Quality roofing work you can see for yourself
Your roof is not something you want to second guess once the work is finished. We focus on solid workmanship and durable materials because recurring problems cost you more time and money. A properly assessed roof can also prevent future setbacks when you plan upgrades such as solar panels or other property improvements. That straightforward approach is a big part of why you call us for both urgent repairs and fixes and larger roofing jobs.
Conservatory Roof Conversion & Leak Investigation
Balby, Doncaster
Diagnosing the Real Cause of a Persistent Roof Leak
When this Doncaster homeowner contacted BeeSure Roofing, they had noticed water ingress appearing above the internal window head of their conservatory conversion. Unsure whether the issue was a leaking roof, failed flashing or something else entirely, they asked us to carry out a thorough inspection to identify the cause.
Following a detailed survey, we discovered the problem wasn't simply a leak - it was the result of an unsuitable roofing system that had been installed by a previous property owner.
The original conservatory had been converted with lightweight metal roof tiles designed for use on traditional pitched roofs. However, the roof pitch was far too shallow for this type of system, preventing rainwater from draining away effectively and creating the perfect conditions for long-term condensation.
Once the metal roof tiles were removed, the underlying problem became immediately clear. The underside of the roofing system was saturated with condensation, and years of trapped moisture had even allowed fungal growth to develop beneath the roof covering.
To provide a permanent solution, we stripped the roof back to the structural trusses, removing the existing metal roof tiles, roof boards and breathable membrane.
The roof was then rebuilt using:
-
New 18mm OSB roof decking
-
A high-performance EPDM rubber roofing system, specifically designed for low-pitch roofs
-
Replacement roof tiles sourced from another section of the property to ensure a neat, consistent finish where required
The result was a warm, watertight roofing system that eliminated the condensation issue and provided the homeowner with a roof appropriate for the property's design.
Having been pleased with our workmanship and honest advice, the customer later invited us back to carry out gutter cleaning as part of their ongoing property maintenance.
At BeeSure Roofing, we believe in identifying the cause of a problem - not simply treating the symptoms. By carrying out a detailed survey before recommending any work, we help homeowners invest in the right solution first time.

Complete Roof Replacement Following Solar Panel Survey
Dunscroft, Doncaster
Helping a Homeowner Make the Right Long-Term Decision
A homeowner in Dunscroft contacted BeeSure Roofing after arranging a solar panel quotation with Octopus Energy.
During their inspection, Octopus identified significant issues with the existing roof and advised that extensive repairs would be needed before solar panels could be installed safely.
Wanting an independent opinion, the customer contacted BeeSure Roofing for a free, no-obligation roof survey and quotation.
Following a comprehensive inspection, we carefully assessed both the condition of the roof and the report provided by Octopus Energy.
Rather than recommending just one solution, we provided the homeowner with two clear options:
-
A detailed quotation for the extensive repairs required to bring the existing roof up to standard.
-
A quotation for a complete new roof, allowing the customer to compare the long-term value of both options before making an informed decision.
Although one of the other quotations she received was slightly cheaper, the customer chose BeeSure Roofing because of Rory's extensive building and surveying background, together with our honest advice and thorough assessment of the property.
The Solution
The decision was made to carry out a complete roof replacement to provide a long-lasting solution before the installation of the new solar panel system.
The existing roof was stripped back to the roof trusses, removing all roof tiles, timber battens and roofing felt.
The new roofing system included:
-
Breathable roofing membrane throughout
-
New treated timber battens
-
Anthracite Grey Double Roman concrete roof tiles
-
New dry ridge system
-
New dry hip system
-
New dry valley system
As part of the project, one redundant chimney stack was carefully dismantled to below roof level. A second chimney stack remained in place because it formed part of a shared stack with a neighbouring local authority property. Instead, we carried out the necessary repairs to ensure it remained safe, weatherproof and structurally sound. Unlike older roofing methods that relied on sand and cement, the new dry fix systems are mechanically secured using purpose-designed clips and fixings.
This modern approach offers several important benefits:
-
Improved durability and weather resistance
-
Reduced maintenance
-
No cracked or loose mortar
-
Easier future repairs if ever required
-
Improved long-term safety by eliminating the risk of falling mortar
The Result
Once the roofing work was completed, Octopus Energy returned to inspect the property before installing the solar panel system.
The new roof passed inspection with flying colours, allowing the solar installation to proceed without delay.
The customer was so pleased with the quality of our workmanship, communication and professional advice that she later recommended BeeSure Roofing to her mother, who subsequently instructed us to rebuild a garage roof using an EPDM rubber roofing system.
At BeeSure Roofing, we believe that good roofing starts with honest advice. By taking the time to properly assess every property and explain all available options, we help homeowners make informed decisions that protect their homes for years to come.
