New Roofs

The roof of the house is one of the most important components when building a new property. It protects the entire house from the elements among other jobs so the construction of the roof is a very important decision to be made. Many homeowners simply allow a builder to take over the job for them but it can pay to have a roofing specialist such as MT Roofing get involved.

Roofing experts

Choosing a roof for your home is about more than just what looks nice – although this is a secondary concern. The house itself can dictate what roofing materials work best by the pitch of the roof or the angle or the roof beams that the roofing material will be laid onto.

The weight of the roofing material will also have an impact on its suitability for the property, depending on the way the house is being designed. There may be flat roof areas that require specialist flat roofing materials or you may want to incorporate roof windows to make the loft a usable space.

Replacing existing roofs

After time, an existing roof may need something more than just maintenance and this means a new roof should be considered. There are plenty of options with regards to roofing materials and again a roofing expert can help you make a decision.
Factors that come into the equation include the pitch of the roof and the amount of weight the roof can hold. You may also want to consider the look of the house – do you want your new roof to look much the same as the old one and fit in with the neighbourhood? Depending on where you live in the Cheltenham area, you may need to consider conservation area or listed building rules, all of which MT Roofing can assist you with.
