What's involved

New Roofs in Cromer

A new roof is one of the most significant investments you'll make in a property, and getting the specification right from the start saves money and headaches for decades. We install new roofs on everything from traditional Norfolk flint cottages and Victorian terraces to modern new-builds and single-storey extensions across Cromer, Sheringham, North Walsham and the surrounding villages.

The work starts with a thorough survey of the structure — checking rafter sizes, fascias, soffits and ventilation before a single tile goes on. For pitched roofs in Cromer, we typically work with natural slate or concrete interlocking tiles, both of which handle the salt-laden coastal winds better than cheaper alternatives. We install breathable underlays, properly sized guttering, and all lead flashing to valleys and abutments as standard — nothing is treated as an optional extra.

Installing a roof yourself is not something we'd recommend to anyone. Working at height without proper access equipment and fall-arrest systems is genuinely dangerous, and an incorrectly installed roof can void your buildings insurance. A roofer who cuts corners on felt, battens or fixings creates problems that don't show up until the first serious storm — by which point the damage bill far outweighs any saving made upfront.

We'll visit the site, take measurements and provide a written, itemised quote — usually within a few days of your enquiry. Most new roof installations on a standard three-bedroom house take three to five working days, weather permitting. We leave the site clean and tidy each day, and all our work is covered by a ten-year workmanship guarantee alongside manufacturer warranties on materials.

New pitched roof installation in Cromer typically costs between £5,500 and £12,000 depending on roof area, pitch, material choice and access requirements.

Questions

What people ask first.

A new pitched roof on a standard three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cromer typically costs between £5,500 and £12,000. The final figure depends on the roof area, pitch angle, your choice of materials — natural slate costs more than concrete tiles — and how easy it is to access the property. We provide a free, itemised written quote so there are no surprises.
If you're having the same sections repaired repeatedly, if the felt underneath is visibly sagging or rotted, or if more than 20–25% of the tiles are cracked, slipped or missing, a full replacement is usually more cost-effective. We offer a free roof survey in Cromer and will give you an honest assessment — we won't recommend a replacement if a good repair will do the job.
Most standard roof repairs in Cromer — replacing a handful of slipped tiles, repointing ridge mortar or resealing a flashing — cost between £150 and £600. Jobs that require scaffolding, such as chimney repairs or work on a steeply pitched roof, will cost more. We'll assess the job first and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Flat roofs in Cromer typically cost between £70 and £120 per square metre installed, so a standard single-garage roof of around 15–18 square metres would cost roughly £1,050 to £2,160. GRP fibreglass sits at the higher end of that range, reinforced felt at the lower end. We provide a free survey and written quote for all flat roofing work.
Fascia and soffit replacement in Cromer typically costs £80–£120 per linear metre for a full strip-and-replace using UPVC, including disposal of the old material. A standard semi-detached property usually runs to around £600–£1,000 for the full roofline. We provide a fixed written quote after inspecting the job, so you won't face unexpected extras.
The most common signs are a damp patch on the ceiling near a chimney breast or dormer window, particularly after heavy or wind-driven rain. You may also see the lead itself has lifted, cracked, or been patched with grey mastic or flashing tape. If a ceiling stain reappears after being replastered, there's a good chance the lead joint above it has never been properly addressed.
A partial chimney rebuild from the flashing line upwards on a standard terraced or semi-detached property in Cromer typically costs £800–£1,800, including new lead flashings and re-bedding the pots. A full rebuild down to roof level will cost more, depending on the height of the stack and the availability of matching brick. We provide a fixed price after inspecting from scaffold — never from the ground.
Chimney take-downs in Cromer typically cost £600–£1,400 for the full job, including scaffold, brick removal, making good the roof covering, and disposal of all material. The final price depends on how high the stack is above the roof line, the type of roof covering, and ease of access. We include everything in a single fixed price so there are no additions on the day.
