About us

What Cambrian Roofing is, and what it is not

An independent roofing enquiry service for Powys and Ceredigion. We pass your enquiry to one local roofer. We do not go on roofs.

  • Based in Newtown

The roofing images on this website are AI-generated illustrations, not photographs of completed customer projects.

Why this exists

Finding a roofer in Mid and West Wales is harder than it should be. The distances are long, the good firms are small and busy, most of them have no website, and the search results for "roofers" in Ceredigion or Powys are national directories and quote-farms that sell your details to a list. Cambrian Roofing was built to do the opposite: one enquiry, one local roofer, a written quote.

How it works

  1. You describe the roof. Town, age of the house, what is wrong. Photographs help.
  2. We pass it to one local firm. A roofer who covers your town and does that kind of work. We ask them where their line is before we send anything, because Powys is a big county.
  3. They visit and quote in writing. You deal with the roofer directly from then on. If you want a second opinion, we can pass it to another.

What we are not

We are not a roofing contractor. Nobody at Cambrian Roofing goes on a roof, and we hold no roofing accreditation, no trade insurance and no waste carrier registration. We do not guarantee anyone's work: the roofer does, in their own terms, and you should ask for them. We say this plainly because a site that looks like a roofing firm and is not one is the kind of site we built this to replace.

What we do promise

  • Your enquiry goes to one firm, never to a list.
  • The firm works in your area.
  • Using the service is free and there is no obligation.
  • The guidance on this site is written to help you understand the job before anyone quotes it, and every price we mention names the guide it came from.

Who runs it

Cambrian Roofing is built and run by Tim Dennis, who builds websites and systems for trades businesses, including several roofing firms. The site is a local-enquiry service of the same kind as shropshiredrainage.co.uk, which does the same job for off-mains drainage across Shropshire.

Why Cambrian Roofing

One enquiry. One local connection.

Cambrian Roofing is an independent enquiry service, not a roofing company. We pass your enquiry to a single roofing firm that works in your part of Powys or Ceredigion, and they look at the roof and quote. Your details are not sold on and your phone does not ring ten times.

    Local, and we mean it

    Mid and West Wales is big and the roads are slow. The roofer we pass your enquiry to actually turns out to your town, and we ask them where their line is before we send anything.

    A written quote you can compare

    We ask every roofer we work with to put the price in writing with the materials, the timber allowance and the leadwork set out, so you can put it beside any other quote.

    Honest about what we are

    We do not go on roofs. We do not hold trade accreditations and we do not guarantee anyone's work. The roofer does, and you deal with them directly once we have made the introduction.
