Local context — new roofs & reroofs in Amersham
Reroofs in Amersham are notifiable to Buckinghamshire Council under Part L when more than 25% of the roof slope is being recovered — that means insulation usually needs upgrading at the same time. Listed buildings in Old Amersham require like-for-like materials and careful coordination with Buckinghamshire Council's conservation officers — we handle the spec, the lead detailing and the consent paperwork. Access typically comes off A413 so we coordinate scaffold and skip delivery to minimise disruption.
We work across HP6, HP7 with easy access from A413 and A404.

Frequently asked — New Roofs & Reroofs in Amersham
How long does a reroof take in Amersham?+
A typical semi-detached reroof in Amersham takes 4-7 working days; larger detached homes or properties with complex valleys and chimneys take 1-2 weeks.
Do I need scaffolding?+
Yes — every reroof we carry out in Amersham is on full scaffolding for safety and to allow proper detailing at the eaves, verges and chimneys.
Will you upgrade my insulation?+
On any reroof in Amersham we'll discuss insulation upgrades to current Part L standards — most older roofs gain serious thermal performance from a properly specified upgrade.
What underlay do you use?+
Standard spec is a Class W3 breathable membrane (e.g. Klober Permo Air or equivalent) over treated softwood batten — never bitumen 1F felt, which is now obsolete.
Can you fit Velux windows during the reroof?+
Yes — adding rooflights during a reroof in Amersham is the most cost-effective time to do it. Scaffold's up, the slope's open and the flashings tie in cleanly.
