Reroofing is a good investment
There are many reasons why you might decide that reroofing is the best option for your home. Despite repairs, you may be experiencing leaks that never seem to be fully resolved, or you might be in the process of an extensive uplift or refurbishment. Whatever the reason, reroofing is always a good investment for your home.
We adhere to the current building regulations
If the existing roof covering is to be replaced (between 25 and 50%) with a different material to its original, for example, slate to tiles, the approval under the building regulations is likely to be needed to ensure the roof will be adequate in terms of structural stability (this is applicable where the replacement tile will be significantly heavier or lighter than the existing one), and also meets the requirements for fire safety and energy efficiency. If a roof with integral insulation is to be replaced, then you may be required to upgrade this ‘thermal element’ of the structure and reduce the amount of heat that was originally lost, by upgrading the insulation.
If the new roof cover is significantly heavier or lighter than the existing one, the roof structure may need modifying and/or strengthening, we advise you to check with a structural engineer or surveyor before we commence the work.
Energy efficiency
As a roof is defined as a thermal element, the work to re-cover a roof should also include improving the thermal insulation properties of the roof.
