New Roofs in Richmond
New Roofs in Richmond
Natural slate is one of the most durable roof coverings available, and a well-laid slate roof keeps a building dry for a very long time. Quality varies by source, so the slate chosen matters as much as the fixing. Clay plain tiles are offered too, where the style of the building suits them better than slate. Ashlar Roofing installs new slate and tiled roofs in Richmond, across TW9 and TW10 within the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames.
Each slate is nailed or hooked to new treated battens over a breathable membrane, with gauge and lap set to suit the roof pitch. Lead flashings, soakers and valleys are renewed with the covering. Ridge and hip details are finished in tile or with a dry system to suit the roof. If your property is in a conservation area, Richmond upon Thames Council can advise on materials before you commit. The quote names the slate proposed so you can compare it.


What's included
What a Full Re-Roof Includes
The main parts of the job, each listed in your quote.
- Stripping the old tiles or slates, battens and underlay, so the new roof starts from the rafters with nothing hidden.
- Checking and repairing rafters and other timbers, giving the new covering a sound, level structure to sit on.
- New breathable membrane and treated battens, which keep wind-driven rain out and help the loft ventilate.
- Your choice of covering, including natural slate, clay or concrete tiles, to suit the property and any planning guidance.
- New ridge, hip and valley details, including dry ridge systems that are mechanically fixed rather than relying on mortar alone.
- Leadwork and flashings renewed where the roof meets chimneys, walls and dormers, the points most likely to leak.

Pricing
What a New Roof Costs in Richmond
Slate choice and detailing both affect what a Richmond re-roof costs, as do:
- The size and shape of the roof, including hips, valleys and dormers
- The covering chosen: natural slate, clay tiles or concrete tiles
- Scaffolding for safe access, which depends on the building's height and the street
- The condition of the rafters and any timber repairs found once the roof is stripped
- Extra work such as leadwork, chimney repairs, fascias, soffits or guttering
