20+ Roofers in Cardiff

If you're looking for a roofer in Cardiff, you'll want someone who knows the city's particular building stock and local rules. Cardiff's housing ranges from Victorian terraces in Pontcanna and Cathedral Road through to post-war semis in suburbs like Fairwater, Caerau, and Llandaff, and each type of roof has its own needs. The city's conservation areas, which include Pontcanna, Cathedral Road, and Roath Park, have extra planning requirements that your roofer needs to understand. Most roofing work in these neighbourhoods requires Listed Building Consent or Article 4 Direction approval before you start, so it's essential to pick someone familiar with Cardiff Council's planning portal at planning.cardiff.gov.uk. The council itself, Cardiff Council, oversees building standards across all wards from Rumney and St Mellons in the east through to Ely and the city centre. A good local roofer will know how to navigate these rules and save you time on paperwork. Beyond planning, Cardiff's weather means your roof takes a battering—slate and tile pitched roofs are common in older properties, while flatter roofs on extensions and modern builds need proper installation in GRP, EPDM, or felt to avoid leaks. Many Cardiff homes also need chimney repairs and re-pointing, lead flashing replacement, and gutter work; if you've got moss growing on your roof or damage from storms, that's another area where a local tradesperson makes a real difference. Whether you're in Canton, Llanrumney, Trowbridge, or Old St Mellons, the same principle applies: you want a roofer who understands both the older conservation-area properties and the newer builds, who knows when to get planning sign-off, and who can handle everything from full pitched roof replacement right through to skylight fitting and insulation upgrades. When you're getting quotes, make sure they're clear about timelines, materials, and any planning approvals needed—especially if your property is in a protected area. A roofer who's worked in Cardiff for years will spot issues that someone new to the city might miss, and they'll know the best suppliers and waste routes for the area. The traders listed here have been vetted for their experience across Cardiff's postcodes and their understanding of local building standards.
