Roof Replacements

Roof Replacements in Aylsham

Roof replacement becomes the right call when repairs are no longer keeping pace with the deterioration, when a roof is sagging or the deck is rotten, or when an old felt flat roof or concrete tile covering has simply reached the end of its useful life. Continuing to patch a failing roof costs more in the long run than replacing it cleanly.

We start by removing all existing tiles, slates, or felt, and inspecting every rafter, purlin, and the decking beneath. Any timber that has rotted or been damaged by water ingress is cut out and replaced with treated new timber before the new covering goes on. We then install breathable roofing felt, new tanalised battens, and lay the new tile or slate to the correct gauge. Lead or aluminium flashings are refitted or replaced at chimneys, party walls, and roof windows. The job is not finished until the ridge is pointed, valley gutters are clean and clear, and all debris has left the site.

A roof replacement tackled by an inexperienced contractor often results in hidden problems being papered over rather than fixed. Rotten rafters left in place will continue to spread, and a new covering laid over a compromised deck will not last its expected lifespan. Our approach is to fix what is underneath first.

We work across Aylsham and nearby towns including Aylsham, Cawston, Reepham, and Wroxham. Most domestic replacements are completed within a week, and we keep you updated throughout. We remove and dispose of all old roofing materials legally.

Roof replacement costs in Norfolk generally range from £4,500 to £11,000 for a typical detached or semi-detached home, depending on size, access, and materials selected.
