Extension Roof Installation in West Earlham
10/05/2022
When planning an expansion of your home, you will likely be choosing between two options for the roof - either flat or pitched. Whether you make your choice based upon budget, aesthetics, durability or space, both options can offer you plenty of advantages.
In the case of pitched roofs:
- Greater longevity from durable and weather resistant materials.
- Increased sunlight from rooflights.
- Bonus roof space.
In the case of flat roofs:
- Typically the cheaper option.
- Contemporary aesthetic appearance.
- Ideal for bungalow extensions.
Which brings us to a recent installation we carried out in West Earlham in Norwich. We were approached by a local building contractor and asked to carry out the installation on a new roof as part of an extension to the property.
The installation involved the fitting of a new modern breather membrane, treated timber battens and Redland Mini Stonewold tiles in a Tudor Brown colour finish. This was finished off with a complementing ridge and hip tiles bedded in mortar, stepped lead flashing to the abutting walls and new leads to the valleys.
You’ll see from the photos that there was a considerable amount of detail that went into this roof and the result really does show off the skill, attention to detail and craftsmanship that we put into every project.
