New roof installation in Wivelsfield: what to plan
- 01
Matching the look of the house
A new roof should suit the house and its surroundings. On older homes in Wivelsfield, clay tiles or natural slate in a matching colour often look best. We'll bring samples and recommend options that sit well with the house and neighbouring roofs.
- 02
Heavier or lighter coverings
Changing from one roof covering to another can change the weight on the rafters. Moving to a heavier tile may mean strengthening the roof, while a lighter one may not. We check the structure before recommending a change, so the roof is sound.
- 03
Scaffolding and access
Scaffolding is usually up for the length of a re-roof. We plan where it goes, how it affects driveways and gardens, and whether a neighbour's land is needed. On narrow or sloping plots, we'll explain how access will work before the job is booked.
Booking a new roof installation in Wivelsfield
We come out to Wivelsfield from Burgess Hill to inspect the roof, the loft and the access around the house. You get a free, written quote with materials, scaffolding and timings set out clearly.
Once the dates are agreed, the scaffolding goes up and we strip and re-roof the house, keeping it weathertight each night. At the end, we check every part of the roof, clear the site and arrange for the scaffolding to come down.
Before we start
- Choose tiles or slates from samples
- Agree where scaffolding will stand
- Speak to neighbours if access is shared
- Move garden furniture from the edges
- Keep a clear route for deliveries

New roof installation in Wivelsfield: common questions
Can you re-roof a cottage or older house in Wivelsfield?
Yes. We re-roof older houses and cottages as well as modern homes. On older properties, we take extra care to choose materials that suit the house and check the timbers carefully, as they may need more repair. If your home is listed, extra permissions may apply.
Do I need to tell my neighbours about re-roofing in Wivelsfield?
It's courteous to let them know, as there will be scaffolding, deliveries and some noise. If the scaffolding needs to go on their land, you'll need their agreement first. On shared roofs or party walls, other rules can apply, and we'll explain these when we visit.
Can you replace the roof on my garage in Wivelsfield at the same time?
Yes. If your garage, porch or outbuilding roof also needs replacing, we can quote for it alongside the main roof. Doing them together often saves time and some of the access cost, and the roofs can be finished in matching materials.
Will a new roof in Wivelsfield need planning permission?
Usually not, if the new roof is like for like. Planning permission may be needed if you change the shape or height of the roof, or if your home is listed or in a conservation area. We'll check what applies to your house before any work is booked.
