Roof Replacement covering Odd Down and the surrounding BA2 area. Free assessment, no call-out fee. Post-war estate housing (1950–1985) specialists.
A full re-roof is the right call when repairs stop being economical — when fixings have failed across the whole slope, the underlay has perished, or you're throwing good money at a roof near the end of its life.
When it is not the answer: If the slate itself is sound and only the fixings have gone, a strip-and-relay reusing your original Welsh slate is often better value than a full replacement — and keeps a heritage roof authentic. Read the full guide.
Concrete tile re-roofing on Odd Down's 1950 to 1985 housing stock. Many properties are now at the end of original tile design life. New breathable felt, treated battens, full timber inspection. Free survey and written quote.
We cover Odd Down as part of our core Bath service area with no additional call-out charges. All work is carried out by our own team — no subcontractors. Free assessment, honest written quote before any work starts.
Odd Down housing is predominantly post-war estate housing (1950–1985), with concrete interlocking tile as the dominant roofing material on period stock. The most common issues in this area are ridge mortar failure on exposed elevations, flat roofs on extensions, aging concrete tile stock. We carry the appropriate materials for all Odd Down property types on every vehicle.
Every roof replacement job in Odd Down starts with a free physical assessment. We inspect the full roof condition, not just the reported problem, and provide a written fixed price before any work starts. Materials for the most common Odd Down repair types are on all vehicles. Most Odd Down jobs are completed in a single visit without scaffold.

“Ridge tiles gone on our 1968 semi. Called Monday morning, attended same day, all re-bedded by afternoon. Efficient and no call-out fee.”
“GRP flat roof on our kitchen extension. Old felt had been patched twice. Done in one day, 25-year warranty. No problems since.”
“Guttering clean and one cracked section replaced. They came when they said, left the place tidy. Fair price.”
A re-roofing survey on any property in our coverage area covers the roof surface, the loft timber condition, any associated lead and guttering work, and the chimney condition. We access the loft to inspect every rafter, purlin, and wall plate for rot, movement, or insect damage. We photograph everything that requires attention and present findings before the quote is agreed — not as a surprise cost escalation after scaffold is erected. The survey is free. The quote is itemised. There are no hidden extras.
The quote for any re-roof includes scaffold erection and removal, a skip for stripped material, and a confirmed programme of work. Scaffold is typically up for 10 to 16 days on a standard 3-bed semi. We confirm the exact programme at the survey stage. If additional timber work is found on strip, we photograph it, price it separately, and get written approval before continuing. The original quote price for the tiling or slating work does not change — only genuinely unforeseen additional work is added.
All re-roofing work carries a written 10-year workmanship guarantee provided at handover alongside any manufacturer material warranties. The guarantee document names the property, describes the work, and states the guarantee period clearly. It is a legally enforceable document, not a verbal promise. For re-roofing on properties where a structural engineer's certification is required by a mortgage lender or insurer, we can facilitate this as part of the project.
Re-roofing Odd Down's post-war housing is straightforward compared with conservation area work — standard concrete interlocking tile, breathable felt, treated battens, and flexible cement ridge bedding. The variable is timber condition: properties built in the 1950s and 1960s used lower-grade softwood in rafters that is now 60 to 70 years old. Rafter inspection on strip is essential — rotten rafter feet at the eaves are common on Odd Down properties where guttering has been leaking onto the wall plate for extended periods.
Free assessment visits available within 2 to 5 working days. Written fixed price before any work starts. No call-out fee. All work carried out by our own team — no subcontractors. 10-year workmanship guarantee on completion. Call 0122 528 7924 to arrange.

| Job | Typical duration |
|---|---|
| Garage or outbuilding roof | 1–2 days |
| Terraced house re-roof | 4–6 days |
| 3-bed semi re-roof | 5–8 days |
| Large detached / heritage re-slate | 7–14 days |
| Structural timber repairs | +1–3 days |
Bath's weather and the care needed on conservation stock can extend timescales — we quote a realistic window, not an optimistic one.
A full re-roof always needs scaffold for safe working and to protect you and passers-by; it's included and itemised in your quote. Scaffold is specified for: the entire job — full perimeter scaffold is standard on any re-roof - always itemised in your written quote, never a hidden extra, and we arrange it.
Post-war estates and some older stock, mostly straightforward tower and scaffold access. Pavement scaffold and skip permits go through Bath & North East Somerset Council; allow a few working days on streets like Wellsway, Frome Road, Rush Hill where space is tight.

If a fault appears in covered work, we come back and put it right. No quibbling, no re-charge.
A re-roof means scaffold up for the duration, skip on site, and some noise during the day — but external work rarely needs you home, and we protect your garden and drives throughout. You do not need to stay home for external work - we just need power and access agreed in advance.
We never strip more than we can make watertight in a day, and temporary covering goes on every night, so your home stays protected throughout. On high ground south of the city, Odd Down is exposed to wind and driving rain.
