We know old roofs and newer systems
Our background in roofing goes back generations. That matters when you're dealing with anything from a simple leak to a full replacement.
Fast help when water gets in
We offer emergency call-outs for urgent repair work. You can act quickly before a bad patch turns into damage inside your property.
Work that suits homes and commercial sites
We take on small renovations and larger commercial ventures. That gives you a team used to adapting the job to the building in front of us.
Flat roof work that deals with problems properly
Flat roofs can fail in ways that start small and turn expensive fast, from a stubborn drip to blistering that spreads across the surface. We carry out flat roof repairs and installations using single-ply roofing welded systems, giving you a practical option for both new work and problem roofs. Leaks, holes and damaged flashings all need careful attention if you want to stop water getting any further into your property.
We handle the work with a straightforward approach that focuses on what your roof actually needs. You'll also have the reassurance of dealing with Ranson Roofing & Building Ltd, a family firm with roots in roofing. When your roof needs more than a patch and a shrug, we get stuck in and sort it properly.


A sensible choice for repairs and new flat roofs
Our single-ply welded system creates sealed joins that are designed to stand up to the weather better than tired, failing coverings. If you've noticed bubbling, soft spots or repeated damp patches indoors, we'll assess the roof condition and deal with the fault at its source.
Emergency call-outs are available for repair work, which matters when a sudden leak is making a mess of your day. We work on everything from smaller renovation jobs to larger commercial roofing projects, so the scale of the work doesn't faze us. Around Ferryhill and the wider Durham area, Ranson Roofing & Building Ltd is known for roofing work backed by 5-star Google reviews.

Lynda Ramsay, Google
Have used this company twice now; both times arrived when they said the lads worked hard and efficiently whilst here and took their debris with them. Very pleased with the work done. Very polite and courteous; would definitely use them again.
Why flat roof upkeep matters
A sound flat roof helps protect ceilings, insulation and interior finishes from long-term water damage. Quick action on early signs like blistering or failed flashings can stop a minor fault becoming a much bigger repair. Modern flat roofing systems can also give you a cleaner, neater finish that suits extensions, garages and commercial buildings. We make sure the work is explained clearly, so you know what is happening above your head and why it matters.
