Full installation on new build or after strip-out. Material chosen for the pitch, the region and the existing structure.

What we do
Our work on a roof
From replacing one cracked tile to rebuilding a full covering over a repaired frame.
Replacement and renovation
Stripping the old covering, checking the frame and the deck, then re-covering with a proper underlay.
Survey before quoteZinc work
Gutters, valleys, downpipes and flashing. The part of a roof that fails first when it is done badly.
Zinc · Copper · AluminiumWaterproofing
Treating the weak points: chimneys, roof windows, wall junctions, terraces and low-pitch roofs.
Leak tracingRoof insulation
Insulation from inside or above during a replacement, with the ventilation gap done properly underneath.
Sarking · LoftMaintenance and callouts
Moss removal, annual checks, single repairs. And a tarpaulin fitted the same day when wind has opened a roof.

Materials
The right material depends on the pitch
Before colour and price there is a simple constraint: every covering has a minimum pitch below which it takes in water. That is the first filter we apply, and the one quotes talk about least.
The second filter is local. Planning rules, wind exposure and what the area has always used usually narrow the choice down to two options.
Interlocking tileMedium to steep pitch
Barrel tileLow pitch, southern
SlateSteep pitch
Steel sheetLow pitch, large areas
Standing seam zincVery low pitch possible
Rough guidance. Exact values depend on the applicable standard and the climate zone.
How it runs
What a job looks like
Four stages, and a quote you can read line by line.
Survey and take-off
We come up and look. Photos, measurements, condition of the frame and deck. The calculator on this site is for rough sizing, not a replacement for that visit.
Itemised quote
Areas, materials, quantities, labour and waste, each on its own line. You should be able to compare our quote with another without a translator.
The job
Protecting the surroundings, stripping, checking the deck, laying. Every day is photographed in our own app, and you get the updates.
Handover and follow-up
A walk round with you, clean-up, paperwork handed over. Then a check at one year, because that is when faults show.
