Full re-roofing across Devizes and surrounding Wiltshire — free survey, itemised quote, written 10-year guarantee. All materials and specification options explained clearly before any commitment.
A complete re-roof is not just new tiles. Here is what every re-roof in Devizes includes as standard.
Free survey assessing tile condition, batten and felt condition, lead status, ridge and hip, guttering and chimney. Written findings provided before any quote is agreed.
All tiles stripped, existing felt and battens removed. Roof deck inspected for rotten or damaged boards. Any structural issues identified before work proceeds.
BS5534-compliant underlay and pressure-treated battens throughout. No re-use of deteriorated battens — this is where corners are most often cut by cheaper contractors.
Lead valleys, chimney flashings and abutment flashings replaced in correct code weights as part of the re-roof. Not patched over existing lead.
Tiles fixed with stainless steel nails or clips — never original mild steel that will corrode again in 30 years. Correct fixing pattern for tile type and roof pitch.
Written workmanship guarantee covering all installation work. Clear terms, not small print. Provided on completion alongside invoice and specification record.
Chalk downland setting produces greater temperature variation than the Avon Valley — more thermal cycling stress on leads and mortars than in sheltered towns. For roof replacement work in Devizes, this means specification choices that reflect the actual conditions rather than generic Wiltshire averages.
Georgian market town centre with parapet buildings contrasts with Southbroom and Roundway's post-war estates. We are 14 miles southeast from Devizes — 25 minutes — with no travel surcharge and same local knowledge that applies to every property type in this area.
Free survey. Written quote. No obligation.
Re-roofing in Devizes's conservation area requires material compliance from the outset. Natural Welsh slate or clay plain tile for the Georgian and Victorian stock, lime mortar throughout, no plastic or cement-based ridge cappings. The Wiltshire Historic Environment team is active in Devizes and will challenge non-compliant work on listed buildings. We specify correctly and advise on planning requirements before any quote is prepared.
For the estate housing on Southbroom and Roundway, concrete interlocking tile re-roofing is the standard approach. These properties are now 50–60 years old and nail sickness on the older stock is increasingly system-wide — the age at which a full re-roof makes more economic sense than repeated repair cycles. Free survey, written itemised quote, 10-year guarantee.

Yes. We advise on listed building consent requirements, prepare material specifications for planning purposes, and liaise with the Wiltshire Historic Environment team where required.
Increasingly common on the Southbroom and Roundway 1960s–70s stock as it reaches 55–60 years of age. We survey and assess each slope individually — sometimes a phased re-roof is viable. Free nail sickness survey with honest assessment.
It depends on the property. Modern estate housing typically uses concrete interlocking tile — durable, matched to surrounding properties. Period and conservation area properties should use clay plain tile or natural slate. We advise on the most appropriate material for your specific property and planning context during the free survey.
A full re-roof removes a common pre-purchase survey concern and is typically reflected positively in valuations. The exact impact depends on the market, but a documented 10-year guarantee and clearly maintained roof is a strong selling point compared to a property with a survey flag on roof condition.
We monitor forecasts and plan the strip phase around dry weather windows. We never leave a fully-stripped roof overnight without weatherproofing in place. If a weather delay extends beyond one day, we communicate clearly and keep the roof secure. Our 10-year guarantee covers any issues arising from our workmanship regardless of weather during the build.
