The roofs we see in Mildenhall
Mildenhall is a market town with a lot of post war housing around it, much of it built quickly and roofed in concrete tile with mortar bedded ridges and verges. The villages on the fen edge, Beck Row and West Row in particular, are bungalow country. The older centre has clay tile and some slate, and the usual run of flat roofed extensions behind.
The job we get called for most around Mildenhall is mortar failure. Bedded ridge and verge mortar cracks, water gets behind it, the batten ends rot and then the whole edge of the roof starts to lift. It is a straightforward fix if it is caught, and a re-roof if it is not.
What we are working on in Mildenhall
Post war concrete tile estates, fen edge bungalows at Beck Row and West Row, and clay tile and slate in the older centre.
Flat, open and dry, with the wind coming straight off the fen.
What we get called out for in Mildenhall
Mortar failure at the ridge and the verge, which is what most of the post war stock around here does at the same age. Then fen edge bungalow work at Beck Row and West Row, and the usual flat roofed extensions behind the older houses.
Signs your roof needs looking at
- Tiles, slates or lumps of mortar on the ground after wind
- Green streaks running down the wall below a gutter joint
- Fascia or bargeboard paint flaking, with the timber going dark underneath
- A damp patch upstairs that comes back every time it rains hard
- Sagging along the ridge line when you look from across the road

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 Mildenhall: your questions
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 Mildenhall 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 Mildenhall 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 I need scaffolding for work in Mildenhall?
For a full re-cover, and for most work above single storey, yes. It goes on the quote as a line you can see rather than buried in the price, so you know exactly what the access is costing.
How much do roofers in Mildenhall 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.
How long will I wait for a survey in Mildenhall?
Usually days rather than weeks. Mildenhall is a short run from the fen edge villages we are in most weeks.
