Taverham is a popular residential village on the north-western edge of Norwich, dominated by detached and semi-detached houses built from the 1970s onwards, and we install new roofs across the area when those original roof systems reach the end of their useful life.
The majority of homes in Taverham were built between the 1970s and the 1990s, which means a large number of properties are now carrying their original concrete interlocking tiles. After 40 to 50 years, these tiles typically begin to delaminate, their coatings break down and the felt underlay beneath becomes brittle. At that stage a full replacement is almost always more sensible than continued repair. We strip, re-batten and re-tile, checking the rafter structure at the same time, which is particularly relevant on properties along the Taverham Road corridor where some of the earlier housing stock has seen varying degrees of maintenance.
Taverham's proximity to the Wensum Valley nature reserve and the river itself means some roads can be shaded and damp, which accelerates moss growth and tile deterioration. We factor local conditions into our material recommendations rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. Call us for a free roof survey and we can give you an honest assessment of what your property actually needs.
