Roof Installation

New-build and extension roofs installed to current building standards, first time.

Roof installation is the fitting of a complete new roof structure and covering on a new build, extension or garage, from the timber and membrane through to the tiles, ridge and finishing details.

A new roof is only as good as the detail underneath it. We install the full system correctly, breathable membrane, treated battens, ventilation and flashing, so the roof performs for decades, not just looks right on day one.

We work with homeowners, builders and developers across Burton-on-Trent and the East Midlands, and we fit tile, slate and flat roof systems to suit the property and the specification.

What's included

  • Breathable underlay and correctly gauged battens
  • Tile, slate or flat roof covering to your specification
  • Ridge, hip and verge detailing, dry-fixed where required
  • Lead or GRP flashing to abutments and chimneys
  • Roof ventilation to prevent condensation
  • Guttering and rainwater outlets tied in
  • Work carried out to current building regulations
