How it works
How Our New Roof Installation in Saxilby Works
Saxilby sits low on the flat land along the Fossdyke, where damp and ventilation deserve as much thought as the tiles. Here's how a new roof comes together:
- 1
Survey and quote
We look at the roof covering and the loft, check for signs of condensation or damp timber, and give you a clear written quote.
- 2
Strip and check
With the scaffold up, we strip the old tiles or slates and felt, then check the rafters, wall plates and any damp-affected timber.
- 3
Felt, batten and ventilate
A breathable membrane, new battens and eaves or ridge ventilation go on, followed by the tile or slate you've chosen.
- 4
Finish and clear
We finish the ridge, verges and lead work, check the gutters run freely, and clear the site before the scaffold is taken down.

FAQs about New Roofs in Saxilby
Will a new roof disrupt my Saxilby property for long?
Most domestic re-roofs in Saxilby take a few days to a week depending on size and weather. We'll give you a realistic timescale once we've seen the job.
My Saxilby loft always feels damp. Could a new roof sort it out?
Often, yes. Many older roofs were built with felt that doesn't breathe and little ventilation, and in a low-lying village by the water that leads to condensation on the timbers. A new roof with a breathable membrane and proper ventilation usually cures it, and we'll check the cause at the survey.
Can you put a new slate roof on my older house in Saxilby?
Yes. Older Saxilby houses near the canal often have Welsh slate, and we can re-roof in natural slate to keep their character, or talk through a good-quality alternative if budget is tight. We'll show you the options before you decide.
Can you add roof windows when you put on a new roof?
Yes. A re-roof is the easiest time to add roof windows to a Saxilby loft, as the tiles are already off and the opening can be framed and flashed into the new covering. We'll talk through sizes and positions at the survey.
Do you offer a guarantee on new roofs?
We stand behind our work. Talk to us about the specific job in Saxilby and we'll explain what's covered before we start.
Is the quote free?
Yes. Every quote from C R Smith & Son is free and written, with no obligation.
