Roofing Service
New Roofs
Full re-roofing and new-build roof installations for residential and commercial properties across Berkshire and London, carried out by Legacy Roofing based in Wokingham.
A new roof is one of the most significant investments you will make in a property — and done properly, it should not need revisiting for decades. Legacy Roofing installs new roofs across Berkshire and London, working on everything from straightforward strip-and-retile jobs to full structural re-roofs where battens, felt underlayer, and covering all need renewing.
We begin with a proper survey. That means getting up on the roof, assessing the condition of the existing timbers, checking for any areas where the deck or rafters have been affected by long-term moisture, and understanding what the property actually needs — not just what is cheapest to quote. Where structural timbers are sound we strip back to the rafters, lay a quality breathable membrane, batten out, and tile or slate in the agreed covering. Where timbers have deteriorated we can handle the structural carpentry before the new covering goes on.
Material choice matters and we take time to help you understand the options. Natural Welsh slate has a different look and longevity profile from concrete interlocking tiles; clay plain tiles sit differently on a low-pitch roof compared to a steep Victorian terrace. We will help you make a choice that suits the property, the planning context, and your budget — without steering you toward whichever material is easiest for us to source that week.
