Local context — new roofs & reroofs in Gerrards Cross
Reroofs in Gerrards Cross 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. Large detached properties around The Common typically have 3-4 chimney stacks each and complex valley/dormer detailing — proper lead welding (not lead-look flashband) is essential to keep them watertight long-term. Access typically comes off A40 so we coordinate scaffold and skip delivery to minimise disruption.
We work across SL9 with easy access from A40 and A413.

Frequently asked — New Roofs & Reroofs in Gerrards Cross
How long does a reroof take in Gerrards Cross?+
A typical semi-detached reroof in Gerrards Cross 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 Gerrards Cross 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 Gerrards Cross 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 Gerrards Cross is the most cost-effective time to do it. Scaffold's up, the slope's open and the flashings tie in cleanly.
