New Roof Installations in North Shields

Planning a new roof installation in North Shields? Windsor Roofing replaces slate and tiled roofs, with a free survey to establish what your property needs. Whether you own a whole house or need to organise work on a building divided into flats, we explain the proposed work and access arrangements before you commit.

Slate and Tile Specialists in North Shields

A roof replacement is an opportunity to deal with the cause of recurring problems. If water keeps finding its way inside, replacing a few loose slates may not resolve worn underlay or problems around a chimney. We assess the wider roof before advising whether repair or replacement is appropriate.

For homes in North Shields, the finish also deserves thought. An older roof near the town centre may call for a different material from a more recent house in Preston. We offer natural slate, clay and concrete tiles, plus mock slate alternatives, and explain which options suit your roof.

Based in Sunderland, Windsor Roofing is a family business serving North Shields and the wider North East. You deal with a team that explains the work in everyday language and takes care over the finished result.

Keeping It Simple and What Is included

We begin by looking at the roof’s condition and how the building is used. If it contains more than one home, tell us about any shared entrances and who is arranging the work. This helps us plan access and explain the practical arrangements to you.

Your written quote describes the roof replacement we propose. We discuss the covering, relevant junctions and any associated repairs that the survey identifies. Scaffolding, roof size and the amount of detailed work affect the cost. After you accept the quote, we agree suitable dates and keep you informed about the next steps.

Our Other Services

We provide a 10-year guarantee on main roofs.

Materials and Standards

A new roof needs suitable fixings and careful detailing as well as a sound covering. We consider the building’s position and exposure when discussing the specification for your North Shields home. BBA-certified products form part of our installations where specified.

If the proposed re-roofing needs Building Control approval, we can explain the next steps. A full replacement can also raise questions about insulation and roof ventilation, which should be considered together as part of the proposed work.

Our Promises To You

N

Your Home is Our Home

We know roof work affects daily life inside the building. We discuss how the team will reach the roof and take care around shared doors, paths and the areas you use every day.
N

Insured, Professional and Reliable

Windsor Roofing is insured and remains responsible for managing your installation. We explain who will attend and keep you updated if weather changes when the work can safely take place.
N

A Cleaner and Greener

Old roofing materials are removed without skips and sent for appropriate recycling or disposal. We keep the site as orderly as the work allows, including where front gardens or yards offer limited space.

Heritage work and older properties

Around Northumberland Square, the roofscape forms part of the area’s historic character. If you own an older property here, choosing a replacement involves looking at the existing slate, roof shape and visible details. A different colour or profile can change the appearance of the whole building.

Our heritage roofing experience helps us assess the options carefully. Where a property has protected status, the relevant permissions need checking before a material change goes ahead. Read Historic England’s advice on older roofs for more about repair and renewal.

Debbie

Roof Replacement

“I can’t speak high enough of John and his son, Anthony. My 101 year old Mum had water coming in through her kitchen ceiling following a recent storm and my friend recommended these guys having used them extensively in the past. They came out and gave a quote. However, once they started the job it quickly became apparent that the job was a lot bigger than first anticipated thanks to some previous workmanship resulting in the wall not even being attached to the house!! The job was completed today and I’m over the moon with the result. Would not hesitate to recommend for any roofing jobs.”

Laura

Window Fitting

“John and his team were great, John came out promptly and looked at the job in hand and provided a quote in a timely manner, once we booked the job he kept in contact to come out and fully measure up and then organised the window install, john kept me updated all the way through and as soon as the window was made and ready organised a date to complete the job ,John and his team were lovely and very professional, really great job completed and they tidied up everything after, we would definitely use them again “

Richard

New Roof

“We knew from the very first conversation with the lady in the office that this would be a great firm to deal with. We were given an appointment for a quote and Anthony turned up bang on time as agreed. We agreed the cost and timing straight away. This is a family business & John & Anthony were fantastic to deal with. You can really tell that they care about their work & have great attention to detail. Their team of roofers were a great bunch of guys & they tidied up afterwards. Highly recommended. Wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.”

New Roof Installations in North Shields FAQ’s

What needs extra planning for a roof replacement in North Shields?
Access and responsibility for arranging the work need to be clear, particularly in a building containing flats. Tell us about shared areas or any restrictions before we quote. We also assess the roof’s exposure and plan around suitable weather. The programme needs to allow for safe working and protection of the occupied building.
Do you use subcontractors for new roofs in North Shields?
We carry out most new roof installations with our own team. Certain tasks, including scaffolding, may involve trusted specialists. We explain these arrangements and continue to oversee the project, rather than leaving you to coordinate separate trades yourself.
How do you handle unexpected work beneath the old roof?
Some problems only become visible after the covering is removed. If we uncover damaged timber or another issue outside the agreed scope, we show you what needs attention and discuss the options. We provide the additional price before that work goes ahead, so you can make an informed decision.
