Pitched roofing in Kinver

Planning your roof work in Kinver

Work like this in Kinver rarely needs planning permission, but parts of the job must meet Building Regulations — certified electrical work, ventilation or energy-efficiency standards, for example. Your quote shows how each part is signed off. If planning does come into it, say for a listed building, South Staffordshire Council is the authority.

Changing to a different-looking tile in a conservation area may need planning consent.
Bats are protected by law, so work stops if signs of roosting are found in the loft or roof.
Dry-fix ridge systems avoid the cracked mortar that causes many ridge leaks.

Which option fits your home?

Full re-roof

Stripping the old covering and replacing it with new treated battens, breathable membrane and tiles or slates, with dry-fix ridges and verges and new flashings. A re-roof is the time to fix ventilation, upgrade loft insulation and replace damaged timbers. It's usually notified to building control or self-certified by a registered roofer.

Roof repairs

Replacing broken or slipped tiles, re-fixing loose verges, renewing lead flashings and tracing leaks. Repairs suit roofs that are mostly sound, with problems in one area. We use matching tiles where they're still made or reclaimed ones where they aren't, and we'll tell you honestly if repairs won't last.

Questions about pitched roofing in Kinver

Repair or replace: how do I know which my roof needs?

A roof usually needs replacing when the problems are widespread rather than local: the old felt has perished, nails have rusted so tiles slip all over, or tiles are flaking and porous. If the issues are in one area, such as a valley, ridge or flashing, a repair is usually enough. We show you photos from the survey so you can see the condition yourself.

What guarantee comes with a new roof?

The tiles, membrane and other materials come with the manufacturer's guarantee, and the terms for your roof are set out in your quote. You'll also receive the building regulations certificate or completion record for a re-roof, which a buyer's solicitor will ask about when you sell. Keep these with your house documents.

Who approves pitched roofing in Kinver?
