Experienced Roofers Serving the Forest of Dean & Wye Valley

Roofing Company in Forest of Dean You Can Trust

Montpellier Roofing Contractors provide professional roofing services for homeowners across the Forest of Dean and surrounding areas. Based in Cheltenham, our experienced team travels regularly to Lydney, Coleford, Cinderford, Newent, Mitcheldean, Drybrook and the many smaller villages and hamlets throughout the Forest and the Wye Valley. The Forest of Dean presents unique roofing challenges compared to the more sheltered towns of Gloucestershire. Properties here are exposed to higher rainfall, strong prevailing westerly winds and — in the Forest’s heavily wooded areas — persistent moss, lichen and leaf debris that accumulate on roofs rapidly. Many older homes in the former mining villages feature traditional stone or rendered construction with slate or tile roofs that have been in place for decades, while the more modern estates in Lydney, Coleford and Cinderford have concrete tile roofs and flat-roofed extensions that require different materials and techniques.

Our roofers have hands-on experience with all of these. Whether you need emergency roof repairs after storm damage, a complete new roof, flat roofing for a garage or extension, or routine maintenance to keep your roof performing in the Forest’s demanding climate, we deliver reliable workmanship with honest pricing and a professional service.

We also provide slate and tile roofing, fascias, soffits and guttering, roof and gutter cleaning, dry verge and ridge systems, chimney repairs and repointing, and protective roof coatings — giving Forest of Dean homeowners access to the full range of roofing services from a single trusted contractor.

Roof Repairs Forest of Dean

Roo Repair Services in Forest of Dean

Properties across the Forest of Dean are exposed to heavy rainfall, strong winds and falling branches from the surrounding woodland — all of which can cause roof damage at any time of year. Older homes in Cinderford, Coleford, Drybrook and Mitcheldean with ageing slate or tile roofs are particularly susceptible to slipped tiles, cracked slates and deteriorating flashings. At Montpellier Roofing Contractors, we carry out all types of roof repairs across the Forest of Dean. Our roofers inspect the roof thoroughly, identify the root cause and carry out a lasting repair using quality materials. We work on pitched roofs, flat roofs, slate and tile roofs, valleys, chimney flashings and ridge lines.

Common roof repairs we carry out in the Forest of Dean:

New Roofing Forest of Dean

New Roof Installations Forest of Dean - Roof Replacements & Re-Roofing

Whether you own a stone cottage in one of the Forest’s older villages, a mid-century semi in Lydney or Coleford, or a modern detached home on a newer development, our team provides professional new roof installations tailored to the style and structure of your property. If your existing roof has persistent leaks, widespread tile damage, visible sagging or rotten timbers, a full replacement is often the most cost-effective long-term solution. We install natural slate, concrete tiles, clay tiles and modern flat roofing systems including GRP fibreglass and EPDM rubber — advising on the best option based on your property’s style, exposure and budget.

Our new roofing services in Forest of Dean include:

Flat Roofing Forest of Dean

Flat Roof Installations & Repairs Forest of Dean

Flat roofs on garages, extensions and outbuildings are common across the Forest of Dean. Many older flat roofs covered in traditional felt or asphalt have started to fail — blistering, splitting and ponding water after years of exposure to the Forest’s high rainfall. We install and repair modern flat roofing systems using GRP fibreglass, EPDM rubber and torch-on felt. Each system offers far superior waterproofing and longevity compared to old-style coverings — lasting 20 to 30 years or more when professionally installed.

Our flat roofing services include:

Slate & Tile Roofing Forest of Dean

The Forest of Dean’s housing stock includes a wide variety of slate and tile roofs — from traditional Welsh slate on older stone cottages to concrete interlocking tiles on post-war and modern estates. Exposure to wind, rain and falling debris from overhanging trees means tiles crack, slip and break more frequently here than in more sheltered parts of Gloucestershire. Our team carries out careful repairs, tile matching and full replacements across the Forest. We source materials to match existing roof coverings wherever possible, and we advise on the most durable options for properties in exposed locations.

Our slate & tile roofing services include:

Whether it’s a minor repair or a full roof replacement, our team delivers dependable workmanship and long-lasting results tailored to homes in the Forest of Dean.

Fascias, Soffits & Guttering Forest of Dean

Gutter Repairs & Guttering Forest of Dean

Many Forest of Dean properties have timber fascia boards and soffits that have rotted, warped or deteriorated after years of exposure to the damp, wooded environment. Blocked gutters are also a common problem — leaf fall from the surrounding tree canopy can fill guttering systems rapidly during autumn and winter, causing overflow and water damage to walls and foundations. We install, repair and replace fascias, soffits and guttering across the Forest of Dean. We remove failing timber and replace it with modern uPVC roofline systems that are weather-resistant, rot-proof and virtually maintenance-free.

