If slates are slipping all over, tiles are porous and crumbling, the felt underneath has perished or the battens have rotted, a new roof is usually the better long-term investment. It protects everything underneath it and removes the cost and worry of repeated repairs. East View Roofing fits new pitched roofs across County Durham, including Durham city and the surrounding villages. We work on terraces, semis, detached houses and bungalows, in natural slate and in tiles, and every new pitched roof we fit comes with a 20-year guarantee. It starts with a free inspection. Luke will look at the condition of the roof covering, felt, battens and timbers, explain whether a new roof is really needed, and talk you through the material options before giving you a clear written price. What happens if it's left ## Signs Your Durham Roof May Need Replacing One of these on its own doesn't always mean a new roof. Several together usually do. ### Widespread slipped slates When slates slip across the whole roof, the nails have usually corroded. Refixing slate by slate becomes costly compared with re-roofing. ### Porous or crumbling tiles Older concrete tiles can become porous and soft, holding water and suffering frost damage. ### Sagging roof line A dip in the ridge or roof slopes can point to timber problems that need looking at properly. ### Perished felt Old bitumen felt becomes brittle and tears, leaving no second line of defence under the tiles. ### Repeated leaks If you are paying for repairs every winter, that money may be better spent on a new roof with a guarantee. ### Mistakes to avoid when replacing a roof - Choosing purely on the lowest price without checking what is included. - Re-using old, damaged battens or felt under a new covering. - Not asking what guarantee comes with the work, and who provides it. - Leaving ridges, verges and flashings as an afterthought.

Many older Durham terraces were built with natural slate, and keeping slate on these homes suits their character. Tiled roofs are common on later semis and detached homes. We will talk you through the look, weight and cost of each option for your property. ### What a new roof includes A new roof is more than the tiles or slates you can see. It includes the underlay, battens, ridge, hips, verges, valleys and flashings. These details are where most leaks start on older roofs, so we give them the same attention as the main slopes. Where ridges and verges are concerned, we can fit dry-fix systems that are mechanically secured rather than relying on mortar. We will explain whether that suits your roof. ### Cost and payment New pitched roofs start from £5,000. The final price depends on the size and shape of the roof, access and the materials chosen. A 50% booking fee secures your job, with the balance due on completion. ### How long the work takes and what to expect The time a new roof takes depends on its size, shape and the weather, and we will give you a realistic idea when we quote. While the work is under way, the roof is kept weathertight at the end of each day, and we keep the site tidy and safe throughout. Scaffolding is normally needed for a full re-roof so the work can be carried out safely. We will explain how access will work for your property, and let you and your neighbours know what to expect before the job starts. ### Is a new roof always necessary? Not always. Plenty of Durham roofs that look tired just need targeted repairs. If that is the case for yours, we will say so and quote for the repair instead. A new roof is a big decision, and you should only make it when the roof genuinely needs it. If you are unsure, start with a free inspection and an honest opinion. ### Looking after your new roof A well-fitted roof needs very little attention. Keeping gutters and valleys clear of leaves and moss, and getting any storm damage looked at promptly, will help it perform well for many years. Your 20-year guarantee gives you added peace of mind.
