New Roofs & Roof Replacement Southampton
Full roof replacements built to last 60+ years — from a Southampton team you can trust.
A new roof is one of the most significant investments you can make in your home. Done well, it protects the building for the next 60 to 100 years, improves thermal performance, and adds meaningful value to the property. Southampton Roofing Specialists carries out full roof replacements across every style of house in the region — from Victorian terraces in Portswood and Shirley through to modern estates in Hedge End, Locks Heath and Fareham. We handle everything: scaffolding, strip-off, structural checks, breathable membrane, battens, insulation upgrades, new tiles or slate, lead flashings, dry-fix ridge systems and clearance.

Common problems we solve
Sagging roof line
Often the sign of failing purlins or rafters. We inspect and remedy structural issues before laying the new covering.
Widespread nail sickness
When galvanised nails corrode, tiles slip repeatedly. A full re-roof with stainless or copper fixings solves the problem for good.
Perished underlay
Old bitumen felt underlay perishes and no longer sheds any water that gets past the tiles. Modern breathable membranes eliminate condensation.
Non-compliant ventilation
Under-ventilated roof voids cause condensation and mould. We design ventilation to meet current guidance.
Our process
- Step 1
Detailed survey
We survey the existing roof inside and out and produce a written specification and quotation.
- Step 2
Planning
We agree materials, colours and start date. Scaffold and skip are booked in advance.
- Step 3
Strip and inspect
The old covering is stripped, timbers inspected, and any defects reported before the new build-up starts.
- Step 4
Re-roof and finish
New membrane, battens, tiles or slate, flashings and ridge system installed to manufacturer specification. Site cleared and paperwork issued.
