Calum Pretsell
Balerno is a village at the foot of the Pentland Hills in southwest Edinburgh — and it's where Pentland Roofing is based. That means faster response times, no call-out charges, and genuine local knowledge of the area's housing stock. From period stone cottages along Bridge Road and in the village centre to modern developments in Dean Park and Johnsburn, we know every roof type in Balerno inside out.
The village's exposed position at the Pentland Hills foothills means properties take a battering from westerly winds and heavy rainfall. The Water of Leith runs through Balerno too, and properties near the river can experience increased dampness. We also cover nearby Currie, Juniper Green, and Colinton — all within minutes of our EH14 base.

We're based right here in Balerno, so you get the fastest response times in the area. We know the local housing stock inside out, from Dean Park modern builds to Bridge Road stone cottages. No call-out charges locally.
The Pentland Hills exposure means properties face harsh westerly winds and heavy rain. We regularly repair wind-lifted slates, damaged ridge tiles, and deteriorating lead work on older village properties. Modern estates in Johnsburn and Dean Park often need flat roof maintenance.
