Roofing Specialists in Lowestoft & Suffolk

We're Hogdens Roofs, trading as Lowestoft Roofers, and we've been repairing, replacing and maintaining roofs across Lowestoft and the surrounding Suffolk coast for years. Our team knows the local housing stock well — from the older terraced properties around the town centre to the exposed bungalows and semis out towards Oulton Broad and Kessingland. When you call us, you speak to someone who actually works on the roofs, not a call handler reading from a script.

How it works

Four steps, no surprises.

The quote you get is the price you pay. We don't pad jobs with discoveries halfway through — if something unexpected comes up, we talk to you first.

1

Free survey & quote

We come out, look at the whole roof — not just what you called about — and give you an itemised written quote. No pressure, no obligation.

2

Fixed date confirmed

We agree a start date that works for you. You get a daily schedule so you know who's arriving and what's happening each day.

3

The work gets done

Our own crew — no subbies — do the work to the quoted spec. We tidy up each evening and update you on progress.

4

Sign-off & guarantee

You walk round with us, raise anything that needs attention, and we don't leave until you're happy. Your 10-year guarantee arrives by post.

What customers say

People trust us with their most important asset.

"Had a section of the felt on my flat garage roof blister and lift after last winter's frost. Lowestoft Roofers came out within two days to have a look and gave me a straight quote — no upselling to a full replacement when a repair was the right call. The work was done in a single morning and the area has stayed watertight through some heavy rain since. Refreshing to deal with a firm that tells you what you actually need."

"My 1930s semi had a ridge tile come loose and I was worried about water getting into the chimney stack. They were on the roof the same week, re-bedded the ridge tiles and pointed the stack while they were up there, which saved me calling someone out again separately. The scaffolding was up and down in a day and they cleared everything from the drive before they left. Solid, no-fuss work."

"We had a full re-roof done on our detached house — around 90 square metres of concrete interlocking tiles stripped and replaced with new Welsh slate. The crew worked across three days and kept us updated each afternoon on where they'd got to. There was a rotten section of fascia board uncovered during the strip that they sorted out before laying the underlay, which I appreciated rather than them just covering it over. Price came in at £6,800 all in, which matched the quote exactly."

Most standard roof repairs in Lowestoft fall between £150 and £600. Replacing a handful of broken tiles is at the lower end, while re-bedding a full ridge line or replacing valley lead work sits at the higher end. We provide a written quote after inspection so there are no surprises.
A new roof on a typical Lowestoft semi-detached house costs between £6,000 and £12,000, fully installed including scaffold and materials. An extension or single-garage roof starts from around £1,500–£3,000. We provide a fully itemised written quote after measuring up on site.
If more than 20–25% of your tiles are cracked, slipped, or porous, the underfelt is visibly breaking down, or you've had repeated leaks in different areas over the past few years, replacement is usually more cost-effective. We'll give you an honest assessment during a free survey — we won't recommend replacement if repairs will genuinely do the job.
GRP fibreglass flat roofing in Lowestoft typically costs £70–£110 per square metre fully installed. EPDM rubber membrane sits at £60–£90 per square metre. A typical 20m² rear extension roof would cost roughly £1,400–£2,200 depending on the system chosen and any decking repairs needed.
A full replacement on a Lowestoft semi-detached house typically costs £900–£2,000 for uPVC fascias, soffits, and guttering. Detached properties or those with more complex rooflines will be at the higher end. We provide a free written quote after measuring around the property.
Chimney repointing and lead flashing replacement in Lowestoft typically costs £400–£1,200 depending on access, stack height, and extent of work. Replacing flaunching and a chimney pot can add £150–£350. We always provide a written quote before starting, and the price includes scaffold where required.
We aim to be on site within three to four hours for emergency call-outs across Lowestoft and the immediate surrounding area. We're available seven days a week including bank holidays. Call our emergency line directly rather than submitting an online enquiry for the fastest response.
For non-emergency leaks we typically carry out an inspection within 24–48 hours and can usually complete the repair on the same visit or return within a few days. If you have active water ingress causing damage inside your home, call us and we'll treat it as an emergency call-out.
