About this guide


This site explains how roofs work — how they're put together, where they fail, and what it takes to put them right. We write for people in Luton and the surrounding Bedfordshire towns who want to understand their own roof before anyone climbs a ladder.

Some of what we cover is structural: the layers beneath a pitched roof, the choice between EPDM, fibreglass and felt on a flat one. Some of it is local and particular, like re-roofing the housing stock around Dunstable and Houghton Regis, or looking after period and heritage roofs in Leighton Buzzard and Linslade.

The aim is plain: read a piece here, and you'll know enough to ask the right questions and recognise a sensible answer.
