Full re-roofing across Pewsham 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 Pewsham 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.
Pewsham's proximity to Chippenham means identical climate conditions — the primary driver is age, with almost all properties built in the same 1990s–2000s window now entering their first major maintenance cycle simultaneously. For roof replacement work in Pewsham, this means specification choices that reflect the actual conditions rather than generic Wiltshire averages.
Uniform 1990s–2000s development estate — virtually every property has the same roof specification aging at the same rate. We are 2 miles east from Pewsham — 5 minutes — with no travel surcharge and same local knowledge that applies to every property type in this area.
Free survey. Written quote. No obligation.
Full pitched roof re-roofing is not yet the common requirement on most Pewsham properties — the tiles themselves are typically in reasonable condition. What drives re-roofing calls from Pewsham is usually the combination of failed flat roof, ridge mortar issues, guttering problems and tile slippage reaching a point where a single comprehensive approach makes more sense than a series of separate repairs.
For Pewsham properties where the survey confirms ridge mortar, verge mortar and hip mortar are all failing system-wide, a full re-strip with new felt, battens and refix of existing tiles is often the most cost-effective approach — retaining sound tiles, replacing all mortar, and addressing the felt underlay in one visit. We survey and advise honestly on whether repair or re-roof is the better value option.
"Survey confirmed ridge, verge and hip mortar all failing on our 1994 semi. Full re-strip and refix of existing tiles with new felt and battens. More cost-effective than patching. Done in two days."
"GRP flat roof replacement on extension at the same time as a ridge repoint — scaffold up once for both jobs. Saved money and disruption. Good thinking from their end."
"Full concrete tile re-roof on our 1998 detached — tiles were still in decent condition but felt underlay and battens were failed. Re-used tiles where sound, replaced battens and felt throughout. Sensible approach."
Typically not the tiles themselves — concrete interlocking tiles from the 1990s are often still in reasonable condition. What drives re-roofing decisions is usually failed felt underlay, deteriorated battens, and failing mortar throughout. We survey and advise honestly. A re-strip-and-refix of existing tiles is often the right answer.
Re-strip and refix with new felt and battens (retaining sound tiles): £2,500–£4,000. Full re-roof with new concrete interlocking tiles: £5,000–£7,500. GRP flat roof included at the same time: add £1,200–£2,500. Free survey and itemised quote.
Yes — and it's more cost-effective than two separate visits because scaffold is only erected once. If both the flat roof extension and the main pitched roof need attention, combining them saves £300–£600 in scaffold costs.
10-year written workmanship guarantee on all re-roofing work. GRP flat roofs carry a 25-year material guarantee from the manufacturer in addition.
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.
