Roofing Contractors in Wigtown
Roof repairs and re-roofing for Wigtown and the Machars, exposed low-lying country 47 miles from Dumfries.
Roofing in Wigtown
Wigtown stands above the bay on flat, open country, and there's very little in the Machars to break the wind. Exposure is the constant here: wind gets under the edges of a covering, lifts tiles and slates at verges and ridges, and drives rain horizontally into junctions that would never leak in a sheltered street. Edge fixing and verge detail matter more on these properties than almost anything else.
The town itself has a good stock of older stone buildings around the square, including the bookshops it's known for, along with farms and rural properties spread across the Machars. We cover all of it for slate and tile repairs, re-roofing, guttering, chimney and lead work and agricultural roofing on the farms.

Why choose RML Roofing in Wigtown
A roof only gets looked at properly when something has already gone wrong, and most of what separates a repair that lasts twenty years from one that fails next winter is invisible from the ground. That is why choosing the right roofer matters more than the quote. Here is what you get from us on every job we take on in Wigtown.
Public liability insured
We hold public liability insurance for the work we carry out, and we're happy to show you a copy of our certificate before any work begins.
Honest advice, with photos
We get up on the roof, find the actual cause and show you photos of what we've found. If a repair will do the job, we won't sell you a new roof.
Fixed price, agreed upfront
A clear written quote before any work starts. The price we agree is the price you pay, and if anything unexpected comes up, we’ll talk to you before any extra work is done.
10-year guarantee
From a single slipped slate to a full re-roof, all our roofing work comes with a 10-year workmanship guarantee, explained before we start.

Questions about roofing in Wigtown
Usually because the edges aren't fixed for the exposure. Wind gets under a verge or a ridge and works from there. Re-fixing those edges to a proper spec, rather than replacing the tiles that blew off, is what stops it happening again.
Yes, agricultural roofing throughout the Machars is part of our coverage, including re-sheeting, ridge and flashing work and box gutters.
Yes, although at 47 miles it's a longer run, so visits are booked in for a set day rather than dropped in on. We quote and carry out the work the same way as anywhere else we cover.
