Inside a Doyle roof

Seven layers between your home and the weather

Scroll to build a roof the way we do, from the rafters up. Each layer is something we check, repair or replace, and each one is covered by the 20 year written guarantee.

  1. Rafters and timbers

    Once the old covering is off we check every rafter, joist and wall plate, and replace rotten or split timbers before anything goes back on.

  2. Loft insulation

    Insulation laid between the ceiling joists keeps the heat in your rooms instead of losing it through the roof.

  3. Breathable membrane

    The membrane under the battens stops wind-driven rain and lets moisture out of the loft, so the timbers stay dry.

  4. Treated battens

    Battens are set out to the right gauge for the tile or slate, so every course sits straight and every piece is fixed.

  5. Tiles or slates

    Laid course by course from the eaves up, with the overlaps the manufacturer specifies. This is the part you see from the street.

  6. Ridge tiles

    Bedded or dry fixed along the top of the roof, where the wind hits hardest and old mortar fails first.

  7. Lead flashing

    Lead dressed around the chimney and into the brickwork. Get this detail wrong and the best roof in the street still leaks.

Before and after

Same roof, same scaffold, a few days apart

This concrete tile roof was worn, weathered and patched when we put the scaffold up. We stripped it, laid new membrane and battens, fitted new tiles, ridge and guttering, and photographed it again from the same spot. Drag the slider to compare.

TrustATrader review
Hugh and his team were recommended to us by a neighbour. He did a really thorough job when carrying out his initial survey and didn't push us to make a decision. We were quoted a competitive price and ended up having our whole roof replaced. The work was done really quickly, but to a high standard. Any questions or small issues we had were answered and addressed straight away, removing any potential stress. Hugh made sure we were 100% happy with the job and we were really impressed with the level of communication, as well as his attention to detail. You hear some horror stories, so it was really reassuring to find a reliable service.

Google review
Such a positive experience to find a reliable and helpful contractor. Having had my flat roof repaired last month by this builder I enquired about the cost of the main house roof and found Hugh both helpful and knowledgeable about alternative roofing options. I decided to have Doyle Homes to reroof the house and apart from a small hiccup with scaffolding, which was not Doyle's fault, the work has now been completed and the results speak for themselves. In three days my tired old roof has been replaced by a brilliant team who worked very hard, and tidied up after themselves, all under the watchful eye of Hugh. I would have no hesitation in recommending this company to anyone who is considering roofing work and would certainly use them again.

Doyle Homes Ltd attended within 24 hours of contacting and had emergency scaffolding in place within a further 48 to make the job safe with the repair work being completed within a week. Not only did the company provide a competitive quote, they were also prompt in response to my initial contact and delivered great customer care during the duration of the job. Outstanding service provided and will have no hesitation in using them again.

Roofers in Dunstable and Houghton Regis

Roofers in Dunstable laying new battens over breathable membrane

Dunstable is home. Our office is on Union Street, a few minutes from the town centre, so when you ring for roofers in Dunstable or Houghton Regis we are minutes away rather than an hour up the M1. That matters most when a storm has lifted tiles or water is coming through a ceiling, and it matters again later, because the people who quoted your roof are still round the corner if you ever need them.

The roofs here are a mix. The older streets off West Street, High Street North and around the Priory have Victorian and Edwardian terraces with slate and clay roofs, tall chimney stacks and lead valleys. The 1930s and post-war semis across Dunstable and the big estates in Houghton Regis mostly carry concrete interlocking tiles with mortar ridges, and many now have original felt that has turned brittle underneath. Add the flat roofs on extensions, garages and dormers, and that is most of what we see across LU5 and LU6.

What we do on Dunstable roofs

Most calls start with a leak. We trace it back to where the water actually gets in, which is rarely where the stain is, and fix that: a cracked tile, a loose ridge, failed lead at the chimney or a split in a flat roof. When a roof is past repairing, we strip and re-roof it in tile or slate with new membrane, battens and lead, and replace any rotten timbers we find on the way. While the scaffold is up, plenty of customers have their fascias, soffits and guttering renewed at the same time.

Every job, large or small, carries the same promises. The quote is free and carries no obligation. We will beat any written quote for the same work. We are fully insured and carry out a risk assessment before we start. And the guarantee comes in writing. That is why our customers in Dunstable, and across the four counties we cover, keep recommending us to their neighbours.

Why local roofers in Dunstable cost you less

A roofer who has to drive in from the other side of the county builds that time into the price, and is harder to get back if something needs a second look. Being based in Dunstable keeps our travel short and our diary flexible, so we can price sharply, get a survey booked quickly and come back without fuss. If you already have a quote from someone else, send it over: our price promise is to beat any written quote for the same scope of work.

Choosing roofers in Dunstable: five questions to ask

  • Is the guarantee in writing, and does it cover repairs? Ours does, on all work.
  • Are you fully insured, and will you risk assess the job before starting? We are, and we do.
  • Will I get a detailed written quote and a timetable? Yes, after a free survey.
  • Who will I deal with? A family business with over 25 years' experience, not a call centre.
  • Will you match a cheaper quote? We go further: we will beat any written quote for the same work.
