When patching stops making sense, a new roof is the answer. We strip, felt, batten and re-cover roofs in tiles or slate, then leave the site clean.
A full re-roof starts with the old covering coming off. Underneath, we check the timbers and the felt, put right anything that is not sound, then batten and re-cover the roof in tiles or slate. Ridges, hips, verges and flashings are finished at the same time, so you are not left with a new roof and old weak spots.
We work on terraces, semis, detached houses, bungalows, garages and outbuildings. If your house has a chimney, valleys or a flat section where the roof meets an extension, we will look at those as part of the same visit and tell you plainly what we think needs doing.
Plenty of roofs around Brighton and along the south coast are concrete interlocking tiles, clay plain tiles or natural slate. We will talk through what suits your house, how it will look from the street, and how it compares with what is on there now. Customers have told us they appreciated being walked through the options rather than being pushed towards one.
If your home is listed or in a conservation area, the choice of material can be restricted. Mention it when you call and we will take it into account.
How long a re-roof takes depends on the size of the roof, the complexity and the weather, and we will give you a realistic idea when we quote. Because the roof is open while the work is underway, we keep an eye on the forecast and protect the house as we go. When we finish, rubbish is cleared and the site is left tidy, something our reviewers mention often.

“The team did an excellent job of replacing my roof. They were really communicative, worked incredibly hard and got everything finished up really quickly Yes, there was the somewhat inevitable "more work needs to be done", but it was very genuine as the wood my fascias were hanging on to was completely rotten. They got the additional work finished off too, without any fuss.”
“I needed a new pitched roof and received about 5 roofing quotes through my Bark ad. James stood out as being very knowledgeable and was able to clearly and honestly articulate the work required and provide a reasonable quote. James and his team were able to start within a week. Regular updates. We were fussy about tiles and ridges; they made sure we were satisfied. The end result could not be faulted.”
“James was great from start to finish. He had quoted and finished the job (complete re-roof) before another contractor had even quoted. He had a team of 8 to complete the job in one week. Very attentive and always in communication.”
“Very happy with James Casey and his team of roofers who provided a complete roof replacement for my pitched roof. The team were Polite, flexible, provided a great standard of work, and decent price. In particular was happy to take the time to undertake other necessary related work that was identified on and around the roof within the quoted price. Helpful and professional. Highly recommended.”
A few slipped tiles or a failed flashing are usually repair jobs. A roof that keeps leaking in different places, has widespread cracked or crumbling tiles, or a sagging structure often points to replacement. We will look at it properly and give you an honest view, including when a repair is the sensible option.
