How it works
How Our New Roof Installation in Waddington Works
Waddington sits high on the Lincoln Cliff, so the wind is part of the plan for every new roof. Here's how one comes together:
- 1
Survey and quote
We look over the roof and the timbers, note how exposed the property is on the Cliff, and check whether any conservation area rules apply before we quote.
- 2
Scaffold and strip
Once the scaffold is up, the old covering comes off and we inspect the rafters and wall plates, which can be tired on older stone cottages.
- 3
Felt, batten and cover
New membrane and battens go on, then pantiles, slate or concrete tiles, with clips and fixings suited to an exposed spot.
- 4
Secure and clear
Ridges, hips and verges are mechanically fixed or properly bedded, lead is dressed round the chimneys, and the site is cleared.

FAQs about New Roofs in Waddington
Will a new roof disrupt my Waddington property for long?
Most domestic re-roofs in Waddington 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.
Does Waddington's position on the Cliff affect how a new roof is fixed?
It does. Homes along the Cliff edge are more exposed than those down in the valley, so we pay extra attention to tile clips, verge and ridge fixings and the strength of the battens. It's part of the survey and the quote, not an extra afterwards.
Can you re-roof a stone cottage that has clay pantiles?
Yes. Older Waddington cottages often have clay pantiles, and where they're sound we can lift, set aside and relay them on a new membrane and battens, topping up with reclaimed or new pantiles where needed. It keeps the look of the cottage while making the roof watertight again.
My post-war Waddington house has a heavy concrete tile roof. Can the timbers take a new one?
Usually, yes, if the rafters are sound. We check the timbers from the loft during the survey, and if anything has sagged or been weakened we'll explain what needs strengthening before the new roof goes on.
Do you offer a guarantee on new roofs?
We stand behind our work. Talk to us about the specific job in Waddington 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.
