Age and condition both play a part in that decision. A roof nearing 50 years old, or one failing in several places at once, is often better replaced, since further patching rarely offers good value.
We carry out full re-roofing and new roof installations across Reading and the Thames Valley. While the covering is off, we also check and repair the timbers and battens, then recover with quality tiles or slates, new membrane and fresh leadwork.
Whether you're re-roofing a 1930s semi, a period terrace or fitting a roof on a new extension, we'll talk you through the materials and options first. You then get a clear written quote with no obligation.
If you're weighing up the cost, our guide to what a new roof costs in Reading breaks it down clearly. It also helps to know the signs that a roof needs replacing rather than repairing.
Many of the roofs we re-cover are on classic Berkshire homes. Our piece on re-roofing a 1930s semi in Reading covers what to expect on that kind of property.
