What is re-roofing?
Re-roofing means stripping a pitched roof back to the rafters and replacing the membrane, battens, tiles or slates, ridge and flashings. It is needed when a roof covering reaches the end of its life, and it is the right time to improve loft insulation.

- Breathable membrane and new battens
- New tiles or slates, ridge and verge

What approvals does re-roofing need in Wales?
In Wales the planning rules, including what counts as permitted development, are set by the Welsh Government, and Welsh building regulations differ in places from England’s. We check both against your house before drawings are finalised, and handle party wall notices where needed.
Like-for-like re-roofing does not usually need planning permission in Wales, except on listed buildings and in some conservation areas.
What can affect re-roofing?
- Heavier tiles than the original can overload old rafters.
- Neighbouring roofs on semis and terraces need careful junction details.
What happens after I enquire?
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
- Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
