Expert Tiled Roofing In Preston, Lancashire

When you’re thinking about a new roof for your home, especially a tiled one, you’ve got excellent choices. We primarily work with high-quality concrete tiles and classic clay tiles. Concrete tiles are a really popular, reliable option, offering great durability and a wide range of colours and profiles to suit any property. Clay tiles, on the other hand, provide a more traditional, often heritage look, known for their incredible longevity and charming character. Both are fantastic ways to protect your home and enhance its kerb appeal. We’ll discuss everything with you to find the perfect fit for your specific property and budget in Southport.

A properly installed, high-quality tiled roof from Roofworks is a long-term investment. You can realistically expect a new concrete tiled roof to last 30-50 years, while well-maintained natural clay tiles can easily exceed 60-100 years, sometimes even longer! The lifespan depends on the quality of the materials, the standard of installation, and regular maintenance. We make sure our work meets the highest standards, giving you peace of mind for decades.

Absolutely, tiled roofs are incredibly versatile. They’re the most common choice for pitched roofs on homes, offering excellent weather protection and aesthetic appeal. For extensions, especially those with a pitched design, tiles integrate seamlessly with your existing roof. While tiles aren’t suitable for truly flat roof systems – for those, we recommend our specialist GRP fibreglass systems – we can certainly discuss whether a low-pitch tiled roof could work for your particular extension design. Our professional team will assess your home and recommend the best roofing solution.

It’s a common question, and we're here to help you work it out. If you've just got a few slipped or cracked tiles, or maybe a small leak, then targeted repairs are usually the answer. However, if you’re seeing widespread damage, lots of missing tiles, consistent leaks in different areas, or your roof is simply very old and deteriorating, then a full roof replacement (re-roofing) might be the most cost-effective solution in the long run. We offer a full inspection service to give you an honest assessment and help you make an informed decision for your home in Southport.

For a truly flat roof, traditional tiles aren't generally the best solution as they need a decent pitch to shed water effectively. However, if your "flat roof" actually has a very shallow pitch, some specialized flat tiles might be considered, though it’s less common. For genuinely flat roof systems, we are Cromar GRP certified specialists. GRP fibreglass is a seamless, incredibly durable, and 100% waterproof solution that lasts for years – it’s a high-quality product perfect for extensions, garages, and dormers, offering excellent protection and peace of mind for your home.
