Homes in Dyfed
Welsh homes include long terraces built into hillsides, stone cottages and modern estates, and sloping sites often shape how and where an extension can go.
What goes into 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.
- Planning and building regulations checks under Welsh rules
- Scaffolding and edge protection
- Fascias, soffits and guttering if required

| Re-roofing | Guide price incl. VAT |

| Terraced house | £6,000 to £10,000 |
| Semi-detached house | £8,000 to £15,000 |
| Detached house | £12,000 to £25,000 |
What approvals does re-roofing need in Wales?
Welsh projects need planning clearance from the council under Welsh rules, building regulations approval under the Welsh approved documents, and party wall notices where the work affects a neighbour’s wall or foundations.
Like-for-like re-roofing does not usually need planning permission in Wales, except on listed buildings and in some conservation areas.
What should Carmarthen homeowners check first?
- Neighbouring roofs on semis and terraces need careful junction details.
- Bats can roost in roofs; if signs are found, work pauses for advice.
How does the project run?
- Tell us about the project. Call, use the guide price tool or send the form with a few photos and a postcode.
- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
- Drawings, approvals, written quote. We prepare the design, apply for the approvals it needs, and give you a fixed price in writing.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
