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.

Strip old covering and check timbers
Fascias, soffits and guttering if required

Do you need permission for re-roofing in Powys?

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 I think about before starting?

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