The work
New Roofs for Feltham homes
Feltham is a short run for us, so a look at a new roofs job here is a visit rather than a day of travel priced into the quote. We work across TW13 and out into Hounslow, Ashford, Hanworth, Bedfont, Hampton.
When a roof has had its last patch, replacing the covering costs less than another five years of call-outs. We strip the old tiles or slates, take the felt off and look at the battens and rafters underneath, because that is where the real condition of a roof shows.
From there the roof goes back together in the right order: breathable membrane, new treated battens, the covering you have chosen, and lead or proprietary flashings at every abutment. Ridge and hip lines are finished dry rather than bedded in mortar, so there is nothing to crack and drop out in a few winters.

What new roofs covers
The options
New Roofs in Feltham: which system
We fit all of these across Feltham. Which one suits depends on the roof you have, the span, and what you want out of it - so here is the honest difference between them.
Tiled roofs
Clay and concrete tiles last a long time when the roof under them is sound. What usually gives up first is the fixing and the detailing: nails corroding, battens softening, and mortar bedding on the ridge and hips cracking away.
We fit complete tiled roofs in plain tile or interlocking concrete, over breathable membrane and new treated battens, and we match existing profiles wherever the product is still made.
- Plain and interlocking tile
- Laid over breathable membrane and new treated battens, ridge and verge dry fixed.
- Valleys
- Lead or GRP valley linings renewed where the old one has split or silted up.
Slate roofs
A slate roof usually fails at its fixings long before the slate itself wears out. Nail sickness is the common story: iron nails corrode, slates start to slide, and someone clips a lead tingle on to hold them. A roof with tingles across it is telling you it wants re-slating.
We re-slate in natural Welsh or Spanish slate, and in fibre-cement where budget or weight makes that the sensible choice. Headlap is set for the pitch, slates are holed and nailed in copper, and hips, valleys and abutments are finished in lead.
- Full re-slating
- Strip, new membrane and battens, then slate laid to the correct headlap for the pitch.
- Salvage and reuse
- Where existing slate is sound we sort and re-lay what we can, then make up the shortfall.
Dry ridge and dry verge
Bedding ridge tiles in mortar was standard for a century, and it has one weakness: the roof moves and the mortar does not. Hairline cracks open, water gets behind the tile, frost widens the crack, and a section of ridge ends up loose.
Dry fixing solves it differently. A ventilated ridge roll seals the gap and lets air out of the roof space, and every ridge tile is screwed to a batten through a clamp. Nothing relies on mortar, and the ridge line stays put in wind. We fit it as standard on anything we rebuild, and as a standalone job on a roof that is otherwise sound.
- Ventilated ridge roll
- Laid over the apex to seal the gap and vent the roof space, every tile screwed through a clamp.
- Dry verge units
- Interlocking verge caps to replace failed mortar at the gable end.
The process
How a new roofs job runs in Feltham
Step 01
Look at the roof
We come out, get up where we need to, and tell you whether the roof needs replacing or repairing.
Step 02
Written quote
A price in writing naming the covering, the access and what is included, so you can compare it with anyone else.
Step 03
Access and protection
Scaffold goes up and the areas below get covered before a single tile moves.
Step 04
Strip, rebuild, clear
The roof is rebuilt in stages so it is never left open, then the site is swept and the scaffold comes down.

The price
New Roofs costs
What new roofs costs comes down to what you actually have, not a price list. Two jobs that sound identical can be an hour of work or a week of it, which is why we do not price roofing over the phone. We come and look, then put a figure in writing.
- Roof size and pitch, and how many valleys, hips and dormers it has.
- The covering you choose: concrete interlocking, plain tile, fibre-cement or natural slate.
- Access, and whether the scaffold needs a pavement licence.
- Anything found once the roof is open, such as split rafters or rotten spar ends.
