Roofers in Aberystwyth
Cambrian Roofing covers Aberystwyth and the villages around it. Tell us what the roof is doing and we pass it to a local roofer who quotes in writing.
Aberystwyth is the largest town on Cardigan Bay, a university and county town of tall Victorian seafront terraces, streets of slate-roofed houses behind them, student housing, and suburbs at Penparcau, Llanbadarn Fawr and Waunfawr.
The roofs
The seafront and the streets behind it are natural slate on high Victorian pitches, with parapet gutters, lead valleys and chimney stacks that face the sea, and the suburbs add concrete tile and flat roofs.
The weather
This is the most exposed town in the area: the promenade takes Atlantic storms head on, the wind carries salt well inland, and slipped slates after a winter gale are the commonest roofing call in town.
Planning and materials
The seafront and the old town are conservation areas, so re-roofing a terrace there means matching slate and keeping the ridge and chimney lines.
How Cambrian Roofing works in Aberystwyth
We are an independent roofing enquiry service for Powys and Ceredigion, not a roofing firm. Tell us what the roof is doing and where, from the streets around the promenade and Constitution Hill to the villages out at Llanbadarn Fawr, Penparcau, Bow Street, and we pass the enquiry to one local roofer who covers Aberystwyth. They visit, look properly and quote in writing. There is no charge for using the service and no obligation when the quote arrives.
