What's involved

New Roofs in Wymondham

A new roof is needed when an existing structure is beyond economic repair, when you're extending your home, or when a self-build or conversion reaches the weatherproofing stage. We work on everything from traditional Norfolk brick terraces to modern detached houses, bungalows, and barn conversions throughout Wymondham and the wider South Norfolk area.

The work starts with a full survey of the existing roof structure or new build frame. We check rafters, sarking felt or breathable membrane, and battens before a single tile goes on. We then lay the chosen covering, whether that's concrete interlocking tiles, natural slate, or clay pantiles, and finish with properly formed lead or GRP flashings at chimneys, abutments, and valleys. Ridge and hip work is bedded and pointed, or dry-fixed where the specification calls for it.

A new roof done poorly will fail within a few years. Underlay lapped the wrong way, battens at the wrong gauge, or cheap fixings will show their faults when the first hard Norfolk winter arrives. Equally, building regulations and planning rules apply to many roof replacements, particularly in conservation areas near Wymondham town centre, and a professional roofer knows when to flag these things before work starts.

We'll come out and look at your roof before giving you a written quote, so you know exactly what you're paying for. Most domestic new roof installations in Wymondham take between three and seven working days depending on size and covering type. We keep the site tidy, protect your gutters and fascias during the strip, and clear all waste before we leave.

Questions

What people ask first.

For an average semi-detached house, budget somewhere between £5,000 and £9,000, depending on the tile or slate choice and roof size. A larger detached house or one with complex hips and valleys will typically fall in the £9,000 to £14,000 range. We provide a written, itemised quote after a free survey so there are no surprises.
A small bungalow typically costs between £4,500 and £7,000 to re-roof, while an average semi-detached house runs from around £6,000 to £10,000. Larger detached properties or those with multiple hips, valleys, or chimney stacks will cost more. We provide a full written quote after a free site survey.
Simple repairs such as replacing a handful of broken tiles or re-pointing a section of ridge typically cost between £150 and £400. If the repair involves forming new lead flashings around a chimney or valley, expect to pay between £300 and £700 depending on the area involved. We'll give you a clear price before any work starts.
GRP fibreglass tends to cost slightly more per square metre than EPDM rubber, but it creates a fully seamless finish that performs very well in exposed locations. Flat roof installation in Wymondham typically runs between £70 and £120 per square metre depending on the system and detailing involved. For most garages and extensions, the difference in material cost between systems is relatively small compared to the labour involved.
For a typical semi-detached house in Wymondham, expect to pay between £1,500 and £3,500 for a full roofline replacement including guttering and downpipes. Larger detached properties or those with hipped roofs will sit at the higher end. We always survey first and give you a written quote before any work starts.
Chimney flashing replacement in Wymondham generally costs between £300 and £700 for a standard single stack, depending on the size of the chimney and the number of lead sections involved. If the surrounding tiles or mortar pointing also need attention, that will be costed separately. We give you a clear written quote after inspecting the stack.
Most chimney rebuilds in Wymondham fall between £1,200 and £3,500, with scaffolding, new brickwork, lead flashing, and a ventilated cap all included. The main variables are the height of the stack and how far down we need to go to reach sound brickwork. We give a fixed price after inspection so you know exactly what you are paying.
Chimney take-downs in Wymondham generally cost between £900 and £2,500 for a standard single stack on a two-storey house, including scaffolding, demolition, and making good the roof covering. Larger stacks or more complex roof coverings such as plain clay tiles will sit at the higher end. We price each job after seeing the stack so there are no surprises.
