Survey and Specification for Tile Hill Properties
Every re-roof in Tile Hill starts with a thorough survey. For Tile Hill’s post-war 1950s and 1960s council and private estates, we check felt condition, batten integrity, rafter timbers and ridge board before quoting. We won’t sell you a new roof without identifying whether it’s genuinely needed — if targeted repair is a better option, we’ll say so.
The Re-Roofing Process for Tile Hill Homes
A full re-roof on a typical Tile Hill property involves stripping the existing tile and batten, fitting new breathable membrane, re-battening to current specification and tiling with your chosen profile. For Tile Hill’s post-war 1950s and 1960s council and private estates we use Marley, Redland and Sandtoft profiles as appropriate. The average 3-bed semi in CV4 takes 3–5 days.
How Long a New Tile Hill Roof Will Last
A correctly installed concrete tile roof on a Tile Hill property has a design life of 50–60 years. Clay tiles last 80–100 years. The key variable is specification — correct felt, correct batten gauge, correct fixing density for Tile Hill’s western edge of Coventry with elevated position and greater south-westerly storm exposure. We build to last, not to the minimum.
Typical Pricing
