How long does a roof replacement take?

Most domestic re-roofs take from a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on the size of the roof and the weather. We give you a realistic timescale in your quote and keep you updated throughout the job.

How do I know if I need a new roof or just a repair?

If repairs are becoming frequent, tiles are failing in several places or the underlay has perished, a replacement is often more cost-effective. We will inspect the roof and give you an honest recommendation, never pushing a re-roof where a repair will do.

Will you remove the old roof waste?

Yes. Safe removal and disposal of the old covering and all waste is included as standard, and we leave your property clean and tidy on completion.

A roof replacement, or re-roof, is the removal of the existing roof covering and the fitting of a complete new system, including new underlay, battens and tiles or slates.

When repairs are becoming frequent, tiles are failing across the roof or the underlay has perished, a full replacement is usually the more cost-effective choice. A new roof restores weather protection, improves energy efficiency and adds value to the property.

We strip the old covering, inspect and repair the timbers, then rebuild the roof with new breathable membrane, battens and your chosen tiles or slates, finished with fresh ridge and leadwork.

What's included

Full strip of the old covering and safe waste removal
Inspection and repair of roof timbers where needed
New breathable underlay and treated battens
New tiles or slates in your chosen style and colour
New ridge, hip and verge detailing
New lead flashing to chimneys and abutments

How much does roof replacement cost?

A re-roof is priced on the size and pitch of the roof, the covering you choose and the condition of the timbers underneath. We set it all out clearly in a written quote after a free survey.

Factor	Effect on price
Roof area and pitch	The main driver of both labour and materials
New covering	Natural slate typically costs more than concrete tile
Timber condition	Any rotten battens or rafters found are repaired
Scaffolding	Full scaffolding is usually required for safe access
