Service

New roof installations

A new roof is the job when repairs will not hold: tiles are failing across the slope, the felt has gone, or a flat roof has been patched too many times. Proofcare Ltd is a roofing company based in Bracknell, run by Tomas Palka. We fit new pitched and flat roofs across Berkshire, Surrey, north Hampshire, Buckinghamshire and Slough, Oxfordshire and west London.

Coverings

What we install

  • Concrete interlocking tiles, the usual covering on most houses in this area
  • Clay tiles, where the house already has them or you want that finish
  • Natural slate
  • Flat roofs in EPDM rubber, felt or GRP, on garages, extensions, dormers and porches

Pitched re-roof

What a pitched re-roof includes

  • Scaffold or safe access, priced in the quote.
  • Strip the old tiles or slates, felt and battens.
  • Check the rafters. Soft or rotten timber is replaced before the new roof goes on.
  • New breathable membrane and treated battens.
  • Tiles or slates laid from the eaves up and mechanically fixed. Mortar alone is no longer enough to hold hips and ridges.
  • New lead at chimneys, walls and valleys.
  • Ridges, verges and a check that water sheds properly.

Compliance

Building regulations

A like-for-like repair of a small area is usually maintenance. A full re-roof, where most of the covering is replaced, is normally notifiable under Building Regulations, and insulation may need upgrading. Planning permission is not usually needed if the look stays the same. It can be needed in a conservation area, on a listed building, or if the material or the roofline changes. We tell you what applies to your roof before work starts.

Advice

Repair or new roof

We will say if a repair is enough. A new roof makes sense when the covering is failing in more than one place, the membrane has perished, or you are already paying for repeat leaks.
