Roofing Contractors in Kampala
We are roofing contractors in Kampala for new roofs, roof replacements and repairs on homes, schools, churches and commercial buildings, built to keep the rain out for years.
Roofing works done properly from truss to gutter
As roofing contractors in Kampala, Super Bis Limited installs complete roofing systems: the roof structure, the covering, ridges and flashings, fascia boards and rainwater gutters. A roof is one of the most expensive parts of a building, and one of the easiest to get wrong, so our engineers check the design, truss spacing and fixings before the first sheet goes up.
Roof structures
We fabricate and fix treated timber trusses and rafters, or steel roof trusses for wider spans. Wall plates are anchored to the ring beam, and bracing is added so the roof resists strong winds.
Roof coverings
- Pre-painted iron sheets: box profile, corrugated and long-span
- Clay, concrete and stone-coated steel roof tiles
- Translucent sheets for verandas and workshops
- Ridges, valleys, flashings and fascia boards
Roofing services we offer

Removing old, rusted or asbestos-era roofing and replacing it with a modern covering, often as part of a renovation.

Leak tracing, re-fixing loose sheets, replacing damaged tiles, and installing or clearing gutters and downpipes.
Why a well-built roof matters in Uganda
Heavy tropical downpours and strong winds test every roof. Poor fixing, too few purlins or badly sealed joints lead to leaks that damage ceilings, walls and electrical installations. We use the correct screws and washers, adequate overlaps, proper flashing at walls and chimneys, and gutters sized for the roof area.
Good gutters also let you harvest rainwater into a tank, which our plumbing team can connect to your house. Inside, our finishing team installs the ceiling once the roof is watertight.
What affects the cost of a roof
- Roof area and shape: hipped roofs, valleys and multiple levels need more material and labour than a simple gable.
- Covering: iron sheets cost less per square metre than tiles, but gauge, profile and coating also matter.
- Structure: timber or steel trusses, span and the number of purlins.
- Extras: gutters, fascia, ceilings, insulation and access for high buildings.
We measure your roof from the drawings or on site and itemise every cost, so you can compare options before deciding. We install roofs in Kampala, Wakiso, Nansana, Mukono and beyond.
Roofing FAQs
Which roofing material is best for a house in Uganda?
Pre-painted iron sheets (such as box profile or corrugated) are affordable and quick to install, while clay or concrete tiles and stone-coated steel tiles last longer and keep rooms cooler. We recommend a covering based on your design, roof pitch and budget.
Should I use timber or steel roof trusses?
Treated timber trusses are common and economical for houses. Steel trusses suit wide spans, commercial buildings and areas with termite risk. Our engineers size the trusses for the span and roof covering you choose.
Do you repair leaking roofs?
Yes. We inspect the roof, find the cause of the leak, such as damaged sheets, poor flashing, blocked gutters or failed joints, and fix it rather than only patching the symptom.
