The roofs we see in Diss
Diss is an old market town built around the mere, with timber framed and Georgian property in the centre, a lot of it listed, and Victorian and modern housing spreading out from it into the Waveney valley villages.
The centre of Diss is period roofing: steep pitches, clay pantile and plain tile, valleys and complicated junctions where buildings have been extended into each other over centuries. Those junctions are where the water gets in, and they need lead worked properly rather than a bead of sealant.
What we are working on in Diss
Timber framed, Georgian and listed property in the centre, Victorian and modern housing around it, and clay pantile on much of the older stock.
The Waveney valley is sheltered compared with the fen, so age, junctions and detailing cause more failures here than wind.
What we get called out for in Diss
Period roofing in the centre: steep pitches, clay pantile and plain tile, and the complicated junctions where buildings have been extended into each other over the years. Those junctions are where the water gets in.

Reviews
What customers say
The team repaired a leak in my roof, delivering a brilliant service from start to finish. Competitively priced and I would highly recommend!!
I’ve just had a re-roof done by Flash roofing, we initially had 3 quote and they were by far the most competitive while making us at ease with everything they offered! Really happy with the outcome and the job was left tidy - couldn’t recommend this team enough!
Great service from start to finish. The team arrived on time, explained everything clearly, and completed the work to a high standard. The roof looks solid again, and everything was left tidy. Reliable, professional, and fairly priced, highly recommend.
FAQs
Roofing in Diss: your questions
How long will I wait for a survey in Diss?
Usually days rather than weeks. Diss is east of Thetford, towards the far edge of our patch.
How quickly can you get to an emergency in Diss?
Ring the mobile on 07934 565 449. Diss is east of Thetford, towards the far edge of our patch. You will get told realistically when we can be there rather than a number picked to sound good.
Will you tell me if I do not need the work doing?
Yes, and it happens often. Plenty of the roofs we are called to in Diss need a day's work rather than the re-roof somebody else has quoted for, and we would rather do the small job and be the people you ring next time.
Do you do small jobs in Diss or only full roofs?
Both. One slipped tile, a cracked verge, a blocked gutter or a single length of flashing are all normal jobs for us.
Do you cover the villages around Diss?
Yes. We regularly work in Roydon, Palgrave, Burston, Scole, Bressingham, Shelfanger, Stuston and Brome.
