Ridge, Fascia & Guttering Repairs in the Highlands & Islands
Loose ridge tiles and tired roofline boards can let weather in. As a local ridges and roofline company, we inspect, re-bed or upgrade ridges, and repair or replace fascias, soffits and guttering. RWS Roofing is based in Buckie and covers the Highlands & Islands and nearby areas including Aviemore, Dingwall, Tain.

Ridges & Roofline for the Highlands & Islands homes
Highland and island roofs face some of the harshest weather in the UK — Atlantic gales, horizontal rain and salt spray. Good fixings, sound flashing and well-bedded ridges matter even more here. The edges of the roof take the worst of it — loose ridge tiles, tired fascias and soffits, and gutters that overflow. We re-bed or fit dry ridge systems and renew roofline boards and guttering.
Traditional slate, corrugated sheeting on older crofts, modern tiles and flat roofs on extensions are all common, and we assess each one on its own terms.
What we cover
- Ridge inspection and re-bedding
- Dry ridge upgrades
- Fascia and soffit repairs and replacement
- Gutter repairs, realignment and replacement
Signs to look out for
- Loose or cracked ridge tiles
- Mortar falling from the ridge
- Rotten or damaged fascias and soffits
- Overflowing or leaking gutters
- Birds getting into the roof space at the eaves
How we work
We inspect the ridge and roofline, re-bed or upgrade ridges where needed, and repair or replace fascias, soffits and guttering — from a single leaking joint to a full roofline renewal. Where a ridge is bedded in mortar that keeps failing, we can talk through a dry ridge upgrade as an alternative. As a ridges and roofline company working across Moray, Inverness and the Highlands, we see every day what the weather does to the edges of a roof.
What affects the cost
- The length of ridge or roofline involved
- Whether ridges are re-bedded or upgraded to dry ridge
- The condition of existing fascias and soffits
- Access around the property
