Every new roof comes with a written guarantee and full building regulations compliance.

A new roof installation is usually needed for new-build properties, extensions, or outbuildings where no roof structure exists yet. It's also the right call when an existing roof has deteriorated so severely that piecemeal repairs no longer make economic sense. We cover the full range of property types across Wells-next-the-Sea and the surrounding North Norfolk coast — from traditional flint cottages to modern timber-frame extensions.
The work starts with a structural assessment of the roof timbers or rafters, checking for any rot, movement, or undersizing before a single tile goes on. We then install breathable roofing membrane, treated timber battens, and the chosen tile or slate. For coastal properties, we specify stainless steel fixings throughout — standard galvanised fixings corrode quickly this close to the sea. Ridge and hip details are bedded and pointed with flexible mortar to resist the wind uplift common along this stretch of coast.
Using a professional roofer rather than attempting any part of this work yourself matters for several reasons. Building regulations require specific standards for load-bearing capacity, insulation, and ventilation — especially for habitable loft spaces. An incorrectly installed roof can void your buildings insurance and cause costly structural damage within a few years.
We provide a written quotation with a fixed price before any work begins, so there are no surprises. Most new roof installations on a standard three-bedroom house take three to five working days. We scaffold safely, keep the site tidy, and remove all waste. Our workmanship guarantee runs for ten years.
A new roof on a typical three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wells-next-the-Sea costs between £6,500 and £10,000 depending on the tile specification and roof complexity.
