NEW ROOFS

New tiled and slate roofs
built for lasting protection.

Complete pitched roof replacement for homes and properties across Harrow, Ruislip, Northwood, Ickenham and surrounding areas.

LOCAL ROOFING SPECIALISTS

A complete new roof, carefully planned.

A new roof may be appropriate when an existing roof has reached the end of its practical life, when repeated repairs are no longer economical, or when a property is being extended or substantially renovated. Jakeman Roofing Ltd can inspect the existing roof and explain the available options before work is agreed.

A typical pitched roof replacement can involve removing the old covering, checking the supporting roof structure, installing breathable membrane and treated battens, and laying suitable tiles or slates. Ridge, verge, valley and lead details are considered as part of the complete roof rather than treated as afterthoughts.

We work on new roofs and re-roofing projects in Harrow, Ruislip, Northwood, Ickenham and nearby West London areas. The exact specification depends on the building, roof pitch, planning requirements, ventilation and the materials selected.

USEFUL INFORMATION

What this service covers

01

Tiled roof replacement

Concrete and clay roof tiles are available in many profiles and colours. The right choice should suit the pitch, structure and appearance of the property while providing reliable weather protection.

02

Slate roofing

Natural or suitable man-made slates can provide a clean, durable finish. Correct setting out, fixing, lap and detailing are essential to the finished roof.

03

Battens, membrane and ventilation

The components beneath the visible tiles are an important part of a roof system. Membrane, battens and ventilation should be specified and fitted for the particular roof.

04

Extensions and additions

New pitched roofs can be formed over extensions, porches and other additions. Materials and details can be selected to complement the main building where practical.

05

Valleys, ridges and verges

Junctions and edges receive concentrated weather exposure. Careful detailing around valleys, ridge lines, verges and abutments helps the whole roof perform properly.

06

Clear project planning

Before work begins, the scope should identify the proposed covering, associated details and any visible defects that may need further attention once the roof is opened.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Questions about
new roofs

Every roof and property is different. Contact Jakeman Roofing Ltd for advice based on the condition of your roof.

How do I know whether I need a new roof or a repair?

The condition and age of the covering, the extent of defects and the cost of repeated repairs all matter. An inspection can help determine whether a targeted repair or full replacement is the more sensible option.

Can new roof tiles match the existing property?

Tiles or slates can usually be selected with the building style and surrounding roofs in mind. Availability, roof pitch and any planning restrictions also need to be considered.

Do you replace roofs on extensions and garages?

Jakeman Roofing undertakes roofing for different parts of domestic properties. The suitable system depends on whether the roof is pitched or flat and on the structure beneath it.