Our roofline services include:

Roof Cleaning & Gutter Cleaning Forest of Dean

The Forest of Dean’s damp, wooded setting means moss, algae and lichen grow on roof tiles faster than almost anywhere else in Gloucestershire. Properties surrounded by trees also suffer from heavy leaf fall blocking gutters and valley channels — especially during autumn. If left unchecked, trapped moisture causes tiles to crack, frost damage accelerates, and gutters overflow against walls. Our team provides professional roof cleaning and gutter cleaning across the Forest of Dean. We use safe, low-pressure methods to remove moss and organic growth without damaging tiles, and we clear all gutters, downpipes and valley channels to restore proper drainage.

Our roof & gutter cleaning services include:

Ridge Tiles & Dry Verge Systems Forest of Dean

Ridge tiles and verge edges on Forest of Dean properties take a battering from the area’s strong winds and driving rain. Traditional mortar bedding cracks and crumbles faster in exposed locations, leaving ridge tiles loose and vulnerable to being lifted during storms. Modern dry ridge and dry verge systems replace mortar with mechanical fixings that hold each tile securely in place without any mortar at all. These systems are significantly stronger, longer-lasting and require no ongoing maintenance — making them particularly well-suited to the Forest’s exposed conditions.

Our ridge and verge services include:

Chimney Repairs & Repointing in Forest of Dean

Chimney stacks on Forest of Dean properties are fully exposed to the prevailing weather and often deteriorate faster than in more sheltered locations. Over time, mortar joints erode, flaunching around chimney pots cracks, and lead flashings at the base of the chimney can lift or corrode — allowing water to track down into the property. At Montpellier Roofing Contractors, we provide professional chimney repairs and repointing across the Forest of Dean. We use mortar matched to the age of the property — lime mortar for older stone and period masonry, sand-cement for modern builds — and we repair flaunching, renew lead flashings, replace chimney pots and fit cowls and caps.

Our chimney services include:

Roof Coating Forest of Dean

If the tiles on your Forest of Dean home have become porous, stained or heavily moss-covered but the underlying roof structure is still sound, a professional roof coating can restore their appearance and extend their lifespan — at a fraction of the cost of a full re-roof. Our process begins with a thorough clean to remove all moss and organic growth. We then replace any damaged tiles, apply a fungicidal treatment, and finish with a specialist protective coating that seals the tile surface, improves water resistance and helps prevent future moss growth. This treatment is especially effective in the Forest of Dean where damp, shaded conditions encourage rapid moss regrowth

Our roof coating process includes:

We handle all types of roof repairs across the Forest of Dean including leak diagnosis, missing or cracked tile replacement, ridge tile rebedding, lead flashing repairs, valley gutter clearance, storm and wind damage restoration, and tree damage repairs. We work on pitched roofs, flat roofs and all common roofing materials.

How do I know if my Forest of Dean home needs a new roof?

Common signs that a new roof may be needed include frequent or recurring leaks, sagging visible from inside the loft or outside, widespread cracked, broken or missing tiles, daylight visible through the roof boards, and rotten or deteriorating timber structure. Our team will carry out a free inspection and advise honestly on whether a repair or full replacement is the right solution.

What flat roofing systems do you install in the Forest of Dean?

We install GRP fibreglass, EPDM rubber and torch-on felt flat roofs. Each system offers excellent waterproofing and longevity — GRP and EPDM last 25–30+ years, felt around 15–20 years. We recommend the best system based on the roof size, usage and budget. We also repair leaking flat roofs and replace old felt and asphalt coverings.

Do you provide guttering and roofline services in the Forest of Dean?

Yes. We install, repair and replace uPVC fascias, soffits and guttering across the Forest of Dean. Blocked gutters are a common problem in the Forest due to heavy leaf fall from surrounding trees — we also provide gutter clearing and can fit leaf guards to reduce future blockages.

Can you carry out emergency roof repairs in the Forest of Dean?

Yes. If you have a sudden leak, storm damage, a fallen tree branch through the roof, or any other urgent roofing issue, call us on 01242 309 035 as soon as possible. We aim to attend Forest of Dean properties quickly to make the roof safe and watertight before carrying out a full permanent repair.

Why do Forest of Dean roofs need cleaning more often?

The Forest of Dean's damp, sheltered and heavily wooded environment creates ideal conditions for rapid moss, algae and lichen growth on roof tiles. Properties surrounded by trees also accumulate leaf debris in gutters and valleys faster than homes in open areas. Regular roof and gutter cleaning prevents moisture damage and extends the life of your roofing materials.

Do you carry out chimney repairs in the Forest of Dean?

Yes. Our team provides chimney stack repointing, flaunching repair, lead flashing renewal, chimney pot replacement and chimney cowl fitting across the Forest of Dean. Chimney stacks on exposed Forest properties deteriorate faster than average and benefit from regular inspection and timely maintenance.

No. We do not charge a separate call-out fee for travelling to the Forest of Dean. The full cost of the job is included in your written quote — what we quote is what you pay.

Can you match existing roof tiles on older Forest of Dean properties?

In most cases, yes. We carry a range of slate and tile options and can source materials to match existing roof coverings on older Forest of Dean homes. Where an exact match is not available, we will discuss the closest alternatives with you before starting any work.
