave the roof watertight. New roofs are handed over with a 3-year workmanship guarantee in writing.

Common questions

The Things People Ask
Before They Book

Do you charge for quotes or roof inspections?

No. Quotes and roof inspections are free. We'll come out, get eyes on the actual problem and give you a written fixed price before any work is agreed.

How do you price work?

Always as a fixed price. We do not work on day rates, so the figure we quote is the figure you pay unless you ask us to change the scope of the job.

Is your work guaranteed?

New roofs come with a 3-year workmanship guarantee. Flat and rubber roof installations also include a manufacturer-backed membrane guarantee. Repairs are not sold with a workmanship guarantee.

Are you insured?

Yes. We hold £1,000,000 public liability insurance, and we're happy to show the documentation before work starts.

Which areas do you cover?

Chelmsford, Witham, Southend-on-Sea, Braintree, Maldon, Billericay, Basildon, Brentwood, Wickford, Rayleigh and South Woodham Ferrers, plus the surrounding Essex villages.

How do I pay?

We accept card, cash and bank transfer.
