Your Local Roofer in Durham

DG Roofing Services covers Durham City and the surrounding villages — Gilesgate, Belmont, Newton Hall, Framwellgate Moor, Brandon, Bowburn and beyond. From student terraces to family homes and period properties, we repair, re-roof and maintain all types of roof.

Parts of central Durham sit within conservation areas, where materials and appearance matter. We'll always advise you to check with the council before changes that affect how a roof looks.

Dry Ridge & Dry Verge Specialists

Crumbling mortar on your ridge and gable ends is the No.1 cause of loose tiles we see in Durham. We strip it out and fit a Manthorpe dry ridge and dry verge system — every tile mechanically fixed, no more repointing, built to BS 5534. They go together, but we do each on its own too.

Excellent roofer highly recommended

“We had water getting into our extension and noticed our ridge tiles were loose too. D G Roofing came out, knew exactly what the problem was straight away, and gave us a really reasonable quote. They were back just a couple of days later to get started, and even fixed a couple of small things they spotted along the way — all within the original price. Absolutely delighted with the work; I'd have no hesitation in recommending them!”

“Very pleased by the work completed, which was replacement ridge tiles using a dry ridge system and sorting out an issue with water drainage into the gutters. We were kept up to date on the job timing beforehand. The DG team was great to deal with. The job was completed promptly within 3 working days. The DG team made sure that the site was left clean and tidy. The price for the job was very competitive. I wouldn't hesitate to use DG Roofing services again if I have any more issue with my roof.”

Repair Leak in Pitched Roof

“The lads rang up this morning, asked for some photos and diagnosed the problem straight away. Came out the same day, completed the job in no time at all. Both a friendly bunch of lads, showed photos of before and after the work (too high up to see myself) and went through everything in detail. They offered various solutions and gave a great price. I’d absolutely recommend 10/10!”
