Complete roof installation and re-roofing built to last 50+ years. Premium materials, fully scaffolded jobs, 10-year workmanship guarantee.
Roof installation in Portsmouth or anywhere along the Hampshire coast is a 40-50 year decision and a £6,500-£20,000 investment, so it's worth getting right. Every re-roof we carry out strips the old covering back to the rafters, replaces the old felt with a modern breathable membrane, fits new treated battens to current spec, and re-covers in the tile or slate of your choice. Verges and ridges are rebuilt in dry-fix systems so they don't lift in the next named storm. The work is signed off with a 10-year insurance-backed workmanship guarantee on top of the manufacturer's tile warranty (typically 30+ years). We don't push specific brands and we don't upsell underlay you don't need — we'll tell you straight what works on your property and what doesn't. A typical 3-bed semi roof installation takes 5-7 working days. You can stay in the house throughout. Get a no-pressure written quote within 48 hours.
Roof installation covers more than just replacements on existing properties. Our roof installation services run across three project types: complete re-roofs on existing homes (stripping back to the rafters and rebuilding the entire roof system), first-fit installations on new-build properties (working from the architect's drawings and signing off with Building Control), and extension roofs (single-storey kitchens, dining rooms and rear extensions tied properly into the existing roofline). The quality of installation determines roof lifespan as much as the material you choose — a £15,000 natural slate roof fitted poorly will fail before a £8,000 concrete tile roof fitted well. Battens to BS 5534 spec, breathable membrane lapped correctly at every joint, lead flashings dressed by hand, and dry-fix ridge and verge systems are non-negotiable on every roof installation we deliver across Hampshire.
Strip to rafters, new membrane, new battens, new covering. The whole roof, properly, in one go.
Old covering and membrane removed and disposed of. Skip and scaffolding included in the price.
First-fix and finish roofing for builders, architects and self-builders. Building Control sign-off provided.
Best time to upgrade loft or rafter insulation — adding 100-300mm while the roof is open is fast and cheap.
