Roofing

We offer a complete range of high quality roofing services. We can replace, refurbish or repair pitched tiled roofs of all sorts. We work with all kinds of roofing materials with many alternatives including stone, slate, natural slate, plain tiling, lead work, and other roof coverings such as felt and asphalt. We are also experts in the construction or reconstruction of flat roofs.

Flat Roofs & Armourplan Single Ply

As agents Grove Roofing have been trained and fully accredited to install Armourplan Single Ply high-quality reinforced PVC roof systems. Armourplan Single Ply is the most eco friendly single ply roofing material in existence; the only system currently available with a full ‘Life Cycle Assessment’ (to ISO 14040 part ff) proving that this product has ‘no significant environmental impacts’ in all stages of its production, from raw material, through installation and ultimately to disposal. Perhaps more importantly, it works. Armourplan needs no hot works during installation and can be installed directly over old bituminous roofs. The system is light on labour.

Specialist Lead Work

We have a wealth of experience in the restoration of historic and period buildings, as well as modern commercial structures, and have brought our skills to bear as part of a range of new building projects. You can be confident that all work will be carried out to the highest standard, and in accordance with the British Lead Association Fitting Guides.

The artisan team deal with all aspects of lead work including: damp proof courses and cavity trays; flashings to abutments and pitched roofs; weatherings to ledges and cornices; lead saddles; lead finials; bat boxes; and lead hoppers. They can also provide a complete re-roof with new substrate timber work.

TESTIMONIALS

Hannah and Kevin O'Donnell

Grove Roofing did a truly excellent job for us on our total roof replacement. Having experienced difficulties with previous companies on the job, we found Grove Roofing to be extremely helpful, efficient, experienced and professional throughout their time working with us. They communicated with us throughout the whole project and worked very well on the job, being very considerate of our neighbours as well as extremely hardworking. When we first contacted them with our query, they were prompt, knowledgeable and very competitive and we are so very glad that we chose them to complete the job. We are extremely happy with the completed work and would happily recommend them to anyone or provide testimonial to their work (written or pictorial).

R.F.Rives-Roberts, Timbertek Ltd, Chumleigh, Devon

David Grove has been our roofing contractor for over 20 years. Throughout this time he has been consciences and bent over backwards at times to get us in the dry. David is multi faceted, apart from the traditional slating , tiling and mineral felt flat roofing he is able to offer the modern single ply roofing technology. His lead work and lead burning has always been excellent with an attention to detail that we have required. Timbertek in it various building projects over the years has always prided itself in the quality of its build. David has been in the forefront of that. I therefore do not hesitate in recommending David highly.

Andy & Polly Potter, Ash Thomas, Tiverton

We want to thank everyone at Grove Roofing for what was - for us at least – a major undertaking, building a new first floor timber framed extension on top of what used to be an incredibly ugly 1980's flat roofed garage set into a Devon bank. As you know, we were very new to the South West and without local knowledge, so you can imagine that finding a trustworthy builder was a very real worry for us. We were given your number by the estate agent we bought the cottage through. Although we did approach several builders and received a number of quotations we were impressed from the very first by David Grove's keen interest in the project. Some of the suggestions he made at that first meeting did eventually find themselves in the finished item. The price he quoted wasn't quite the cheapest; but neither was it nearly the most expensive, so we went ahead and we've had no regrets at any point. David recommended an architectural technician to draw up the plans and get us planning approval through, and also sorted out a team of electricians who always turned up when they said they would! All very impressive!
