Here at AJ Scutchings & Son, we’ve been working across Stevenage and nearby areas for over 35 years. We’re a local roofing company in Stevenage and most of our work comes from word of mouth. People know us, and they know how we work.
We’ve spent decades working on homes and commercial buildings across Hertfordshire. That time matters. We know the local housing styles, how roofs age here, and what usually goes wrong first. Some houses are older and need careful work. Others are newer but still get problems from weather and poor drainage. We deal with both.
Our team handles roofing and guttering work properly and without fuss. We take care with the details and don’t rush jobs just to get them done.
We’re a family-run business and always have been. We don’t subcontract work out to people you’ve never met. The same team you speak to is the team that turns up and does the job.
All work is carried out to British Standards and we use materials that are proven to last. Some jobs take longer than expected and that’s fine. We’d rather take the time and do it once than come back to fix shortcuts.
Roofs don’t usually fail all at once. They wear down bit by bit. Tiles slip. Mortar cracks. Small leaks start and get worse.
Our roof restoration work covers inspections, tile repairs, re-pointing, re-flashing and fixing issues that are often missed. If your roof looks tired or is letting water in, we can bring it back to a solid working state without replacing more than needed.
Lead flashing protects the weak points of a roof. Chimneys, valleys, joints and dormers all rely on it.
We carry out lead flashing repairs and installations using traditional methods that still work best. Our lead flashing work is shaped to suit the building and fitted to handle long-term weather exposure. It does its job quietly and properly.
Aluminium guttering is a good option for many Stevenage homes. It lasts longer than plastic and needs less looking after.
We install systems that suit the building rather than forcing a standard fit. Our aluminium guttering installations use trusted products like Marley Alutec and are designed to drain well and stay looking tidy over time.
Older and period properties often work best with cast iron. It looks right and it lasts.
We supply and install cast iron systems from Saint-Gobain, the only UK manufacturer with third-party accreditation. Our cast iron guttering work is fitted with care and attention to detail so it matches the character of the building and performs as it should.

Stevenage has a mix of housing. Old Town properties sit not far from post-war estates and newer developments. Each one has its own quirks.
We’ve worked on all of them. That experience helps when giving advice or deciding how far work needs to go. We use materials that meet current standards and make sure the roof or guttering system is built to last, not just patched up.
If you’re based in Stevenage and need help with your roof or guttering, give us a call on 07708506553. We’re straightforward and easy to deal with. No pressure, no overcomplicated advice.
Whether it’s a full roof restoration or a smaller repair, we’ll explain what needs doing and why. Quotes are clear and there’s no obligation. The aim is simple. Do the work properly and leave you with something that holds up for years.
