Rhondda sits 12 miles north-east of Bridgend, with Tonypandy 3 miles to the south and Aberdare 4 miles to the north.
Homes in Mid Glamorgan
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
- Breathable membrane and new battens
- New tiles or slates, ridge and verge

Planning and building rules in Rhondda
In Wales the planning rules, including what counts as permitted development, are set by the Welsh Government, and Welsh building regulations differ in places from England’s. We check both against your house before drawings are finalised, and handle party wall notices where needed.
Like-for-like re-roofing does not usually need planning permission in Wales, except on listed buildings and in some conservation areas.
What can affect re-roofing?
- Heavier tiles than the original can overload old rafters.
- Neighbouring roofs on semis and terraces need careful junction details.
