What we do
About Our New Roofs
A new roof is the biggest job most homes will ever need, so it pays to have it done properly. We re-roof houses, extensions and outbuildings across South Lincolnshire in tile or natural slate, renewing everything underneath the covering so the finished roof is sound from the felt up, not just the tiles you can see.
What's Included
- Stripping and safe disposal of the old roof covering
- New breathable felt or membrane and treated battens
- New tiles or natural slate to match your property
- Ridge, hip and verge work bedded or dry-fixed
- New lead or flashings around chimneys, valleys and abutments
- Scaffolding arranged and the site left clean
The options
Types of new roofs we fit

Tiled Roofs
Concrete and clay tiles are the most common choice for homes across South Lincolnshire, and for good reason: they are hard-wearing, cost-effective and come in a range of profiles and colours to suit your property. We lay new tiled roofs over fresh breathable membrane and treated battens, with the ridge, hips and verges either bedded in mortar or dry-fixed for a low-maintenance finish.

Slate Roofs
Natural slate gives period, stone and character properties a clean, traditional finish that lasts for generations. It takes more skill to lay well, with each slate holed and nailed and the courses set out so the roof sheds water perfectly. We fit both natural and fibre-cement slate, dressing the lead and flashings around chimneys and valleys so the whole roof works as one.

Scaffold and Strip
Scaffolding goes up, the old covering comes off and we check the timbers below.
Felt, Batten and Lay
New membrane and battens go on, then the tiles or slate, working up to the ridge.
Finish and Clear Up
Flashings, ridge and verges are finished, the scaffold comes down and we clear the site.
