Clackmannanshire's County Town
Alloa is the largest town in Clackmannanshire and its housing spans a wider range than the villages around it — which means the roofing work varies more here than anywhere else in the county.
Through the older parts of town there is Victorian sandstone property built through Alloa’s brewing, glassmaking and shipping years — slate roofs, stone chimney stacks, and in the terraced streets, continuous roof runs and shared stacks between properties.
Around it sit substantial interwar and post-war estates, largely concrete tile, much of which is now at the age where the roof as a system needs renewal even where the tiles themselves still look serviceable from the ground.
Terraced roofing
On Alloa’s older terraced streets the same considerations come up repeatedly. Water entering at one point can appear several properties along. Chimney stacks are often shared between two houses and need doing as a whole rather than in half. Gutter runs span several properties, and one sagging section backs water up into a neighbour’s wall.
We will tell you where any of that applies before work starts rather than discovering it halfway through.
Estate housing at end of life
On the concrete tile estates the failure pattern is consistent: mortar bedding at ridges and verges breaks down first, underfelt from the original build has usually gone brittle and torn, and individual tiles crack while the majority still look sound.
The point most people miss is that the tiles are rarely the whole story. A roof can look perfectly serviceable from the pavement while the system beneath it has reached the end of its working life — and that is normally why a roof has started leaking when nothing appears broken.

Roofers in Alloa FAQs
Do you cover the whole of Clackmannanshire?
Yes — Alloa, Sauchie, Tullibody, Clackmannan, the Hillfoots villages and the surrounding area
My roof looks fine but it is leaking. How?
Very commonly the failure is in the system rather than the covering — perished underfelt, failed mortar bedding at ridge or verge, or a lead detail that has lifted. From the ground everything looks intact because the problem is in the parts you cannot see
Should I repair or replace?
It depends on the condition of the whole roof rather than the individual faults. Isolated damage with sound bedding and intact felt is a repair; widespread deterioration is a re-roof, and repeated patching on a roof in that condition is money spent delaying the inevitable. The free inspection establishes which.
Who pays for a shared chimney stack?
That comes from your title deeds. We can tell you what the stack needs and what it costs to put right; the apportionment between owners is a matter for the deeds.
What is a dry-fix system?
Ridge and verge fixed mechanically rather than bedded in mortar. Mortar cracks and washes out over time; dry-fix does not, so it needs far less maintenance across the life of the roof. We often specify it on re-roofing work.
