Local roofers
Serving homes across Rochester
We work with homeowners throughout Rochester, from the historic streets around the high street and the castle to Borstal, Delce, Warren Wood and the surrounding estates. Rochester is part of the Medway towns, and we regularly work across Medway, several of our Checkatrade reviews come from homeowners in the ME5 postcode area.
Rochester's housing ranges from some of the oldest buildings in Kent, around its medieval centre, through Georgian and Victorian townhouses and terraces, to inter-war and post-war suburbs and modern homes. Many streets are built on sloping ground above the River Medway, which affects both exposure and access.
Alliance operates 24 hours a day with a typical emergency response time within 2 hours, so Rochester homeowners have someone to call whenever a roof problem can't wait.

Local knowledge
Common roof problems in Rochester
Victorian slate roofs
Rochester has many Victorian terraces with natural slate roofs. As the original nails corrode over time, slates begin to slip; a problem known as nail fatigue. A few slipped slates can be refixed, but widespread nail fatigue can mean a section or the whole roof needs relaying.
Sloping streets and exposure
Homes on higher ground overlooking the Medway are more exposed to wind and weather, and access for roof work on steep streets needs careful planning. Ridge, verge and chimney details on exposed homes take the brunt of storms.
Party walls and shared details
Terraced homes share features such as chimney stacks, valleys and parapet walls with neighbours. Leaks can originate from a neighbouring property's defect, so finding the true source is important before any work is carried out.
Historic character
Around Rochester's historic core, maintaining the look of a property matters. Where a home is listed or in a conservation area, there may be restrictions on external changes; worth checking with the council before planning major work.

We cover Rochester as part of our wider work across Kent, which also includes Strood, Chatham, Gillingham and the rest of the county. Because we work across so many towns and villages, we see a very wide range of homes and roofs, and that experience helps us quickly work out what's wrong and what the most sensible fix is.
Whether you need a quick repair on a slipped tile, a new flat roof on an extension, chimney repointing, fresh fascias and guttering, or a complete new roof, the approach is the same: we come out, look properly, explain what we've found in plain English and give you an honest quote. If something doesn't need doing yet, we'll tell you. Many of our Checkatrade reviews mention exactly that: honest, helpful advice with no pressure.
