Newport is a compact Shropshire market town with a well-preserved Georgian and Victorian core. The High Street and surrounding streets retain much of their original period character, with Welsh slate and plain clay tile roofs that require the same care and material matching expertise as the historic properties in Shrewsbury’s town centre. We cover Newport and the TF10 area for all roofing services.
All services available across Newport and TF10 with free no-obligation surveys and quotes.

☎ Call 01743 537230 — Free QuoteNewport’s housing stock divides clearly between the period town centre, 1930s–1960s suburban development along St Mary’s Street and Hospital Road, and the modern private estates on the town’s northern and eastern fringes. The period core has Welsh slate and clay tile that demands care in matching and repair. The post-war and 1960s stock has the same nail sickness vulnerability common to this era across Shropshire.
The surrounding villages of Edgmond, Chetwynd Aston and Sambrook are within our coverage. Agricultural and rural properties in this part of East Shropshire frequently have larger, more complex roof structures with significant ridge, hip and valley work.
Lead flashing failure on Georgian chimney stacks in the town centre is the most common heritage repair we carry out in Newport. Concrete tile nail sickness is widespread in the 1960s housing off St Mary’s Street. Newport sits on slightly elevated ground with good westerly exposure — ridge tiles need inspection more regularly here than in more sheltered Shropshire locations.
"Lead flashing had failed on two chimney stacks on our Georgian property. Properly specified repair, matched the original lead weight, and the work was done neatly and quickly. Very satisfied."
"1960s detached with nail-sick concrete tiles on both main pitches. Full re-nail and re-fix rather than replacement — exactly the right recommendation and good value. Recommend."
"Complete guttering replacement on a 1930s semi. Quick, clean job and a fair price. They also spotted a couple of slipped tiles and sorted them at the same time. Great service."

Newport sits on the East Shropshire plain at relatively low altitude, giving it a more sheltered position than the western satellite towns. Exposure is primarily from the south-west. The town's slightly elevated position above the Strine Brook provides good natural drainage. Weather is milder and drier than the Shropshire hills towns.
An attractive Georgian market town centre with period commercial and residential properties, 1930s to 1960s residential development on the middle ring, and modern private estates on the outer edges. The town has a higher proportion of Georgian and early Victorian stock than most East Shropshire towns of equivalent size.
Lead flashing failure on Georgian chimney stacks, ridge tile mortar deterioration on period stock, and nail sickness on the 1960s to 1980s residential estates are the primary repair types. Conservation area properties in the town centre require matching materials — Welsh slate and appropriate lime mortar.
Newport's Georgian townscape is well-preserved and the local planning authority actively protects its character. Material choices on re-roofing and repair work in the town centre require prior consideration — we advise on this at every survey on potentially affected properties.
We survey every property physically before quoting — never from the ground or from photographs. If repair is the right answer we say so. We do not push replacements when they are not warranted, and we do not recommend repairs when replacement is the more economical decision over a five-year horizon.
Every quote is written, itemised and fixed before any work starts. No verbal estimates, no day-rate pricing, no additions once the job has begun without prior agreement. You know the exact cost before we lift a tile — and the price does not change unless the scope changes and you agree to it.
No subcontractors, no agency labour. The team that surveys your roof is the team that carries out the work. We have been building our reputation in Shropshire since 2003 by taking direct responsibility for every job — something a contractor who farms work to subcontractors cannot offer.
All re-roof and major repair work carries a written 10-year workmanship guarantee issued at job completion. We are fully insured with £5m public liability cover. NFRC registered. We have been trading in Shropshire for over 20 years — our guarantee means something because we will be here to honour it.
We cover the full Shropshire area from our Shrewsbury base, with no additional travel charge for any location within our coverage area. The same team, the same standards, and the same written 10-year guarantee apply on every job — whether we are working in a Victorian terrace in Belle Vue, a 1960s semi in Harlescott, a period villa in Church Stretton, or a modern estate in Telford.
Our coverage includes all Shrewsbury suburbs — Bayston Hill, Meole Brace, Monkmoor, Belle Vue, Harlescott, Copthorne, Radbrook and Kingsland — and all surrounding Shropshire towns including Telford, Oswestry, Whitchurch, Newport, Shifnal, Wem, Church Stretton and Market Drayton. We also cover the villages and rural properties between these centres across all SY and TF postcodes.
Free surveys are available across all of this coverage area with no call-out charge and no obligation to proceed. Call 01743 537230 to book.
Every job starts with a physical survey — not a quote over the phone, not an estimate from the ground. We access the roof, inspect defects and their causes, check for related issues in surrounding areas, and photograph the condition. The written fixed-price quote is issued the same day or the following morning. Survey visits are free across all Shropshire postcodes with no call-out charge and no obligation to proceed.
We do not use pressure tactics, do not offer day-of discounts to rush a decision, and do not manufacture urgency. If a job can wait two weeks safely we tell you. If it needs addressing immediately we explain exactly why. Every quote is written and itemised — no verbal estimates, no additions once work has started without prior agreement.
All prices are fixed before work starts. For repair jobs under £500, payment is due on completion. For larger jobs — re-roofs, full guttering replacements, chimney rebuilds — a deposit of 10 to 25 percent covers materials, with the balance on satisfactory completion. We never ask for full payment upfront on any job. We accept bank transfer and card. Full VAT receipts are issued at completion on all work.
Any contractor requiring full cash payment upfront, offering large on-the-spot discounts, or approaching you unsolicited at your door should be treated with caution. Legitimate roofing contractors do not operate this way. If you are unsure about a quote you have received, call us on 01743 537230 for an independent assessment.
No call-out fees. No obligation. Just an honest quote from a local Newport roofer.
