Roofing Work in Selfoss and South Iceland

A roof is one of the most important defences a house has against Icelandic weather, so it matters that it’s done right from the start – or repaired quickly and properly when something goes wrong. At Traustbyggingar we handle all general roofing work for homeowners in Selfoss and further afield across South Iceland, whether it’s a minor leak repair, replacing corrugated iron, or a complete overhaul of an old roof. We have worked on a wide range of roofing projects and always focus on quality finishing that holds up in Icelandic weather.

What roofing work do we take on?

Some of the roofing work we regularly carry out includes:

  • Repairing damaged or leaking roofs
  • Sealing leaks at valleys, windows and joints

  • Replacing gutters and downpipes
  • Fascia and bargeboard finishing
  • Fitting and sealing roof windows
  • Repairing the timber substructure under the roof
  • Roof insulation to reduce heat loss
  • Repairs after storm and weather damage
