Re-roofing in Somerset

Re-roofing across Somerset, designed and built by SK Residential under one contract. We handle the survey, drawings, approvals and construction.

Covering Somerset

Our re-roofing service in Somerset covers Bath, Weston-super-Mare, Taunton and Yeovil and more.

Homes in the South West

The South West mixes stone and render cottages, Victorian terraces in the larger towns and modern estates, and many historic centres are conservation areas where materials and roof shapes are closely controlled.

What do you get with re-roofing?

We erect scaffolding, strip the old covering, check and repair the timbers, then lay a breathable membrane, new battens and the new covering, with dry-fix ridge and verge systems. Fascias, soffits and guttering can be replaced at the same time.

Planning and building rules in Somerset

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.
  • Bats can roost in roofs; if signs are found, work pauses for advice.

What happens after I enquire?

  1. Send us the details. Give us a postcode, a rough idea of size and some photos, by phone, form or the guide price tool.
  2. We visit and measure. A surveyor checks the house, the boundaries and the ground, and discusses what is realistic.
  3. Design and fixed price. You get drawings and a written price for the agreed specification before anything is ordered.
  4. We build it. Work follows an agreed programme, with inspections at each stage and a final sign-off.
