The roofs we see in Lakenheath
Lakenheath is a fen edge village with a great deal of housing tied to the airbase alongside the older core, so you get post war and modern estate stock sitting next to flint, brick and clay tile.
A lot of the property here is let or changes hands often, which means roofs get inspected at survey and then need a written quote quickly. We are used to that: photographs, an itemised quote and a clear scope, without dragging it out. On the older village property it is the usual pantile, valley and chimney work.
What we are working on in Lakenheath
Flint, brick and clay tile in the old village, with post war and modern estate housing around it.
Fen edge and very exposed, with the same ridge and verge failures we see across Littleport and Mildenhall.
What we get called out for in Lakenheath
Survey work with a quick written quote, because so much of the housing here changes hands or is let, plus pantile, valley and chimney work on the older village property.
Signs your roof needs looking at
- Staining on the chimney breast in a bedroom
- Sagging along the ridge line when you look from across the road
- Felt visibly torn or hanging down when you look up at the eaves
- Gutters overflowing in one spot only
- A ridge tile sitting visibly proud of the line next to it

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 Lakenheath: your questions
How quickly can you get to an emergency in Lakenheath?
Ring the mobile on 07934 565 449. Lakenheath is next door to Mildenhall. You will get told realistically when we can be there rather than a number picked to sound good.
Do you cover the villages around Lakenheath?
Yes. We regularly work in Eriswell, Beck Row, Undley, Wangford, Hockwold cum Wilton, Feltwell, Brandon and Mildenhall.
How much do roofers in Lakenheath charge?
It depends entirely on the job, and anybody who gives you a figure before seeing the roof is guessing. What we can tell you is that the survey and the written, itemised quote are free, and the quote separates out access, materials and labour so you can compare it properly against anyone else's.
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 Lakenheath 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.
How long will I wait for a survey in Lakenheath?
Usually days rather than weeks. Lakenheath is next door to Mildenhall.
