What do you get with 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.
- Scaffolding and edge protection
- Strip old covering and check timbers
- Breathable membrane and new battens
What will re-roofing cost?
What re-roofing typically cost. These are guide ranges; the written quote for your house replaces them.
| Re-roofing | Guide price incl. VAT |
|---|---|
| Terraced house | £6,000 to £10,000 |
| Semi-detached house | £8,000 to £15,000 |
| Detached house | £12,000 to £25,000 |
What approvals does re-roofing need in England?
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 can change the price or programme?
- Heavier tiles than the original can overload old rafters.
- Insulation upgrades at the same time can cut heat loss significantly.
How does the project run?
- Start with a conversation. A short call or the online form is enough for us to understand what you want to build.
- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
- Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
- Construction and completion. One site lead co-ordinates every trade through to the building control certificate.
What people ask before starting
Do I need planning permission to re-roof?
Not usually for like-for-like replacement, unless the house is listed or in a conservation area with extra controls.
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.
