Re-roofing
Full roof renewal when repairs are no longer the right long-term option.
Re-roofing.
A re-roof removes the existing covering so the roof build-up, battens, underlay, ventilation and junctions can be renewed as one coordinated system. JDL will first assess whether targeted repair or complete renewal is appropriate.
- Existing roof stripped safely
- Roof structure checked
- New weatherproofing system
- Clear scope before work starts

Read the guarantee informationCommon questions.
How do I know whether I need re-roofing?
Start with the problem you can see and how urgent it is. JDL will assess the roof, relevant details and access before setting out the appropriate work.
Can photographs help with the first assessment?
Yes. Ground-level or safely taken photographs can provide useful context. A final specification may still require an on-site roof survey.
What will the quotation include?
The written quotation sets out the proposed work, principal materials and the guarantee terms that apply to the specified work.
How soon will I receive my roofing quote?
