Gilesgate Building & Roofing

We are a family run building firm excelling in extensions, refurbishments, property repair, conversions and roofing. Established in 1980, we continue to be held in high regard for our reliability and high-quality workmanship, which is well known throughout the region. Our honest, reliable, skilled tradespeople take the utmost pride in their work to ensure that every job is finished to the highest possible standard. We appreciate that when completing your building work, we are not working on a building site but in your home, and we treat it as respectfully as we would our own.

Extending your home can dramatically improve its market value - not to mention improving your quality of life significantly. We can plan, design and project-manage the entire build ensuring that the end result is professionally constructed, compliant with the relevant regulations and in keeping with your requests and requirements. Converting a loft, garage, basement or barn will turn what was previously a redundant space into a room that's not just useful but luxurious. Loft conversion options include hip-to-gable, dormer and mansard conversions.

Houses age, just like everything else! Whether it's your windows and doors or your floors, we can repair, restore and replace them using quality materials, with all work completed in line with your budget. Security should be a major concern for anyone, whether they're a local business, a landlord or a homeowner. But so is appearance. We provide a variety of made-to-measure uPVC windows and doors, which are guaranteed to be tough, durable, secure and energy-efficient. Other options include composite doors, which are even more resilient, and timber-framed windows for those who wish to retain the rustic or traditional feel of their property.

Problems with your roof tend to filter down to other areas of your property, so if you have noticed a leak, there are missing tiles or slates, the gutters are visibly damaged or blocked up, or your chimney is starting to develop a worrying lean, we recommend you give us a call sooner rather than later. Flat roofs make great coverings for extensions, bay windows and commercial buildings, but once they've reached the end of their lifespan, problems can begin to materialise. Whilst we are proficient in traditional felt roofing, we recommend fibreglass (GRP) for increased durability, longevity and reduced maintenance.
