Concrete & Clay Tiled Re-⁠Roofs

Concrete and clay tiles cover most of the houses around Wokingham, and a tiled re-roof is often the most practical way to put an ageing roof right. The old tiles, battens and felt are stripped off, the rafters are checked, and the roof is built back up with fresh materials from the timbers outwards.

Interlocking concrete tiles are strong, quick to lay and come in a wide range of profiles and colours. Clay tiles weather to a warm, natural tone that suits older and character properties. Either way, each tile is fixed to new treated battens over a breathable membrane, so the roof stays secure in high winds.

Choosing a tile that matches the neighbouring roofs keeps the street looking right. You get a FREE, no-obligation quotation, clear advice on concrete or clay for your house, and a tidy site with the old materials taken away when the new roof is finished.

When to Call

Signs Your Tiled Roof Needs Replacing

  • Tiles Slipping Away

    Tiles sliding out across the whole slope usually mean the nails or battens beneath have rusted or rotted away.

  • Porous, Flaking Tiles

    Old concrete tiles that have lost their surface soak up rain, grow moss and get weaker with every winter.

  • Damp in the Loft

    Wet timbers or daylight showing through torn underfelt mean rain is getting past the tiles into the loft.

  • Patched Too Often

    A roof that needs a new repair every year is often better value re-tiled than fixed again, piece by piece, after every storm.

Pricing

What Affects the Cost of a Tiled Roof

Every roof is different, so the price is worked out once the roof has been looked at rather than guessed over the phone. These are the things that move it.

Tile Roofs work on a roof

FREE, No-Obligation Quotations

Every roof is looked at before it is priced, so the figure you get is the figure for your job. Your quotation costs nothing and commits you to nothing.

  • Concrete or Clay Tiles

    Clay tiles generally cost more than concrete and take longer to lay, which shows in the final price.

  • Roof Size & Shape

    A larger roof, or one with hips, valleys and dormers, needs more tiles and more cutting and fixing time.

  • Timbers Under the Tiles

    Any rafters found to be rotten or weak once the old roof is stripped are repaired before it is re-tiled.

  • Scaffold & Access

    The height of the house and the space around it decide how much scaffold is needed for safe working.

FAQs

Tiled Roof Questions Answered

Are Concrete or Clay Roof Tiles Better?

Concrete tiles are strong, cost less and come in many profiles. Clay tiles weather to a natural colour and suit older houses. Both make a durable roof when laid on new battens and membrane, so the choice usually comes down to looks, budget and matching the street.

Can New Roof Tiles Be Matched to the Houses Next Door?

In most cases, yes. Tiles are chosen to match the profile and colour of neighbouring roofs as closely as possible, which keeps the street looking consistent. We will show you the closest options before the quotation is agreed.

Can My Old Roof Tiles Be Reused?

Sometimes. Sound clay tiles can occasionally be reclaimed, but old concrete tiles are often porous and brittle by the time a roof needs replacing. We will check their condition and tell you honestly whether reusing them makes sense or would shorten the life of the new roof.

Why Do Roof Tiles Keep Slipping?

Usually because the nails have rusted through or the battens have rotted. One or two slipped tiles can be refixed, but if it is happening across the whole slope, the fixings have failed and re-tiling with new battens is the lasting answer.

Will Re-Tiling My Roof Stop the Damp in the Loft?

If the damp is coming from rain getting past old tiles and torn felt, yes. A new breathable membrane keeps driven rain out while letting moisture escape from the loft, which also helps reduce condensation in the roof space.
