MP Roofing: The Roofing Company Chesham, Bucks Homeowners Actually Use

MP Roofing is a roofing company based in Chesham, Buckinghamshire (HP5), covering Chesham and a 10-mile radius that takes in Amersham, Great Missenden, Tring, Bovingdon, Berkhamsted, Chorleywood, Rickmansworth, Gerrards Cross, Wendover and Hemel Hempstead. It handles everything from a single slipped tile to a full re-roof, and gives free written quotes before any work starts. Pricing is fixed once scaffolding goes up, and the company offers 24/7 availability with a same-day response for active leaks, backed by 32+ years of hands-on roofing experience and £2m public liability cover.

What does MP Roofing actually do?

Most calls MP Roofing gets are for repairs rather than full re-roofs, things like a slipped tile, a piece of failed flashing, or a gutter that's dropped off its fall. The company also carries out complete re-roofing projects when that's genuinely what's needed. The core work covers seven areas:

• Slate roofing: new slate roofs, re-slating, and slate roof repair using natural Welsh, Spanish and reclaimed slate
• Tiled roofing: clay and concrete tiling, dry ridge systems, and re-bedding slipped or loose tiles
• Lead work: chimney flashings, valleys, box gutters and bay roofs, welded and dressed on site
• Guttering: replacement, repairs and clearing in cast iron, aluminium and uPVC
• Flat roofing: GRP fibreglass, EPDM rubber and torch-on felt for extensions, garages and balconies
• uPVC fascias and soffits: full fascia, soffit and bargeboard replacement, plus cladding and eaves ventilation
• Moss removal: scraped and soft-washed, never pressure washed, with gutters cleared afterwards

On top of this, MP Roofing runs a dedicated response for leaks and storm damage, with same-day assessment available around the clock.

Is MP Roofing really local to Chesham, or just another firm listing towns it doesn't actually work in?

This is a fair question. Plenty of roofing websites list dozens of towns with no real presence in any of them. MP Roofing is based in Chesham (HP5) and defines its coverage as a strict 10-mile radius, not a vague regional claim. That radius includes Chesham Bois, Ley Hill, Hyde Heath, Amersham, Ashley Green, Latimer & Chenies, Little Chalfont, Bovingdon, Great Missenden, Berkhamsted, Chalfont St Giles, Sarratt, Chorleywood, Holmer Green, Prestwood, Kings Langley, Tring, Beaconsfield, Hemel Hempstead, Wendover, Penn & Tylers Green, Chalfont St Peter, Rickmansworth, High Wycombe, Croxley Green, Abbots Langley, Gerrards Cross and Watford. Enquiries from just outside that radius are also welcomed.

The proof isn't just a list of towns, it's completed jobs in them: a slate re-roof in Great Missenden, a clay plain tile re-roof in Bovingdon, a lead flat roof in Amersham, moss removal in Chesham Bois, a GRP fibreglass garage roof in Amersham, and a clay plain tile re-roof in Tring. That's a working roofing company Chesham Bucks residents can point to, not a listing page with no track record.

Will the quote actually hold once scaffolding is up?

A common worry with roofers is a low initial figure that balloons once work starts and something is "found". MP Roofing gives fixed, itemised written quotes before any work begins, and that price doesn't move once scaffolding is up unless new issues are found and agreed with the customer first. Nothing changes behind your back.

Scaffold and skip hire are also built into the quoted price from the outset rather than added afterwards as surprise extras. When the job's done, the site is cleared and old materials are taken away, so there's no separate charge sprung on you at the end either. The initial visit and the written quote itself are free on every job.

What happens if I'm not home or a job overruns?

MP Roofing's stated position is straightforward: it turns up when it said it would. If a prior job overruns and causes a delay, the commitment is a phone call to let you know, not silence and a missed appointment. That matters most on jobs where scaffolding, deliveries or access need coordinating around your day, and it's one of the more common complaints homeowners have about tradespeople generally, so it's worth knowing upfront how communication is handled.

Is my leak actually an emergency, or could it wait?

Not every leak needs fixing that afternoon, and not every roofer will tell you that honestly. MP Roofing offers 24/7 availability with a same-day response assessment for active leaks and storm damage, but the point of that response is an honest answer, not an automatic upsell. If a leak genuinely needs same-day attention, you'll be told that. If it can safely wait for a scheduled visit or dry weather, you'll be told that too. This applies whether it's an emergency roof repair in Chesham itself, a leaking roof repair in Amersham, or storm damage roof repair after high winds have lifted tiles anywhere across the coverage area.

What insurance cover is in place if something goes wrong?

MP Roofing carries £2m public liability insurance, which applies across every job regardless of size, from a single lead flashing repair in Chesham to a full slate re-roof. This is the level of cover stated by the business; no other insurance or warranty claims should be assumed beyond this figure.

Repair or full re-roof: how do you know which one you actually need?

One of the more common fears homeowners have is being pushed towards a full re-roof when the real problem is a straightforward, cheaper repair. MP Roofing's stated approach is the opposite: most call-outs turn out to be repairs, such as a slipped tile, a failed flashing joint, or guttering that's come away from its fall, rather than jobs needing a full re-roof. A full re-roof only gets recommended where the underlying condition of the roof genuinely warrants it, for example widespread slipped tiles, failing felt, or lead work that's beyond a patch repair. The free written quote and initial visit exist specifically so this assessment happens before you commit to anything, not after.

Where does MP Roofing cover across Bucks and west Hertfordshire?

If you've searched for a "roofer near me" in HP5, or specifically for a roofer in Chorleywood or a roofer in Gerrards Cross, MP Roofing's coverage runs the full 10-mile radius from its Chesham base. That spans roof repairs in Great Missenden and Hemel Hempstead, re-roofing in Bovingdon, roof repair in Wendover, and guttering repairs in Berkhamsted, alongside the core Chesham area itself. If your address sits just outside the stated radius, enquiries are still welcomed, it's worth asking directly.

FAQ

Does MP Roofing only do full re-roofs, or small repairs too?

Most jobs MP Roofing carries out are repairs rather than full re-roofs, things like a slipped tile, failed flashing, or guttering that's come off its fall. Full re-roofing is also carried out where the roof's condition genuinely needs it, but the starting point is an honest assessment of what's actually required, not an automatic push towards the bigger job.

How quickly can someone come out for a leaking roof in Chesham or Amersham?

MP Roofing offers 24/7 availability with a same-day response assessment for active leaks and storm damage. That means you'll get a straight answer on whether the issue needs attention that day or can safely wait, rather than an assumption either way.

Will I be charged extra for scaffolding or skip hire partway through the job?

No. Scaffold and skip costs are included in the quoted price from the outset, not added on afterwards. The written quote you receive before work starts covers this, and the price doesn't change once scaffolding is up unless new issues are found and agreed with you first.

Does MP Roofing cover my town if I'm outside the main 29 listed?

The stated coverage area is Chesham plus a 10-mile radius, spanning towns including Amersham, Great Missenden, Tring, Bovingdon, Berkhamsted, Chorleywood, Rickmansworth, Gerrards Cross, Watford and Hemel Hempstead. Enquiries from just outside this radius are also invited, so it's worth getting in touch to check.

What insurance does MP Roofing carry?

MP Roofing holds £2m public liability insurance, which applies across all job types and sizes, from a single guttering repair through to a full slate or tiled re-roof.
