Tiled Roofs in St Albans

Tiled Roof Repairs and Re-Tiling in St Albans

Re-tiling is not only about the tiles you can see. Behind them sit battens set at a gauge that suits the tile, and an underlay that catches any water that gets past. When those wear out, even good tiles start to slip and leak. TNR Roofing Services renews the whole build-up when re-tiling homes and commercial properties in St Albans.

Our roofers inspect tiled roofs throughout the AL1 to AL4 postcode districts, travelling from Hemel Hempstead. If most of your tiles are sound, the free survey will say so, and we quote for repairing the failed areas instead of a complete re-tile.

What's included

Our Tiled Roof Services in St Albans

The main parts of the job, each listed in your quote.

  • Cracked, slipped or missing tiles replaced and matched to your roof as closely as current products allow.
  • Concrete interlocking tiles laid where a durable covering at a sensible cost is the priority.
  • Clay and plain tiles fitted where the building's age or a conservation setting calls for a traditional finish.
  • Worn tiles, perished felt and tired battens stripped, with new underlay and battens fixed at the gauge the tile needs.
  • Ridge and hip tiles refixed or renewed and valleys formed so the joins between slopes shed water cleanly.
  • Rafters checked before re-tiling, and strengthened where a heavier tile is going on.

Pricing

St Albans Tiled Roof Costs Explained

Your St Albans tiled roof quote depends on the points below, all checked during the survey:

  • The tile chosen, as concrete interlocking tiles usually cost less to buy and lay than clay or plain tiles
  • How many tiles are needed per square metre, since small plain tiles take far more pieces and fixings
  • The roof pitch, which limits the tiles that can be used and affects how quickly they can be laid safely
  • Any strengthening the rafters need if the new tiles are heavier than the old covering
  • The length of ridges, hips and valleys, plus abutments against walls and chimneys that need flashing

How it works

Our Process for St Albans Tiled Roofs

What happens from your first call to the finished work.

  1. Free Tiled Roof Survey

    We look at the tiles, ridges, hips and valleys, measure the pitch and check the rafters and battens, so the quote is based on the whole roof and not only the damage you can see.

  2. Repair or Re-Tile Quote

    You get a no-obligation quote that says plainly if a repair will do or a re-tile is due, with our advice on concrete, clay or plain tiles for your roof and budget.

  3. Tiling the Roof

    For a re-tile, the old covering comes off, the roof is kept covered while open, new underlay and battens go on, and tiles are laid from the eaves up with ridges, hips, valleys and flashings formed.

  4. Final Review

    Old tiles and battens are cleared from site, then we review the completed work with you and confirm everything has been done as agreed.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What is batten gauge and why does it matter?

The gauge is the spacing between the battens the tiles hang on. Each tile type needs its own gauge so the courses overlap by the right amount from the eaves to the ridge. Get it wrong and coverage becomes uneven, which can let water through.

Do I need consent to change roof tiles in St Albans?

Possibly. Changing the tile type on a listed building or a home in a conservation area can need approval, so check with St Albans City and District Council first. Like-for-like re-tiling elsewhere is normally treated as maintenance.

Can you strengthen rafters for heavier tiles?

Yes. If the new tiles are heavier than the old covering, we check the rafters at the survey and include any strengthening they need in the quote, so the roof can carry the new weight.

Do you work on commercial tiled roofs in AL1 to AL4?

Yes. We repair and re-tile commercial buildings as well as homes across the St Albans postcode districts, and arrange access and timing to suit your premises.
