Roofing in Chelmsford

Welcome

Harris Roof Solutions carry out new roof installations and are full re-roof experts.

We also replace the full roof.  This includes replacing the Membrane, Battens and Roof Tiles. 

Roofs usually last about 25 years, if maintained. So it is worth considering a full new roof installation.

When installing a new roof we remove (from site) all the old roofing materials and replace with a new breathable roof membrane, new treated wooden battens and new roof tiles.

You, the client may have the choice of the type of roof tile and the colour.

All rubbish is removed from the project site.
