Full roofing service covering Entry Hill and the BA2 area. Free assessments, written quotes, no call-out fees.
Entry Hill is a residential area on the southern edge of Bath, between Bear Flat and Odd Down on the plateau south of the city. The area sits at an elevation that gives it above-average wind exposure, particularly on the south and west-facing slopes. The housing stock is predominantly post-war with some Victorian and Edwardian properties on the older streets.
Post-war concrete interlocking tile is the dominant roofing material across Entry Hill's estate housing, built between 1950 and 1980. Some older Victorian and Edwardian properties on the main routes have Welsh slate. The southern plateau position means ridge mortar failure is more common and more frequent than at valley-floor Bath locations.
Ridge tile mortar failure on post-war concrete interlocking tile is the primary repair call. Above-average frequency due to the elevated south-facing exposure. Welsh slate nail sickness on the older properties. Flat roof deterioration on rear extensions across the post-war stock.

Not every roof concern needs urgent work, and we'll always tell you honestly if it can wait. The signs worth acting on across Entry Hill's housing stock are: a damp patch or stain on an upstairs ceiling after rain, a slate or tile in the garden or gutter, daylight or wet timbers visible in the loft, crumbling mortar on ridges or chimney stacks, or guttering overflowing down the wall. Entry Hill's elevation brings wind exposure.
When it's not urgent: a single slipped slate on a sound roof, or moss that's cosmetic rather than lifting the covering, can often be monitored or booked in at your convenience rather than treated as an emergency. A free survey settles which camp your roof is in — and whether repair or replacement is the smarter spend.
How we reach a roof in Entry Hill depends on the property. Sloping-plot post-war housing, mostly accessible. Most repairs run from towers or roof ladders; a full re-roof or chimney job needs scaffold for safe standing time, which we always itemise in your written quote and arrange ourselves.
Pavement scaffold and skip permits go through Bath & North East Somerset Council; allow a few working days on tighter streets like Entry Hill, Rush Hill, Greenway Lane where kerb space is limited. We handle the permit paperwork and liaise with the council so you don't have to.
