Choosing the Right Roof Covering
The right covering depends on your property, the roof pitch, your street and your budget. In Oxford, many Victorian and Edwardian homes in areas like Jericho, East Oxford and North Oxford were built with natural slate, while 1930s and later homes often have clay or concrete tiles.
We match materials to the character of your home and advise on whether a conservation area or listed status affects your choice.
- Natural slate: traditional look, very long-lasting, ideal for period homes
- Clay tiles: classic warm colours that weather beautifully
- Concrete tiles: cost-effective, strong and available in many profiles
- Dry ridge and hip: modern mechanical fixing for the ridge and hips

New Roof FAQs
How much does a new roof cost in Oxford?
A new pitched roof for a semi or detached house typically costs £4,000–£13,000 including scaffolding and extras. Supply-and-fit prices start around £2,750–£3,250 for a terraced house and £5,250–£5,750 for a detached hipped roof before scaffolding. Natural slate costs more than concrete tiles. We give a fixed written quote after a free survey.
How long does it take to replace a roof?
A terraced house is typically re-roofed in 2–3 days and a semi or detached house in 3–5 days. Complex roofs with dormers, valleys or chimneys can take one to two weeks. We confirm the timescale in your quote and plan around the weather.
Do I need planning permission for a new roof?
Like-for-like re-roofing usually does not need planning permission. Listed buildings and some conservation areas may need consent, especially if materials change. Replacing more than a quarter of a roof also usually needs Building Regulations approval, and we will advise on what is needed.
What is the best roofing material for my house?
It depends on your property, roof pitch and budget. Natural slate suits period homes and lasts the longest, clay tiles offer a classic look, and concrete tiles are the most cost-effective. We recommend the right option after surveying your roof.
Can I stay at home while my roof is replaced?
Yes. Most homeowners stay in the property during a re-roof. We work from scaffolding outside, keep the roof watertight at the end of each day and clear up as we go.
Should I repair or replace my roof?
If damage is limited to one area and the felt and battens are sound, a repair is usually the better value. If leaks keep returning in different places, many tiles are failing or the underlay has perished, a new roof is often the better long-term option.
Can you replace fascias, soffits and gutters at the same time?
Yes. Replacing your roofline while the scaffolding is already up avoids paying for access twice and gives the whole roof a fresh, finished look.
Do you offer free roof surveys?
Yes. Surveys and quotes for new roofs are free, with no obligation and no upfront fees. For house buyers we also offer a detailed pre-purchase roof inspection.
