A new roof is a significant investment, so it pays to get it right the first time. Once a roof has been patched again and again, has perished felt and rotten battens, or has simply worn out, replacing it outright normally works out better value than paying for repair after repair.
That said, plenty of tired-looking roofs have years left in them. As roofers in Guildford, we'll tell you straight whether a full re-roof is really needed or whether a repair will see you right for a good while yet. We'd rather give you honest advice and earn your repeat business than talk you into the biggest job on the board.
When replacement is the right answer, we take off the old covering, inspect and make good the timber below, then re-lay over new breathable membrane and battens with the slate or tile you have chosen. It is all priced and explained before we begin, and if we find damaged timber once the old roof is up, we show you and agree it before carrying on - never sprung on you at the end.

Why choose us
We only point you towards a new roof when it genuinely makes sense for you - never just because it is the larger job.
Every cost is set out at the start. If lifting the old covering reveals damaged timber, we show you and agree it before going on, rather than adding it to the final bill.
Guildford has plenty of ageing period roofs sitting alongside newer estate stock. We choose and fit the right materials - matched sympathetically on older properties - so your new roof lasts decades rather than years.
A full re-roof is a good deal more than fresh tiles. When we replace a roof across Guildford and the surrounding area, the job typically covers:
We'll take you through the choices and the costs before anything gets underway, so you know exactly what you're paying for and why.
Frequently asked questions
If a roof is genuinely worn out, has been patched over and over, or has faults across the whole of it - perished felt, failing battens, leaks in several places - replacement usually works out better value over time. If the problem is in one area, a repair normally sorts it. We look first and give you a straight answer either way.
A standard re-roof on an average house usually takes a few days, though it hinges on the size and shape of the roof, the weather, and the scaffolding needed. Once we have looked at the job we will give you a realistic timeframe.
We install both tiled and slate roofs, chosen to suit the property and sit right with its neighbours - whether that is natural slate on a period terrace or interlocking tiles on a newer estate home.
It depends on the size of the roof, the materials you choose - natural slate costs more than tile - and how much of the structure beneath needs work. A terrace is a smaller job than a detached house. We give a firm, itemised figure only after seeing the roof, and flag anything like rotten timber before we start.
Yes. We sheet up and protect the areas around the work, keep the site tidy as we go, and clear away properly at the end. A re-roof is disruptive by nature, but we do what we can to keep that to a minimum.
We install new roofs across Guildford, Godalming, Cranleigh, Bramley, Woking and nearby parts of Surrey.
