About ATS Roofing & Building
ATS Roofing & Building is a roofing contractor working across Ipswich and the wider Suffolk area. The team provides new roofs, re-roofing, repairs, flat-roof work, skylights and roofline services for homes and properties of all ages, from Victorian terraces in Ipswich to timber-framed cottages in rural Suffolk.
A local roofing contractor built on honest assessment and careful work
ATS Roofing & Building was founded on a simple principle: assess the roof properly, explain the options in plain English, and carry out the work to a standard that lasts. That principle has not changed. Whether the job is a slipped tile on a suburban semi in Ipswich, a complete re-roof on a Suffolk farmhouse, or a flat roof replacement on a period extension, the approach is the same - understand the roof, specify the right solution, and execute it carefully.
The housing stock across Ipswich and Suffolk is diverse, and that diversity shapes the way ATS works. Victorian and Edwardian terraces around central Ipswich have chimney stacks, slate roofs and lead details that need a different approach from the concrete interlocking tiles on a post-war estate in Kesgrave. Timber-framed cottages in Framlingham and Woodbridge demand an understanding of traditional materials and detailing, while coastal properties in Felixstowe and Aldeburgh face accelerated weathering from salt-laden winds. ATS has experience across all of these property types, and the specification is always driven by what the property actually needs.
The team covers the full range of roofing work - from chimney repointing and gutter repairs to complete new roof installations and tiled conservatory roof replacements. This means a customer with multiple roofing issues - a leaking chimney, a few slipped tiles, and a gutter that overflows - can have all the work handled by one team rather than coordinating multiple contractors.
Assess first. Recommend honestly. Finish carefully.
Roofing work should begin with a proper look at the roof, not a rushed assumption. ATS assesses the condition of the existing roof, explains the options in plain English and recommends work that suits the property. Whether the job is a localised repair, a complete re-roof or new roofline components, the focus stays on sound preparation, durable materials and a neat finish.
Customers deal with the team directly throughout the project, from the first conversation to the final handover. The proposed work, materials and timing are set out clearly before any work begins, so there are no surprises along the way. If a repair is the right call, ATS will say so - even if a re-roof would be a bigger job. The recommendation is driven by what the roof needs, not by what is most profitable.
Four principles behind every project
Assess before recommending
Every roof is inspected on its own condition before any work is proposed. No assumptions, no generic templates - just an honest assessment of what the roof actually needs.
Clear scope and pricing
The proposed work, materials, timing and cost are set out in a written quotation before the job starts. No vague estimates, no surprise costs partway through.
Quality-focused workmanship
Sound preparation, durable materials and careful detailing underpin every roof. The details - flashings, valleys, ventilation, ridges - are where a roof succeeds or fails.
Direct, accountable contact
You deal with the team directly throughout the project, from the first phone call to the final handover. No account managers, no layers of subcontractors.
A joined-up roofing service
ATS provides a complete range of roofing and roofline services, so whether you need a new roof, a localised repair or new fascias and soffits, the work can be handled by one team. Each service has its own dedicated page with practical information about the process, materials and what to expect.

Coastal properties face accelerated weathering from salt-laden winds, making regular inspection and timely repairs particularly important. Rural properties across Suffolk often have complex roof geometries with multiple valleys, chimneys and abutments that benefit from a joined-up service. Urban properties in Ipswich range from Victorian terraces with slate roofs to modern estates with concrete interlocking tiles - each with its own common failure points and appropriate repair strategies.
