Start with the covering and the structure beneath it
A new roof is the chance to put right tired battens, worn membrane and awkward junctions as well as replace the tiles you see. Lewis begins with the roof shape, the condition of the supporting timber and the weight of the proposed covering. The survey also checks chimney positions, roof windows, valley lengths and how the eaves meet the guttering.
These details establish the job before the old covering comes off. Concrete tiles offer a range of profiles and colours. Clay brings a different texture, while pantiles give the curved appearance seen on many East Anglian homes.
The right choice follows the pitch and structure of your property, as well as the finish you want from the street. Changing the tile type calls for more thought than choosing a colour. Your written price identifies the covering and the work beneath it, so you can compare like for like.
How the replacement is carried out
Access and roof protection are organised before stripping starts. The old tiles are lifted in sections, the exposed timber is checked and any repairs are dealt with before the new layers cover them. Membrane and battens form the prepared surface for the tiles, with the spacing set for the chosen product.
Courses are laid to keep the roof straight and the overlaps consistent. The junctions then receive the same attention as the main slopes. Leadwork directs water away from walls and chimney stacks; ridges, verges and valleys finish the exposed edges.
Ventilation and insulation details are considered together to avoid sealing up a roof that needs airflow. On a bungalow, long eaves and several hips add to the detailing. On a terrace, the meeting point with the next roof deserves particular care.
Lewis checks the completed covering and clears the waste before handing the roof back to you.
Plan the work around your home
Scaffolding, skip space and material deliveries affect daily access while the roof is being replaced. Lewis talks through where these will go and which doors and paths need to stay usable. Roof size, the number of slopes and the condition discovered beneath the old tiles determine the working time.
The survey is the point to get a project timetable for your particular house. Price differences between quotes often come from what sits beneath the tiles: timber repairs, insulation work, membrane, roofline details and access. Ask for those elements to be shown with the covering.
If you are also changing roof windows or repairing the chimney, doing the jobs together uses the same access and avoids disturbing new work later. Your new roof comes with a 10 year guarantee. Book the free survey to put the materials, surrounding repairs and finished roof into one written price, with no VAT to add.

Good to know
Straight answers before you book.
Should I change the tiles when replacing my roof?
You can choose a different finish, but the roof pitch and supporting structure must suit the replacement covering. Lewis checks those details and explains the tile options at the survey.
Can roof insulation be improved during a re-roof?
A replacement exposes areas that are difficult to reach beneath an intact covering. Lewis includes the insulation and ventilation work in the roof plan so the new layers work together.
Which tiles do you install?
Concrete tiles, clay tiles and pantiles are covered, alongside slate roofs. Lewis surveys the existing roof and discusses the covering and details for your home.
What guarantee comes with a new roof?
The replacement covering is guaranteed for 10 years. Your written quote sets out the new covering and the work beneath and around it.
