This guide explains the general roofing service. For a property-specific enquiry, choose your town in the coverage section below to see the local service page and its enquiry form. Carter LS is based in Birmingham and manages work carried out by specialist subcontractors.
Start with the roof problem, then agree the work
A missing tile, persistent leak or ageing flat roof needs the right assessment before a price can be meaningful. Tell us what you have noticed, how long it has been happening and whether any previous repairs have been made.
Carter LS manages roofing projects in Birmingham and the wider West Midlands using specialist subcontractors. We coordinate the assessment and proposed work, explain the quote and keep you informed about the programme.
Clear scope for repairs and replacements
The written quote should identify the work and materials included, access arrangements, waste removal and any exclusions. If an issue becomes visible only after work begins, we discuss the findings and agree any additional work before proceeding.
Request a roofing survey with your property location and the issue you need help with. You can also browse the areas we cover.

Roofing work we can arrange
Roof condition assessment
A roofing specialist assesses the reported problem and accessible condition to establish the proposed work. Safe access requirements are confirmed in advance.
Tile and slate repairs
Localised damage, displaced coverings and related defects can be assessed for a defined repair rather than assuming a complete replacement is required.
Leak investigation
Tell us where and when water appears. The proposed repair is based on assessment of the likely entry point and the surrounding roof details.
Roof replacement
For a replacement, the quote sets out the agreed covering, associated work, access arrangements and waste removal.
Flat roofing
Flat roof repairs and replacement options are assessed with the appropriate specialist, with the proposed system and scope explained before work begins.
Associated roofline work
Mention concerns with gutters, flashing, fascias or soffits so they can be considered alongside the main roofing work.
How it works
Visit. Price. Build.
We price nothing until we have stood on site and seen the job.
Free site survey
We come out, measure up and listen to what you want from the space. No charge and no pressure to go ahead.
Fixed written quote
An itemised quote in writing. The figure we agree before work starts is the figure on the final invoice.
Build and handover
One point of contact through the job, a site left tidy every evening, and a full walkthrough at handover.
Questions
Questions, answered straight
How much do roof repairs cost in Birmingham?
The price depends on the defect, the roof type, access and the extent of the work. We arrange an initial free quoting survey and explain any specialist access or further investigation costs before you agree to them.
Does a roof leak mean I need a new roof?
Not necessarily. The roofing specialist needs to assess the cause and condition before recommending a repair or replacement. We explain the proposed scope in your quote.
Do you arrange flat roof work?
Yes. Tell us about the existing roof and the problem so we can arrange the appropriate specialist assessment and discuss repair or replacement options.
Who carries out the roofing work?
Specialist roofing subcontractors carry out the work. Carter LS coordinates the project, agreed scope and communication, with one point of contact for you.
How soon can you look at my roof?
Contact us with your location and a description of the issue. We confirm availability and access requirements before booking; timing depends on the job, weather and specialist availability.
