Homes in the South East

Housing across the South East mixes inter-war semis, post-war estates and older cottages in villages and market towns, so rear and side extensions, hip-to-gable lofts and garage conversions all come up regularly.

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.

  • Roof survey and quotation
  • Strip old covering and check timbers
  • Breathable membrane and new battens

Do you need permission for re-roofing in Crowborough?

English projects need planning clearance from the local council, building regulations sign-off from building control, and party wall notices where the work is on or near a shared boundary. We prepare and manage all three.

Replacing a roof covering like for like does not usually need planning permission in England.

What should Crowborough homeowners check first?

  • Heavier tiles than the original can overload old rafters.
  • Bats can roost in roofs; if signs are found, work pauses for advice.

How does the project run?

  1. Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
  2. We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
  3. Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
  4. Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
