New Roofs for Homes in Wednesfield
Wednesfield’s estates were roofed in bulk in the fifties and sixties, which means whole streets are reaching re-roof age together. When the tiles have gone porous and the felt underneath is torn, patching becomes a subscription rather than a fix, and a strip and recover with new membrane, battens and dry-fixed ridges is the honest answer. We have done enough of these house types to quote them tightly.
We cover Wednesfield and the surrounding area: Ashmore Park, Wood End, Perry Hall, Fallings Heath, March End and beyond (WV11).

What’s Included
Bungalows are the other big re-roof job here. A bungalow re-roof on Ashmore Park is one of the quicker full roofs we do, lower scaffold, easy handling, often finished inside a few days, and it transforms a property that is otherwise sound.
- Stripped to the rafters, timbers checked and repaired
- Breathable membrane and treated battens throughout
- Concrete tile, clay tile, natural or fibre cement slate
- Dry ridge and dry verge systems as standard
- New lead flashings, chimney work while the scaffold is up
- Waste cleared daily, site left tidy
How It Works
New Roofs in Wednesfield, FAQs
Typically around three to four days from scaffold up, weather permitting. Bungalows are quicker and cheaper to re-roof than two-storey houses because the access is simpler, which is good news for a lot of Ashmore Park and Wood End.
If your roof is the same age and type as the neighbours being done, it is worth a free survey now. Catching it before the felt fails means you choose the timing rather than the weather choosing it for you, and nothing gets ruined in the loft first.
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.
