What's involved

New Roofs in your area

A new roof is one of the most significant investments you'll make in a property, and getting the specification right from day one matters. We install new roofs on everything from Victorian terraces in Earlham to modern new-build detached homes on the outskirts of Sprowston and Thorpe St Andrew. Whether you need a traditional pitched roof in natural slate or concrete interlocking tiles, or a warm flat roof system on a single-storey extension, we'll advise on the best material for your budget and the building's exposure.

The work typically begins with stripping any existing covering, inspecting or replacing the timber structure where needed, and installing new breathable underlay before tiling or slating begins. We fit new lead flashings at chimney stacks, abutments, and valleys as standard — these are the details that determine how long a roof actually lasts. Ridge tiles are mechanically fixed rather than simply bedded in mortar, which is now best practice and far more resistant to Norwich's periodic gale-force winds.

Using a professional roofer rather than attempting to save costs with an unqualified trader protects your property warranty, satisfies mortgage lender requirements, and ensures the work complies with current Building Regulations where applicable. A roof installed incorrectly will fail within years, often voiding your home insurance in the process.

We survey the job before any work begins, provide a fixed written quote, and agree a start date. Most full re-roofs on a standard three-bedroom Norwich semi take three to five days. We leave the site clean and tidy at the end of every day. All our new roofs come with a minimum 10-year workmanship guarantee alongside any manufacturer material warranties.

A new pitched roof on a typical three-bedroom semi-detached house in Norwich costs between £5,500 and £9,000 depending on roof size, material choice, and whether structural timber work is required.

Questions

What people ask first.

A new pitched roof on a standard three-bedroom semi in Norwich typically costs between £5,500 and £9,000, depending on the size of the roof, material chosen, and whether any timber repairs are needed. Larger detached properties or those requiring natural Welsh slate will sit at the higher end of the range. We provide a fixed written quote after a free site survey so there are no surprises.
If your roof has repeated leaks in different areas, tiles that are spalling or absorbing water heavily, or an original felt lining that is visibly torn and sagging in the loft, a full replacement is usually more cost-effective than ongoing repairs. A useful rule of thumb is that if you've spent more than £800 on repairs in the past three years and problems persist, a replacement will save money over the next decade. We'll give you an honest assessment during a free survey.
Minor repairs such as replacing a few cracked tiles or re-pointing ridge mortar in Norwich typically cost between £150 and £450. More involved repairs — replacing a lead flashing, re-laying a valley, or fixing storm damage across a larger area — generally range from £350 to £900. We provide a fixed price after inspection so you know exactly what you're paying before any work begins.
Flat roof installation in Norwich typically costs between £70 and £120 per square metre for EPDM rubber or GRP fibreglass systems. A standard single-storey extension roof of around 20 square metres would therefore cost in the region of £1,400 to £2,400 fully installed. The final price depends on deck condition, the system chosen, and drainage requirements — we provide a fixed written quote after a free survey.
For a standard three-bedroom semi-detached house in Norwich, fascia and soffit replacement typically costs between £800 and £1,600. The price depends on the total roofline length, whether rafter feet need repair, and the guttering system you choose. We provide a fixed written quote after a free roofline inspection so you know exactly what you're paying before any work begins.
Replacing the lead flashing around a chimney stack in Norwich typically costs between £250 and £550. A full lead valley replacement on a pitched roof will usually fall between £400 and £900 depending on the length and access. We give you a fixed price after inspecting the roof, with no hidden costs.
A chimney rebuild in Norwich — covering scaffold, new matched brickwork, fresh flaunching, and lead re-flashing — typically costs between £1,200 and £3,000. The price varies based on how many courses need rebuilding, the stack height, and whether specialist reclaimed brick is required to match the original. We provide a free, detailed written quote after a survey.
Chimney take-downs in Norwich typically cost between £900 and £2,500 including scaffold, dismantling, roof reinstatement, and waste removal. The main factors affecting price are the height and size of the stack and how much new tiling or slating is needed to make good the roof. We include everything in a single fixed quote — no extras for skips or scaffold hire.
