Tiled Roof Repairs and Re-Tiling in Welwyn Garden City

Heavier tiles put more weight on the rafters, so swapping one tile for another is not always a straight exchange. Before any re-tile in Welwyn Garden City, TNR Roofing Services checks the timbers and strengthens them where needed, then lays concrete, clay or plain tiles to suit the house and your budget.

For homes and commercial properties in AL7 and AL8, our tilers work from a base in Hemel Hempstead. If your home is listed or in a conservation area, Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council can confirm any rules on tiles, and we can advise on options that keep the roof's appearance.

What's included

Our Tiled Roof Services in Welwyn Garden City

The main parts of the job, each listed in your quote.

  • Cracked, slipped or missing tiles replaced and matched to your roof as closely as current products allow.
  • Concrete interlocking tiles laid where a durable covering at a sensible cost is the priority.
  • Clay and plain tiles fitted where the building's age or a conservation setting calls for a traditional finish.
  • Worn tiles, perished felt and tired battens stripped, with new underlay and battens fixed at the gauge the tile needs.
  • Ridge and hip tiles refixed or renewed and valleys formed so the joins between slopes shed water cleanly.
  • Rafters checked before re-tiling, and strengthened where a heavier tile is going on.

Pricing

How We Price Tiled Roofs in Welwyn Garden City

Tiled roof quotes in Welwyn Garden City reflect these factors, all looked at during your free survey:

  • The tile chosen, as concrete interlocking tiles usually cost less to buy and lay than clay or plain tiles
  • How many tiles are needed per square metre, since small plain tiles take far more pieces and fixings
  • The roof pitch, which limits the tiles that can be used and affects how quickly they can be laid safely
  • Any strengthening the rafters need if the new tiles are heavier than the old covering
  • The length of ridges, hips and valleys, plus abutments against walls and chimneys that need flashing

How it works

What to Expect from Re-Tiling in Welwyn Garden City

What happens from your first call to the finished work.

  1. Free Tiled Roof Survey

    We look at the tiles, ridges, hips and valleys, measure the pitch and check the rafters and battens, so the quote is based on the whole roof and not only the damage you can see.

  2. Repair or Re-Tile Quote

    You get a no-obligation quote that says plainly if a repair will do or a re-tile is due, with our advice on concrete, clay or plain tiles for your roof and budget.

  3. Tiling the Roof

    For a re-tile, the old covering comes off, the roof is kept covered while open, new underlay and battens go on, and tiles are laid from the eaves up with ridges, hips, valleys and flashings formed.

  4. Final Review

    Old tiles and battens are cleared from site, then we review the completed work with you and confirm everything has been done as agreed.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Will new tiles be heavier than my old ones?

It depends on what is on the roof now and what you choose. Moving to a heavier tile can mean the rafters need strengthening, which we check at the survey and include in the quote if required.

Can you replace only the ridge tiles?

Yes, if the rest of the covering is sound. Damaged or loose ridge and hip tiles can be renewed on their own, matched to the existing roof as closely as current products allow.

Does Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council need to approve new roof tiles?

Generally not for like-for-like replacement. Listed buildings and homes in conservation areas in AL7 and AL8 can be different, so check with the council before changing the tile type.

How long does re-tiling take?

It depends on the size and pitch of the roof, the tile chosen and what we find once the old covering is off. Your quote includes a rough timescale, so you can plan around the re-tiling.
