New Roof Installation in Birmingham

At Birmingham Roofing Solutions Ltd, we install new roofs for homeowners, builders and developers across Birmingham, from extension projects and garage conversions to complete new-build properties. We focus on getting the specification right before installation begins, so the finished roof is designed for the building rather than simply fitted onto it.

About New Roofs

A New Roof Is A Complete Roofing System, Not Just Tiles

Many people picture a new roof as simply laying tiles or slates, but the installation involves far more than the final covering.

A successful roof installation depends on several connected elements:

  • Period homes
  • Terraced homes
  • Semi-detached homes
  • Bungalows
  • Modern homes
  • Extensions
  • Flat roofs
  • Commercial properties

Each part of a roof affects performance. Poor ventilation or detailing can cause condensation and leaks, which is why we treat installation as a complete system built for long-term protection.

Our Services

New Roof Installation Services We Provide

We install durable roofing systems for new builds, extensions, and replacement projects, tailored to your property’s design and requirements.

Extension roofs

Rear, side, and wraparound extensions require careful roofing choices, from matching existing materials to ensuring the new and old roof junctions are properly detailed to prevent future leaks.

New build roofs

Full roof installation on new-build properties, following the structural design and specification set out by the architect or developer, and finished to building control standards from the outset.

Self-build projects

Roofing for self-build homes, where we advise on pitch, material choice and ventilation early in the design process, rather than being brought in once decisions have been made that limit options.

Structures without a proper roof

Outbuildings, garages and conversions with an inadequate or temporary roof covering, brought up to a proper, weathertight standard with materials specified for the structure underneath.

Roofing Components

Roofing Materials We Install

We work with a range of quality roofing materials, selecting the right option based on your property, design, and performance needs.

Natural slate

A strong choice for period properties and extensions that need to match an existing slate roof, offering long-term durability when properly fixed.

Fibre cement slate

A more cost-effective alternative to natural slate that still gives a traditional appearance, well suited to a wide range of pitched roof projects.

Concrete and clay tiles

The most common covering across Birmingham’s newer housing and extensions, available in a range of profiles and colours to suit the property.

GRP fibreglass flat roofing

A seamless, durable flat roofing option for extensions and outbuildings, installed with proper falls to prevent water ponding and extend roof life.

Single-ply roofing

A lightweight, flexible flat roofing system suited to larger flat roof areas, offering good long-term performance with fewer joints than traditional felt systems.

EPDM rubber roofing

A flexible, durable flat roofing system providing waterproofing for extensions, garages, and outbuildings with strong weather resistance.

why choose us

Why Choose Birmingham Roofing Solutions Ltd For Roof Repairs

At Birmingham Roofing Solutions Ltd, we focus on providing honest repair advice based on the actual condition of your roof. We explain whether a repair is the right solution or if replacement would be more practical, helping you make an informed decision without unnecessary work.

We keep the process clear from start to finish, explaining what we find, what needs attention, and the expected costs before any repairs begin. Our aim is to deliver reliable roofing solutions with clear communication and workmanship you can trust.

We Specify Before We Install

Every new roof starts with understanding the structure, selecting suitable materials, and planning the right pitch and ventilation.

We Understand Building Regulations

We install roofs that meet current standards, particularly for extensions and new builds, helping avoid compliance issues after completion.

We Focus on the Whole Roof System

A roof is more than its visible covering. We focus on underlay, battening, insulation, ventilation, and detailing to create a durable roofing system.

Experienced Roofers

Important Factors We Consider During Installation

A successful roof installation depends on correct planning, suitable materials, and attention to key details that affect performance and durability.

  • Roof Pitch and Design: We ensure the roof design and pitch suit the chosen materials and provide effective water drainage.
  • Material Selection: We choose materials based on the property, appearance, and long-term performance requirements.
  • Ventilation: Proper ventilation helps prevent moisture, condensation, and future roof issues.
  • Insulation and Regulations: We consider insulation requirements to ensure the roof meets current building standards.
  • Underlay and Battening: Correct underlay and battening provide weather protection and support the roof covering.
how we work

Our roofing process

We follow an inspection-led approach to ensure every roofing solution suits the property. We identify the issue, explain options, and recommend work that protects your home.

Step 1
Design consultation

We discuss the project — extension, new build or self-build — and talk through pitch, material options and any constraints around matching an existing roof.

Step 2
Structural check

We confirm the roof structure suits the proposed covering, and specify underlay, ventilation and insulation to meet current building regulations.

Step 3
Material sourcing

We source the agreed materials, whether that’s matching an existing slate roof or supplying a new tile or flat roofing system suited to the building.

Step 4
Written Quotation

A clear quote covering materials, labour, and timeframe, so there’s no ambiguity about what’s included before work begins or during the project.

Step 5
Installation

Roofing carried out to the agreed specification, with attention to the underlay, battening and junction details that determine long-term performance.

Step 6
Final Quality Check

A final check against the agreed specification, with documentation provided where needed for building control or warranty purposes.

Common New Roof Installation Problems We Help Prevent
