Overview

## When a new roof is the smarter investment

Re-roofing means stripping the existing roof covering back to the rafters and rebuilding it: new breathable membrane, new treated battens, and new or carefully reclaimed tiles or slates, finished with new ridges, verges and flashings.

It is the right choice when repairs have stopped being value for money. Typical signs are repeated leaks in different places, sagging or bowed roof lines, widespread slipped tiles, perished felt visible from the loft, or a roof that is simply at the end of its life.

A re-roof is a large decision, so Travis inspects first, photographs the condition of the felt, battens and timbers, and explains honestly whether you need a full re-roof, a partial re-roof or targeted repairs. You get a fixed price, a clear timescale and regular updates as the job progresses.

The risk of waiting

## The real cost of putting off a re-roof
A roof at the end of its life fails gradually, then all at once. Delaying the decision usually makes it more expensive.

### Repair bills keep coming
Each patch costs money but does nothing about the underlying failed felt and battens.

### Timbers deteriorate
Long-term damp can affect rafters and wall plates, adding structural work to the eventual re-roof.

### Internal damage
Stained ceilings, wet insulation and mould add redecorating costs on top of roofing.

### Property value suffers
Surveyors flag failing roofs, which can delay or reduce a sale.

### Storm risk increases
Weak fixings and brittle tiles are more likely to fail in high winds.

### Common mistakes homeowners make

- Overlaying problems with repeated patch repairs instead of addressing a failed membrane.
- Choosing on price alone and ending up with poor battening, wrong fixings or no proper ventilation.
- Not asking what happens to the timbers if rot is found once the roof is stripped.

Warning signs

## Signs you need re-roofing &amp; new roofs

- Repeated leaks in different areas of the roof
- A dipping or sagging roof line visible from the street
- Perished, torn or crumbling felt seen from the loft
- Large numbers of slipped, cracked or delaminating tiles
- Repair quotes that keep getting bigger every year
- A surveyor flagging the roof as near the end of its life

Pricing

## What affects the price
We don&#x27;t publish prices because every roof is different. After a free inspection you get one fixed price. These are the things that shape it.

### Roof size and shape
Hips, valleys, dormers and chimneys all add detail and time compared with a simple gable roof.

### Covering choice
Concrete tiles, clay tiles and natural slate each have different material and labour costs.

### Timber condition
Sound rafters keep costs down. Rot found once the roof is stripped is shown to you with photos and priced before any work.

### Access and scaffolding
Height, garden access and neighbouring properties all affect the scaffold needed.

In detail

## Re-roofing materials and methods explained
The right roof depends on your property, local planning character and budget. These are the options we discuss with most Somerset homeowners.

“Travis is great to work with and matched up to all the other great reviews I found on this supplier. Great communication, professional job, tidy, trustworthy and customer focused. In short, you get everything it says on the tin! Highly recommended.”Gregory A · BA14 · Checkatrade

### Concrete interlocking tiles
Interlocking concrete tiles are the most common covering on post-war and modern homes in Street, Bridgwater and Weston-super-Mare. They are hard-wearing, cost-effective and quick to lay, and modern profiles are available in a range of colours to suit the area.

### Clay tiles
Clay plain tiles and clay interlocking tiles suit older and character properties. They hold their colour well and age attractively, which matters in conservation-minded towns such as Wells and Glastonbury.

### Natural slate
Slate is long-lasting and traditional, and is often found on Victorian terraces. It is laid with careful gauging and fixed with nails or hooks. Where existing slates are sound, reclaiming some of them can keep the roof&#x27;s character.

### Membranes, battens and ventilation
Underneath the visible covering, a breathable membrane and treated battens are what keep the roof dry and secure. Proper ventilation at the eaves and ridge prevents condensation building up in the loft, something often missed on cheaper jobs.

### Dry-fix systems
Dry ridge and dry verge systems mechanically fix the most exposed parts of the roof rather than relying solely on mortar. They reduce maintenance and are well suited to exposed sites on the Mendips and Somerset Levels.

Why homeowners choose Travis

## Why choose TB Roofing and Property Maintenance for re-roofing &amp; new roofs

### You deal with the roofer, not a salesman

Work is guaranteed, and the terms for your job are confirmed in writing with the quote. Reviews regularly mention turning up on time, working tidily and finishing on budget.

Local knowledge

## Re-Roofing &amp; New Roofs across Glastonbury &amp; Somerset

Many homes around Glastonbury, Shepton Mallet and Frome still have their original roof coverings, which are now well beyond their designed life. The felt underneath, where there is any, has often perished completely, even when the tiles still look reasonable from the ground.

We have re-roofed properties across the towns we cover, including older buildings where beams needed replacing. One customer&#x27;s 1850 property was refelted and tiled in 2022, and they report no issues since.

Every job is handled by Travis Biddle personally, with 10 years in the trade, £1 million public liability insurance and a 9.96/10 Checkatrade rating. You get a fixed price after a free inspection, photo evidence of any problem, and nothing added without your agreement.
