Why DLT

A roof you don’t have to think about again.

Most people call a roofer once and hope they never have to again. We build for that — the right materials, detailed properly, and a written guarantee that stands behind the work.

  • A workmanship guarantee, in writing

    Ten to twenty-five years on a re-roof, depending on the materials and system we use. The term is written into your quote before you commit — and if something's ever not right, we aim to be out to look within two working days.

    How the guarantee works
  • Over 20 years on the tools

    DLT started out in 2018, but the team behind it brings more than 20 years of hands-on trade experience to every job.

  • Certified and accountable

    NFRC certified and a Which? Trusted Trader. Fully licensed, insured and DBS-checked, using high-specification, tried-and-tested materials throughout.

  • Heritage & conservation specialists

    Listed-building and conservation re-roofing handled properly — including ecology surveys and bat-compliant detailing many roofers won't take on.

Featured project

A heritage slate roof, restored stack by stack.

A large period stone house with a run of original chimney stacks and a roof well past patching. Follow it from the first scaffold board to the finished natural-slate roof.

Overhead drone view of the property's original natural-slate roof before restoration — weathered, moss-darkened slates with worn lead flashing running along the valleys and around the stone chimney stacks, and a skip on the terrace below.Scaffolding being raised against the stone gable at the start of the job, with the aged, moss-flecked slate roof still in place in the foreground and a DLT Roofing van parked on the driveway below.The period stone house fully scaffolded mid-project, with three roofers working along the boards beneath a run of tall stone chimney stacks and the slate roof partly stripped back.Overhead view of the finished roof: uniform newly laid natural slate across the main pitches, crisp new lead work in the valleys and freshly fitted rooflights, with the stone chimney stacks retained.The completed restoration in sunlight — the full natural-slate roof relaid across the period stone house, its original stone chimney stacks kept in place, framed by mature trees and lawns.
