Marley are the leading UK roof tile and pitched roof system supplier in 2025, and their brand continues to grow.
Founded in 1924 by Owen Aisher on the Isle of Wight, Marley began producing concrete roof tiles in a converted cowshed in Kent. Aisher’s pioneering use of early pressing machinery helped establish concrete tiles as a viable alternative to slate in the UK.
In the 1930s, Marley added factories at Leighton Buzzard, Storrington, Aveley, Sevenoaks, Burton-on-Trent, and Poole, expanding annual production to nearly 195 million tiles before WWII see more of their history on their website www.marley.co.uk.

Professional Roof Inspection Glasgow
Before we quote you or install your new roof, we complete a detailed roof inspection.
A professional roof inspection is a vital first step before installing your new roof, ensuring that all underlying issues are identified and addressed, especially any structural issues.
One of our experienced roofers will assess the condition of your existing roof structure, checking for signs of water damage, rot, sagging, or compromised timbers. They’ll also evaluate the insulation, ventilation, and flashing to determine if other upgrades are needed. This thorough assessment helps prevent costly surprises after your installation and ensures your new roof will be structurally sound, energy efficient, and compliant with building regulations.
Signs Your House Needs a Roof Replacement
In the table below, are some key signs your Glasgow home may be due a roof replacement:
Age of Your Roof
First on the list is the most obvious one the age of your roof, most roofs last between 20 to 30 years, depending on the material. If your homes roof is approaching or past that range, it may be time to replace it even if there are no obvious faults or repair issues.
Frequent Leaks
Recurring leaks or water stains on ceilings and walls are a strong indicator of roof failure. Multiple leaks often mean the structure or membrane is no longer effective.
Missing or Damaged Tiles
Cracked, curled, broken, or missing tiles or shingles can compromise the roof’s waterproof layer and allow water to seep through.
Sagging Roofline
A visibly sagging or dipping roofline can point to structural issues such as rotting timbers or prolonged water damage, requiring urgent attention.
Moss, Algae, or Mould Growth
Excessive moss or dark streaks can trap moisture and accelerate deterioration of the roofing material, particularly in shaded or damp areas.
Granules in Gutters
For asphalt shingles, a buildup of granules in the gutters means the tiles are wearing out, reducing their ability to protect against UV and water.
Higher Energy Bills
A failing roof can let heat escape or drafts enter, increasing your heating and cooling costs, often a sign of poor insulation or ventilation caused by roof issues.
Daylight Through the Roof Boards
If you can see sunlight coming through your loft or attic roof boards, it’s a clear sign of gaps or holes that need immediate attention.
