Roofing
Complete roofing solutions from pitched roof installations to emergency leak repairs across Bury St Edmunds, Ely & Littleport.
Flash Roofing UK Ltd is a family-run team of roofers covering Thetford and the Norfolk–Suffolk border. From the historic streets around Castle Hill to the Redcastle Furze and Abbey Farm estates, we handle everything from a slipped tile or blocked gutter to full re-roofs, EPDM flat roofs and specialist lead flashing on period properties.
Thetford has one of the most varied roofscapes in Norfolk — flint-and-brick Georgian cottages in the town centre, long stretches of interwar and post-war housing on estates like Redcastle Furze, Abbey Farm and Cloverfields, and newer developments at Kingsfleet. We work on all of them. For period properties around Bridge Street and the Castle we source reclaimed clay pantiles and use lime-based mortar so repairs sit right with the surrounding brickwork; on the modern estates we work with the standard concrete interlocking tiles and dry-verge systems.
Every roofing service we offer is available across Thetford and the surrounding Norfolk and Suffolk border villages: full pitched roof replacements and re-roofs, EPDM rubber flat roofs on garages and extensions, 24/7 emergency roof repairs after storms, uPVC and timber fascia and soffit installations, seamless guttering and downpipe replacements, and specialist chimney repairs, re-pointing and code-4/code-5 lead flashing. Thetford has a lot of chimney stacks on older properties that need lead work — it's one of the jobs we get called out for most in the area.
The Breckland gets exposed to strong winds sweeping in off the flat farmland, and every autumn we see a run of storm-damage callouts around Thetford — lifted ridge tiles, torn felt on flat garages, and lead flashing pulled clear of the stack. If you've spotted a leak or missing tiles, call the emergency line and we aim to be on site in Thetford within around three hours. We fit temporary weatherproofing straight away, produce the photographic report your insurer will need, and book the permanent repair around your schedule.
Every quote is written by Harry, the owner — not a commission-paid salesperson. We're fully insured for public liability and all work, small or large, comes with a proper written guarantee. A lot of our Thetford work comes through neighbour recommendations after a job on the same street, which is exactly how a local roofer should be judged.
