New Roofs & Roof Replacement in Petersfield
A full re-roof — stripping the old covering, checking and replacing structural timbers, and fitting a new covering built to last.
New Roofs & Roof Replacement in Petersfield
Petersfield customers looking for new roofs & roof replacement turn to Hampshire Roofing. A full re-roof strips the existing covering back to the rafters, so it is also the point at which the structural timbers, battens and underlay/breather membrane can actually be inspected and replaced where needed — something a repair on top of the existing covering can never do. Once the timbers are sound, new battens are fixed at the correct gauge for the chosen covering (natural slate, clay tile or concrete tile all have different exposure and lap requirements), a breather membrane goes down to manage moisture while still letting the roof space ventilate, and the new covering is laid with proper detailing at ridges, hips, valleys and abutments. Replacement is generally the right call over repeated repairs when a roof shows widespread nail sickness (tiles slipping across large areas as the fixings fail with age), multiple unrelated failure points, or roof timbers that a survey has flagged as compromised. Petersfield sits within and immediately adjoining the South Downs National Park, and its Georgian and Victorian market-town core is also a conservation area in its own right — a double layer of designation that genuinely constrains what roofing materials are appropriate on the older buildings, favouring natural slate or clay tile over concrete on protected properties. The surrounding 20th-century suburbs sit outside both designations and offer far more straightforward material choices and access.

New Roofs & Roof Replacement in Petersfield — FAQ

Natural slate, clay tile and concrete tile are the most common pitched-roof coverings in Hampshire, each with a different look, weight and cost profile. Conservation areas and listed buildings can also restrict which materials are permitted — we'll talk you through what applies to your property.
Both depend heavily on the size, pitch, material and condition of the roof underneath. We don't publish generic figures or timescales — book a free roof survey and we'll give you an honest, no-obligation quote for your specific roof.
