Covering Norfolk
Our coverage across Norfolk includes Norwich, Great Yarmouth, King's Lynn and Thetford.
Homes in the East of England
The East of England has a large stock of post-war and modern estate housing alongside period homes in market towns, which makes garage conversions, single-storey extensions and loft conversions popular.
What does re-roofing involve?
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

Planning and building rules in Norfolk
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 Norfolk homeowners check first?
- Neighbouring roofs on semis and terraces need careful junction details.
- Insulation upgrades at the same time can cut heat loss significantly.
What are the steps?
- Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
- We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
- Price and paperwork. The design is priced line by line, and we submit the planning and building control applications.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
Your questions answered
Does re-roofing need building regulations?
In England and Wales, replacing a large part of the roof covering normally needs building control approval or a registered competent person, and insulation upgraded where practical.
Should I replace the fascias at the same time?
Usually yes, because the scaffolding is already up.
