Covering Tiverton
Our coverage around Tiverton (EX16) also includes Exeter, Taunton and Exmouth.
Homes in the South West
Homes in the South West range from coastal and rural properties in stone and slate to city terraces and modern estates, so extensions are designed to match the local materials.
What is included in re-roofing in Tiverton?
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
- Breathable membrane and new battens
- Fascias, soffits and guttering if required
What will re-roofing cost?
Guide prices for re-roofing, including VAT where it applies. Your fixed price is confirmed in writing after the survey.
| 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?
In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.
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.
- Neighbouring roofs on semis and terraces need careful junction details.
What are the steps?
- 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.
- Build and hand over. Our teams build to the programme, building control inspects, and you get the completion paperwork at the end.
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.
Should I replace the fascias at the same time?
Usually yes, because the scaffolding is already up.
Can you visit a house in Tiverton to quote?
Yes. After a short call we arrange a site visit to measure up and agree what the design needs to do, then send a written price.
