If your roof has begun to show signs of wear and tear, it could be time to undergo flat roof repairs or a new flat roof installation. Providing a range of roofing services to clients in Dorking and the surrounding Surrey area, our skilled domestic roofers are on hand to ensure the job is completed safely, examining all related elements, including guttering, fascias and soffits.
On this page, we provide a step-by-step guide to our re-roofing process. We also invite you to contact our team to schedule a consultation, where we can discuss your upcoming project in detail.
The first step in any re-roofing project is a thorough inspection. Our team will inspect for leaks, loose tiles, and damaged underlayment, and assess whether repairs or a complete re-roofing is the best course of action. Planning at this stage also involves choosing the right materials, whether you prefer traditional slate roofing for a timeless look or more modern alternatives.
Once the inspection is complete and materials are chosen, the old roof covering needs to be stripped away. This involves carefully removing old tiles, shingles, or felt. At this stage, issues with timberwork, insulation, fascias and soffits, or even chimney repairs may come to light, making it easier to address them before the new system is installed.
Before installing your new flat roof, our domestic roofers will complete structural checks of your Dorking home. Roofing improvements, such as reinforcing weak joists or laying new membranes, are made. This stage often includes fascia and soffit replacements to give the roofline a fresh, solid foundation that enhances both performance and appearance.
Now it’s time to fit the new materials. For pitched roofs, tiles or slates are laid systematically to ensure watertight protection. If the project involves a new flat roof, specialist materials like single-ply membranes or bitumen systems are applied to deliver durability and efficiency. Quality flat roof repairs at this stage prevent future leaks and extend the roof’s lifespan.
A great roof is about more than just the covering. Attention to detail makes a difference. Well-installed fascias and soffits protect the roofline from weather damage while adding a neat, polished finish. Flashings, guttering, and sealing ensure water is properly diverted. These small but vital touches complete the re-roof process.
Re-roofing may seem like a daunting task, but with our expert domestic roofers, the process is straightforward and stress-free. Whether you need flat roof repairs or a new installation, following the above steps ensures that your Dorking property remains safe, secure, and visually appealing in the long term.
