New Roofs

Complete Re-Roofing for Homes and Businesses

When a roof has reached the end of its life, patching it becomes a recurring cost. Tiles become porous, nails corrode and old bitumen felt turns brittle and tears. A new roof replaces the whole covering, so every layer from the battens up is new and works together to keep the weather out.

We strip the existing roof back to the rafters, check the timbers and fit a new breathable membrane, treated battens, your chosen tiles or slates, new leadwork and a new ridge. We work on houses, extensions and commercial buildings across Berkshire, south Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and west London, and you get a detailed quote before any work starts.

We cover the whole area, including new roofs in Maidenhead, Windsor and Beaconsfield.

Why choose us

Why Choose Reactive Roofing for Your New Roof

  • Every Layer Replaced

    We strip back to the rafters rather than overlaying old felt, so the membrane, battens, covering, leadwork and ridge are all new and fitted together.
  • Timbers Checked Before Covering

    With the roof open we check the rafters and timbers, and tell you about any rot or damage before the new membrane goes on.
  • Tile or Slate Coverings

    We fit concrete and clay tiles, including Marley, and natural slate, and can match the style of neighbouring roofs where that matters.
  • Insured and Checkatrade Vetted

    We are fully insured, including public liability, and have been vetted Checkatrade members since 2015, so you know who is working on your home.

Good to know

Frequently Asked New Roof Questions

How do I know if I need a new roof rather than repairs?

Repeated leaks in different places, widespread slipped or porous tiles, a sagging roof line and brittle, torn felt in the loft are common signs. We inspect the roof and tell you whether repairs will see it through or a re-roof makes more sense.

Do you replace the felt and battens on a re-roof?

Yes. On a complete re-roof we strip everything back to the rafters and fit a new breathable membrane and new treated battens. Reusing old battens under a new covering is a false economy, so we replace them.

Will I need planning permission for a new roof?

Replacing a roof like for like does not usually need planning permission. If your home is listed or in a conservation area, or you are changing the materials or roof shape, check with your local council before the work is booked.

Can you install roof windows as part of a new roof?

Yes. A re-roof is a good time to add Velux roof windows, as the roof is already open. Tell us where you would like them and we will include them in your detailed quote.
