How It Works
New Roofs in Telford, FAQs
It pays, same-age streets share scaffold logistics and material orders, and per-house prices drop when jobs run consecutively. The new town was built in batches; renewing in batches is the economical echo.
Entirely, project work suits the distance, one mobilisation, consecutive days on site, the M54 doing its job. It is scattered small jobs that punish distance, which is why we batch those instead.
The felt is usually the decider. If the membrane under the tiles has gone brittle and torn across large areas, every repair is temporary because water finds the next tear. Widespread nail failure and constant slipped tiles point the same way. We will tell you straight which category your roof is in, and quote a repair instead if that is the honest answer.
Ridge and hip tiles were traditionally bedded on mortar, which cracks with the seasons and eventually lets tiles come loose. A dry ridge system clamps them mechanically with screws and brackets, allows the roof to breathe, and does not need rebedding every few years. It costs a little more on day one and saves money every year after.
It comes down to the house, the street and the budget. Natural slate looks superb on older houses and lasts generations; fibre cement slate gives a similar look for less; concrete tiles are the workhorse choice. We bring samples and give you prices for each so you can compare properly.
