Roof Replacement Protects Bournemouth Homes
The local salty sea air damages roofs quickly in Bournemouth. Homes in Boscombe and Southbourne get hit hardest. When your roof hits 40 years old or leaks in many spots, you need a full replacement.
A new roof stops these repeated roof repairs costs. You will get over 50 years of protection with new roofing. A full replacement fixes rotten battens, worn underlays, and damaged tiles that repairs can't solve.
Choosing the Right Roofing Materials
The material choice of the roofing repair affects how long your roof lasts. Our roofing services use concrete tiles as they work well on Bournemouth's windy coast.
Your home's style and budget help to decide which to use. Each material lasts a different amount of time and they all need different care. We help you pick the right balance for your Bournemouth roof and the material you choose protects your home.
Professional Roof Replacement Process
We put up scaffolding around your home first. We strip off all the old roof and check the wood underneath. Some areas in Bournemouth need special licences for scaffolding on pavements.
We then replace broken battens and fit new underlays. We then fit your new tiles or slates with the replacement roof. We clean up rubbish every day. Our roofers will keep you updated throughout the roof restoration.
Full Roof Replacement Timeline
Most jobs in Bournemouth take 5 to 8 days. The timescale depends on your roof size and the weather. We work around your daily routine to cause less bother. Autumn can slow things down on exposed properties.
We watch the weather forecast closely and book work during dry spells. We will tell you about any changes to the schedule of the replacement roof.
Signs Your Roof Needs Replacement
Leaks in many places mean repairs won't work. Sagging sections show problems underneath and any slipped tiles after winter storms show the battens have failed.
When your Bournemouth roof reaches 50 years old, it needs replacing. Fixing the same spots over and over costs more than one new roof. We check if repairs will last or if a new roof saves money. Catching problems early stops water damage inside your home.
Preparing Your Property for Roof Repair
Preparing the property keeps the job moving smoothly. Move cars away from the house for space for scaffolding and materials.
Clear your loft so we can check from inside and put dust sheets over things in the loft. Remember to tell your neighbours about the work dates. With narrow streets around Bournemouth, we sort out parking for different delivery plans.
Warranty and Guarantees on Roof Work
We give you written guarantees on all work and materials. Our work guarantee lasts 10 years from when we finish. Material guarantees vary but usually last 15 to 50 years. This depends on what you choose.
You get all the warranty papers when we finish and these protect your money long-term. We use approved installers who meet the rules for warranties to work. Any problems during the guarantee period get fixed quickly at no extra roof cost.
