Pitched Roofing in Keswick and the Surrounding Cumbria Area from a Time-Served Team of Roofers
While many roofers will only oversee the installation of flat roofs, the team at Clay Roofing Services Ltd has the training and experience needed to design and install pitched roofing to the highest standard imaginable. Active in the Keswick and Cumbria areas, our contractors will travel across the UK to offer a broad range of services to clients in the domestic and commercial sectors.
We specialise in the installation of new roofs and in roof repairs.
Here, we explain what pitched roofing services are and discuss common roof repairs carried out over the course of an average week. If you would like to discuss a project you have in mind, or to have a question answered, do not hesitate to call our highly experienced team of roofers for a quotation.
Pitched Roofing Construction
There are two key methods that all roofing contractors employ to construct a pitched roofing structure. The “cut” method is the more traditional of the two, and it involves our roofers cutting the requisite timber onsite or “in situ”. When a roofer uses this method, they will gradually construct new roofs by joining up the rafters, joists, purlins and similar components, such as the ridge boards.
The “truss” technique is used when, for one reason or another, a steadier and more gradual construction is impossible. We will prefabricate roof trusses and these are transported to sites in Keswick, Cumbria or elsewhere in the UK.
We erect trussed roofing in one simple operation. Our roofers consult with you to figure out the options that will best suit your needs and property type.
Remember that there are different styles of pitched roofing. At Clay Roofing Services Ltd, we pride ourselves on being able to construct new roofs on any pitched build type, adapting our final designs to an agreed specification.
Examples of pitched roofing we have previously built include:
- Mono Pitched Roofing
- Collared Roofs
- Purlin Roofing
- Trussed Rafters
- Large Section Trusses
- Coupled Roofs
- Closed-Coupled Roofs

Key reasons to choose pitched roofing over flat roofing systems can include a timeless aesthetic, as well as extra inhabitable areas within the roof space.
Pitched Roof Repairs
Clay Roofing Services Ltd provides a genuine 24/7 pitched roof repair service to clients in Keswick, Cumbria and all surrounding regions. If a roof has sprung a leak during the night, you will never need to wait until the following morning to get our roofers’ help – by which time your home could easily be flooded.
Alongside urgent work, roof repairs also cover wear and tear and our roofers will even manage pitched roofing refurbishments. This means that if you have an older roof that you like the character of, but which has started to become compromised, we can restore it without radically transforming your property.
Perhaps the most typical pitched roofing repairs involve us replacing slates or tiles that have been damaged or fallen from the roof. This involves matching the slate or tile perfectly to avoid disrupting the unified aesthetic character of the structure. Damage due to inclement weather, warped timber and similar problems can also be quickly diagnosed and dealt with so, if you notice that something isn’t in good order, do not waste time in contacting our roofers.
Clay Roofing Services Ltd will always be ready and waiting to take your call.
From new roofs to responsive roof repairs on a 24-hour basis, everything that a customer could possibly need is available in one convenient place.
