Lancaster · Morecambe · North West
Slate, tile, flat roofs and leadwork — along with guttering, fascias, soffits and general building. Careful work, a written quote before anything starts, and a tidy site when it’s finished.
What we do
New roofs, reroofs and repairs in natural slate, clay and concrete tile, and flat systems in EPDM, GRP and torch-on felt. That includes the parts nobody sees from the pavement — ridges, valleys, verges, chimney flashings, back gutters and lead soakers.
Clearing, repair and replacement of gutters, downpipes, fascias and soffits in cast iron, aluminium and uPVC. Regular clearing can be arranged for landlords and larger properties.
Brickwork and stonework, repointing, rendering, small structural repairs and alterations. Trusted trades brought in where a job needs them.

Why the name
diligentia
Latin — careful attention
Diligentia comes from diligere — to value something, to hold it in regard. The care came from the caring. That is a fair description of the difference between a roof that lasts thirty years and one that lasts eight.
Most roofing failures aren’t dramatic. They are a flashing dressed badly, a nail short of the spec, a valley that was cheaper to bodge than to strip. None of it shows on the day. All of it shows in February.
