Strip-out and inspection
Remove the existing covering in a controlled sequence and inspect the exposed roof.
A roof renewal is more than the final tile or slate. The condition below, membrane, batten layout, ventilation, flashings, valleys and roof openings all contribute to the finished result.
The age of a roof alone does not decide the answer. Its condition, failure pattern and the structure beneath matter more.
The final specification should respond to the property, roof geometry and selected covering.
Remove the existing covering in a controlled sequence and inspect the exposed roof.
Install the specified membrane, battens and associated roof details.
Set out and install tile, slate or another agreed covering around all roof geometry.
The planner gives you a rough surface area plus tile, membrane and batten quantities. It is a starting point for the conversation, not an order list, so nobody should be buying materials off it.
Put in the building dimensions, the pitch and the product coverage. It takes a minute and makes the first phone call a lot more productive.
Open roof plannerOur project gallery includes the exposed membrane and battens, roof-window preparation and finished natural slate. Those stages help a homeowner understand what sits beneath the visible roof covering.
A condition assessment should consider how widespread the defects are, the state of the underlay and battens, and whether repairs are recurring.
The suitable choices depend on the roof structure, pitch, planning context, surrounding properties and the required specification.
Timing depends on roof size, geometry, access, weather and the amount of preparation found after strip-out. A project-specific programme is more useful than a generic promise.
Yes. The Our Work page contains fourteen genuine photographs from the existing covering through to the completed natural slate finish.
