*Confirm current coverage, duration, conditions and exclusions in the written quotation.
Renewal of deteriorated roofs, including appropriate underlying roofing components.
Tile, slate, felt, GRP and EPDM roofing systems for suitable properties.
Roof coverings, underlay, drainage, ventilation and flashings need to work together.
A new roof should solve more than the visible problem.
Replacing a roof is a substantial investment in your property. It is an opportunity to address deteriorated coverings and review the construction beneath them.
A new roof installation may involve removing old tiles or slates, examining the condition of the structure, replacing suitable underlay and battens, and installing new coverings with correctly detailed edges and junctions.
On flat roofs, the relevant considerations differ. Decking, insulation, waterproofing, falls and drainage all affect the finished installation.
The exact work depends on the roof and what is being retained, repaired or renewed. A meaningful quotation should make those distinctions clear.
New tiled, slate and flat roof installations.
Different roof coverings are suited to different structures, pitches and architectural requirements. The choice should reflect the building as well as the intended finish.
Concrete and clay tiled roofs
New tiled roofing for suitable pitched roof structures. Tile profiles, weight, minimum pitch, fixing specification and appearance all influence the choice.

Slate roofing installations and replacements where suitable for the building. Correct fixing, overlap, battens and roof pitch are essential.

Ask about re-roofingThe roof structure, pitch, exposure and appearance can help determine which covering is appropriate.
Is your existing roof approaching the end of its life?
Not every roof leak requires a new roof. However, several recurring problems or extensive deterioration may indicate that further patch repairs are becoming less practical.
Water ingress keeps returning
Repeated leaks in different areas may indicate broader deterioration rather than one isolated repairable defect.
Widespread tile or slate damage
Numerous slipped, broken or deteriorated coverings can make local repairs increasingly difficult or uneconomical.
Deteriorating underlay and battens
Where underlying roofing components are failing, simply replacing individual tiles may not address the problem.
Extensive weather-related damage
Significant wind or storm damage may affect multiple roof areas and require wider investigation before deciding on remedial work.
Widespread membrane deterioration
An ageing flat roof with repeated failures, poor adhesion or damaged underlying decking may warrant full replacement.
Movement or visibly uneven roof lines
Visible deflection, sagging or suspected structural damage needs appropriate assessment. A new covering alone may not resolve these problems.
A roof may still be suitable for local repairs if the surrounding materials and structure remain serviceable. Where structural distress is suspected, competent structural assessment may also be required. The appropriate decision should follow the condition of the roof.

Use these interactive comparisons for genuine completed Hightop re-roofing and new roof installation projects. Matching before-and-after images can demonstrate both the original condition and the finished roof.
These are demonstration placeholders. Replace each pair with photographs of the same genuine project, ideally taken from the same position and angle.
The finished tiles are only one part of the installation.
A pitched roof consists of several components that work together to protect the building. Re-roofing provides an opportunity to review their condition.
When existing tiles or slates are removed, it may become possible to identify deterioration in battens, underlay, fixings, roof edges and other components previously concealed.
Some installations will require additional work to existing timbers, insulation or ventilation. What is necessary depends on the actual roof construction and condition.
Roof covering
Tiles or slates selected for the structure, pitch and required appearance.
Underlay
A suitable secondary weather barrier beneath the outer roofing covering.
Roofing battens
Correctly specified and fixed battens to support the selected roof covering.
Ridge and verge details
Appropriate fixing and weatherproofing of exposed roof ridges and edges.
Flashings and valleys
Correct treatment where roof slopes meet and coverings adjoin walls, chimneys or other features.
Eaves and ventilation
Roof-edge weatherproofing, drainage and suitable ventilation arrangements.
Changing from one roof covering to another can alter the load on the building. The suitability of the roof structure must be considered, particularly where materials differ significantly in weight. Structural assessment may be necessary before the change.
When is a completely new roof worth considering?
Replacing a roof prematurely creates unnecessary expense. However, continual repairs to a widely deteriorated roof may not be the most sensible long-term option.
When repairs may be sufficient
A targeted repair may be practical where damage is limited and the surrounding roof remains generally serviceable.
- Damage is confined to a small area.
- The surrounding tiles or slates remain sound.
- The relevant underlying components are suitable.
- The defect has an identifiable repairable cause.
- A reliable repair can be carried out safely.
When re-roofing may be appropriate
A new roof may be justified where widespread deterioration affects the covering or underlying construction, or repeated repairs are no longer reliable.
- Large areas of roof covering have deteriorated.
- Leaks recur in several different locations.
- Underlay or battens require widespread renewal.
- Extensive damage makes patch repairs impractical.
- A coordinated replacement addresses several defects.
A quotation should distinguish between covering replacement, supporting-material repairs and any additional construction or compliance work. Unexpected concealed damage may only become apparent once the existing covering is removed.
Building Regulations, insulation and structural requirements.
Complete re-roofing is different from replacing a handful of damaged tiles. Depending on the proposed work, Building Regulations approval and other requirements may apply.
In England, substantial re-roofing, changes affecting the structure or significant changes to the roof covering can trigger building control requirements.
Re-roofing may also provide an opportunity, or a requirement, to improve thermal insulation. The correct approach depends on the existing construction and applicable regulations.
Ordinary like-for-like replacement may not always require planning permission, but listed buildings, designated areas and changes to roof appearance can affect what is permitted.
Structural suitability
Can the existing roof structure safely support the proposed covering?
Thermal performance
Does the scope of work trigger insulation improvement requirements?
Ventilation
How will suitable airflow and condensation control be maintained?
Fire performance
Does the selected covering comply with the applicable roof and building requirements?
Roof appearance
Are planning restrictions relevant to proposed material or design changes?
Building control
Is notification, approval or inspection required for this particular project?
Building Regulations and planning requirements depend on the property and the proposed work. See the Planning Portal guidance for existing roofs and confirm requirements with the relevant local authority or building control body.
From initial assessment to your new roof.
A full roof replacement should have a clearly understood scope before work begins. The precise sequence depends on the roof, access, materials and site conditions.

