Real Feedback from Local Homeowners
We take genuine pride in every job, from replacing slipped slates and repointing chimneys to full warm-roof installations and EPDM rubber flat roofs.
Accurate Leak Diagnosis
We trace water ingress back to its true source—whether that is a cracked plain clay tile, perished underlay, degraded valley leadwork, or perishing mortar along the ridge line.
No Hard Selling
Jimmy Frankham personally assesses your roof. If a localized slate repair or ridge tile re-bedding cures the problem cleanly, we will never pressure you into an unnecessary full replacement.
Thames Valley Compliance
From Windsor's conservation guidelines under RBWM to Slough Borough Council building controls and Part L thermal insulation upgrades, all replacement works meet strict UK standards.
Our Roofing Standards in Pictures
High class roofing maintains a clean, well-organised work environment whether executing an emergency tarping operation, rebuilding brick chimney stacks, or laying seamless flat roof membranes.
Tiled Roof Stripping & Re-covering
Safe scaffolding, proper debris removal, and careful installation of modern breathable membrane and treated timber battens on semi-detached homes across Slough and Windsor.
Underlay & Eaves Restoration
Eliminating rotted eaves felts and damaged roof battens that let driving rain enter attic voids during heavy Thames Valley autumn storms.
GRP Fibreglass & EPDM Rubber
Durable, ponding-resistant coverings designed for kitchen extensions, dormer windows, and flat residential garages in Maidenhead and Datchet.
Why Datchet, Slough, and Windsor Residents Trust High class roofing
Unlike national subcontracting networks or sales-heavy roofing agencies, High class roofing is based right here in Datchet (SL3). When you call us, you speak directly with owner Jimmy Frankham, who oversees our projects on site from the initial diagnostic survey through to completion.
Genuine Technical Expertise
We know how Berkshire and Thames Valley properties age. From weathered lime mortar on Victorian red-brick stacks in Windsor to perished bitumen felt beneath 1930s interlocking tiles in Slough, our repairs address the fundamental structural vulnerability.
Milled Leadwork to British Standard
We dress Code 4 and Code 5 lead into raked brickwork mortar joints with proper copper clips and patination oil, never relying on silicone mastic or superficial tapes that peel away after one winter.
Clean, Considerate Site Operations
We handle Controlled Parking Zones (CPZs) in Windsor and Uxbridge, respect shared party-wall abutments, arrange skip permits cleanly with Slough or RBWM councils, and clear our magnetic sweeps daily for discarded nails.

Clear answers about our diagnostic process, pricing, and how we handle roof works across the Thames Valley.
How do I know if my roof leak is an emergency?
If water is steadily dripping into your living space, pooling above plasterboard ceilings, running down structural walls, or coming near electrical fixtures, it requires immediate attention. Our 24/7 callout service arrives quickly to make the roof safe with heavy-duty tarpaulins or emergency battening before returning on a dry day to perform permanent remedial repairs.
Do you charge for quotes and roof inspections?
No. Jimmy Frankham provides free, transparent site surveys and itemized written quotations without obligation. We inspect the roofline, take photographs of any failed lead, cracked mortar, or slipped slates, and explain exactly what work is needed so you can make an informed choice.
Can you repair a leaking roof valley without re-roofing the whole house?
Yes. Valley gutters frequently fail where lead has split or tile cuts have slipped over decades. We can carefully strip back the adjoining course of tiles, remove split lead, re-deck the valley board if necessary, and install new Code 4 or Code 5 leadwork before neatly re-bedding or dry-fixing the flanking tiles without disturbing the broader roof structure.
How do you manage parking and scaffolding permits in Windsor and Uxbridge?
Tight streets, terraced cottages, and Controlled Parking Zones (CPZs) are standard across Windsor Old Town and central Uxbridge. When scaffolding or roadside skips must occupy public highway or pavement space, we liaise with the relevant council (Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead, Slough Borough Council, or London Borough of Hillingdon) to obtain the necessary street permits and licences.
What flat roofing system do you recommend for an extension: EPDM or GRP?
Both systems outlast traditional bitumen felt. EPDM rubber is a flexible, joint-free single sheet excellent for larger residential extensions and porches. GRP fibreglass forms a seamless, hard-wearing rigid laminate that is ideal for complex roof shapes with skylights, parapet upstands, or areas that receive light foot maintenance. We evaluate your timber fall, upstands, and roof design to advise on the right solution.
