A new roof is a significant investment, and getting it right first time matters. We install new roofs on homes and commercial buildings across Aylsham, using materials suited to Norfolk's wet winters and coastal winds. From pitched slate and tile roofs to felt and EPDM flat roofs, we handle the full installation.

A new roof installation is needed when an existing roof is beyond economical repair, when you're extending or building new, or when a property has been re-roofed with poor materials that are now failing. It's a substantial piece of work, but done properly it protects the whole building for decades.
The work begins with stripping the existing roof covering back to the deck or rafters, checking for any rotten timber and replacing it before anything else goes on. We then install modern breathable felt underlay, new battens, and lay your chosen tile or slate. Ridge tiles are bedded and pointed, lead flashings are dressed around chimneys and abutments, and guttering connections are checked. For new builds we work from the structural drawings and liaise with the main contractor.
Skimping on a roof installation creates problems that are expensive to fix later. Poorly laid tiles lift in high winds, inadequate flashings allow water into the wall cavity, and substandard underlay fails within a few years. A properly installed roof by an experienced roofer avoids those costs entirely.
We survey the roof before quoting, so there are no surprises on the bill. Most new roof installations on a standard three-bedroom semi-detached in Norfolk take three to five working days. We clear all waste and old materials from site before we leave.
A new pitched roof in Aylsham typically costs between £5,500 and £12,000 depending on size, pitch, and the tile or slate chosen, with natural slate sitting at the higher end of that range.
