New roofs and full re-roofs in Aylsham
Aylsham sits about 13 miles from Norwich, reached off the A140, and that position shapes the roof replacement & new roofs we do here. Most of our the NR11 postcode district jobs involve Georgian market-town frontages with natural slate and Victorian brick terraces, so we plan access, scaffold and materials around that before quoting. We know the streets around the Blickling Estate well, and the Bure Valley Railway is a useful marker when we arrange access.

Common roof problems around Aylsham
Georgian market-town roofs and modern estates.
Perished underfelt
Once the sarking felt below the tiles has torn or gone brittle, water reaching it runs straight into the loft. That is the point where re-covering beats another patch.
Batten decay and nail fatigue
Softwood battens and the nails holding the covering are the usual reason an otherwise sound-looking roof starts shedding tiles.
Domestic and commercial in one visit
We quote homes and small commercial premises on the same terms — inspection first, written specification second.

What happens after you call
Survey and scaffold design

Breather membrane, new graded battens, covering laid to the manufacturer's fixing pattern, dry-fix ridge and verge fitted.
Sign-off and clearance
Roof walked over, gutters cleared, scaffold struck and all waste taken away.
Roof Replacement & New Roofs FAQs
- How disruptive is a re-roof?
- Noisy for a few days and dusty in the loft, but you can stay in the house. Roofs are left weathertight overnight and we work around agreed hours.
- Will you need scaffold on a Aylsham property?
- For a full re-cover, yes — it's a working platform and an edge protection requirement, not an upsell. Scaffold is included and set out in the written quote.
- How do we know the roof needs replacing rather than repairing?
- The test is the felt and battens, not the tiles. Once the underfelt has perished, water that gets past a tile has nothing to stop it. We'll show you the state of it at the inspection and say plainly which side of the line your roof is on.
- Do you clear up afterwards?
- Yes. Scaffold is struck, waste removed and gutters cleared before we invoice.
- Where do you park the van and set up scaffold here?
- We agree that with you first. Around Aylsham Market Place the approaches can be tight, so unloading and scaffold positions are planned before the work starts rather than sorted out on the morning.