How much does a new roof cost?
The cost of a new roof depends on the building, roof size, chosen materials and the condition of the existing construction.
A straightforward pitched roof replacement is a different project from a complex roof with multiple valleys, dormers, chimneys and difficult access.
Removing the existing covering, replacing deteriorated roofing components and meeting applicable insulation or structural requirements may all influence the scope and cost.
A quotation should be based on the proposed works rather than an unreliable generic price for every property.

The overall area, pitch, number of slopes and architectural features.
Roofing material
Tile, slate or flat-roof system selection and specification.
Existing condition
Whether underlay, battens, decking or other components require replacement.
Roof details
Chimneys, valleys, ridges, verges, flashings and other junctions.
Insulation and ventilation

New roof installations: questions answered.
How do I know if I need a new roof?
A new roof may be worth considering where the covering has deteriorated extensively, leaks occur repeatedly or underlying roofing components require widespread renewal. However, localised faults can sometimes be repaired without replacing the whole roof. The decision should follow an assessment of its condition.
How much does a new roof cost in Doncaster?
The cost depends on the property, roof size, pitch, materials, access arrangements and the extent of work beneath the existing covering. Hightop can provide a quotation based on the proposed work rather than an unreliable universal price.
Do you install both tiled and slate roofs?
Yes. Hightop's new roofing services include tiled and slate roofing as well as suitable flat roofing systems. The choice of covering depends on the roof structure, pitch, weight, appearance and other relevant requirements.
Can you replace my entire roof rather than repairing it?
Yes. Hightop undertakes full roof replacements as well as localised repairs. The proposed work should distinguish between what can be retained and what needs renewing.
How long does a roof replacement take?
The duration depends on the size and complexity of the roof, existing condition, access, materials and weather. Additional repairs discovered after removing an old covering can also affect the schedule. The expected programme should be discussed for the individual project.
Do you remove the old tiles and roofing materials?
Full re-roofing commonly involves removing existing coverings and other components that require replacement. The scope of removal, disposal and materials to be retained should be clearly identified in the written quotation.
Will the roof battens and underlay be replaced?
That depends on the proposed re-roofing work and the condition of the existing materials. On a full pitched roof replacement, renewed underlay and battens may form part of the installation. The quotation should state which components are included.
Can I change from slate to roof tiles?
A change may be possible, but the roof pitch, structural capacity, weight, appearance, fixing specification and relevant regulatory requirements need consideration. A change in covering weight may require structural assessment or additional work.
Do I need planning permission for a new roof?
A straightforward like-for-like re-roofing of a house will not normally require planning permission if it does not materially change the building's external appearance. Different rules can apply to listed buildings, designated areas and significant alterations. Check the requirements for your particular property.
Does replacing a roof require Building Regulations approval?
Substantial re-roofing work may require Building Regulations approval. Requirements can relate to thermal performance, fire safety, structural alterations and changes in roof-covering weight. The applicable requirements depend on the proposed works. See Planning Portal re-roofing guidance .
Will a new roof improve my home's insulation?
It can provide an opportunity to improve thermal performance, and certain replacement projects may require insulation upgrades. A new covering alone does not automatically improve insulation. The result depends on the existing building, roof design and works included.
Can a new roof be installed during winter?
Some roofing work can take place throughout the year, but safe working conditions are essential. High winds, snow, ice, heavy rain and temperatures unsuitable for particular materials can affect the schedule. The work should be planned around safety and the chosen roofing system.
Does Hightop offer a warranty on new roofs?
Hightop's existing new roof installation page advertises a 10-year warranty on new roofs. The current warranty, what it covers, who provides it and any conditions or exclusions should be confirmed in writing before work begins.
Can you install a new roof on an extension?
Hightop provides suitable pitched and flat roofing installations, including roofing enquiries for extensions. The chosen system must suit the new structure, drawings, roof pitch and applicable construction requirements.
Can I stay in my property during a roof replacement?
Occupation during re-roofing depends on the building and scope of work. Many replacement projects can be planned while the property remains occupied, but access, noise, temporary weather protection and safety arrangements must be considered.
