Covering Kirkby-in-Ashfield
Kirkby-in-Ashfield sits 11 miles north of Nottingham, with Sutton-in-Ashfield 2 miles to the north and Mansfield 3 miles to the north-east.
Homes in the East Midlands
The East Midlands combines red-brick terraces in the cities with a lot of post-war and modern estate housing, so rear extensions, garage conversions and loft conversions are all common.
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
- Fascias, soffits and guttering if required

Replacing a roof covering like for like does not usually need planning permission in England.
What can affect re-roofing?
- Neighbouring roofs on semis and terraces need careful junction details.
