Repeated leaks or failing roof materials can make homeowners consider a full replacement. The right next step is to understand what is causing the problem. Photographs help start that conversation, but they cannot show every concealed defect. We will give you an honest view of the work needed and explain what can be assessed before the roof is opened.
Replacing a main roof and dealing with extensions
If your home has an extension, roof window or lower roof, include it in the discussion. A main roof and a shallow extension can need different coverings and junction details. Choosing materials for the actual pitch matters, as does the connection around a roof window. A new-looking covering is not enough if the underlying detail is wrong.
Can the leadwork and roofline be included?
Yes. Tell us about the whole project, including valleys, chimney flashings, fascias, soffits and gutters. We can set out which items are included in your roof replacement quotation. If a chimney alteration is being considered, the scope and any structural requirements must be agreed before work starts. The aim is to deal with the roof as a whole, rather than leave you arranging overlapping jobs.

These completed projects show our approach to roof replacement and the details that matter. Each report gives its actual location and photographs from the work.

This real project involved replacing unsuitable tiles with low pitch Mendip tiles and replacing the Velux roof window. It shows why the specification matters as much as the finished appearance.

A useful quotation makes the work clear before you commit. We discuss the roof covering, stripping and preparation, access, waste removal and the roof details that belong in your project. Tell us if you also want the fascias, soffits, gutters or an adjoining flat roof included.
- The roof itself: the proposed covering, underlay, battens and the condition of the structure.
- The junctions: which valleys, flashings, chimney details and roof windows need attention.
- The arrangements: the agreed scope, price, VAT, payment stages and guarantee terms.
If opening the roof reveals additional work, that needs a conversation and agreement. It should not become an unexplained extra at the end.

Before you book your Melling roof replacement
Does a replacement roof come with a guarantee?
Yes. Our roof replacements come with a minimum 10-year guarantee. Your quotation and guarantee documents set out the scope and terms. The guarantee is provided by Roofing Ninjas. We are working towards certification for insurance-backed guarantees; these are not currently available.
Will my quotation include clear VAT and payment details?
Yes. We are VAT registered and show VAT and the total payable. We normally take a 30% booking deposit and 70% on completion. Larger projects can have agreed staged payments linked to completed work. We accept credit cards but do not offer finance ourselves.
Can I send photographs before arranging the next step?
Yes. Send your postcode, a short description and any existing photographs on WhatsApp. Photos help us understand your enquiry, though they cannot replace a full assessment of the roof.
A roof we can put our name to. Or we do not take the job.
It is understandable to worry about cowboys when so much of the work is out of sight. We would rather show you what doing it properly means: clear preparation, suitable materials and care with the details you may never see from the ground.
We will not agree to hide known defective work beneath new tiles or use a specification we cannot stand behind. If a job only works financially by cutting those corners, we would rather turn it down. Taking longer and earning less on a job is preferable to leaving work we are not proud of.
Most of our work comes through referrals and word of mouth. That reputation matters more to us than rushing onto the next booking.
See why the preparation matters
On one roof we corrected, older roofing had been left beneath the later work. We stripped it, renewed the felt and battens and carried out new leadwork. See the actual correction.
