Re-roofing homes across Havant
Havant takes in a wide spread of housing, from the old town centre and Langstone's waterside cottages to the large post-war estates of Leigh Park and the newer homes around the edge of the town. That means we replace everything from traditional clay tile and slate roofs to the concrete tile roofs found on many family homes in the area.
When one roof needs repairing in several places at once, it is usually a sign that the whole covering is wearing out. On older estates that often means tiles that have lost their surface, felt that has torn along the eaves and battens that no longer hold the fixings properly. A replacement on new membrane and battens deals with all of it in one go.
We are based in Portchester, along the A27 from Havant, so getting to you for the inspection, the quote and the job itself is straightforward.

Signs your roof needs replacing
Not sure whether to repair or replace? These are the things that usually tip the balance.
Patched in several places
A roof with repairs dotted all over it is usually wearing out as a whole, not failing in one spot.
Tiles that have lost their surface
Older concrete tiles turn rough and porous and start to soak up water rather than shed it.
Torn felt along the eaves
Felt that has rotted where it dips into the gutter lets water run behind the fascia and into the roof edge.
A sagging roof line
A dip along the ridge or a wavy roof slope can mean the timbers underneath need attention.
Heavy moss holding water
Thick moss keeps tiles wet for long spells, speeding up the wear on an older roof.
Condensation in the roof space
Damp timbers and mould in the loft can point to poor ventilation as well as leaks, and a new roof is the time to fix both.

How we replace a roof in Havant
From the first visit to the last tile, this is how a roof replacement with us runs in Havant.
Inspection and free quote
We look at the roof and the loft, take photos and explain what we find before giving you a clear, written quote.
Scaffold and strip
Scaffolding goes up, then the old covering, battens and felt come off and are taken away responsibly.
Timbers and membrane
Rafters are checked and repaired where needed, then a breathable membrane and new treated battens go on.
New roof and finishes
Slate or tiles are laid, ridges, hips, verges, valleys and lead work are finished neatly, and the site is left clean.
Slate, clay or concrete tiles?
From slate and clay in Langstone and the old town to concrete tiles on the estates, these are the coverings we fit most.
Natural slate
Long-lasting and right for many Victorian and Edwardian houses, fixed to suit the pitch and exposure.
Clay plain tiles
A traditional small-format tile with a warm colour, often chosen for character and period homes.
Concrete tiles
Interlocking concrete tiles are a practical, cost-effective choice for many semis and bungalows.
Re-using your tiles
Where the existing tiles are sound, they can sometimes be stripped and re-laid on new underlay and battens.

Altitude came recommended and lived up to it: quick to respond, polite and fairly priced. They put right a large shed roof that another company had already had two goes at.
Great from first call to finish. Jordan took the time to explain what was behind the cold spots in the house, kept us updated throughout, and the roof work itself was done to a high standard.
I had water coming in around the chimney and some very expensive quotes elsewhere. Jordan was honest, explained exactly what the repair needed and broke the cost down clearly.

Roof replacement Havant FAQs
Answers to the questions we are asked most about replacing a roof in Havant.
How much does a roof replacement cost in Havant?
Every roof is different, so we do not publish fixed prices. The size of the roof, the number of hips, valleys and chimneys, scaffolding, the tiles or slate you choose and the condition underneath all shape the cost, along with removing the old roof. We come out, look at it properly and give you a free, written quote.
Is a full replacement worth it on a post-war house?
If the tiles, felt and battens have all reached the end of their life, yes. Patching an old roof again and again costs money each time without fixing the underlying problem, while a full re-roof gives the house a new, weathertight covering for decades to come.
Do you work on older homes in Langstone and Havant's conservation areas?
Yes. In a conservation area the look of the roof matters, so we match materials and traditional details as closely as possible. Like-for-like re-roofing does not usually need planning permission, but changing the material or the shape of the roof can, so we flag anything that might apply before work starts.
Can you improve roof ventilation when you replace my roof?
Yes. A new roof is the ideal time to make sure the roof space is properly ventilated, which helps prevent condensation. A breathable membrane and a ventilated dry ridge system both help, and we will explain what suits your roof.
Will you take the old roof away?
Yes. Stripping an old roof creates a lot of waste, and removing it responsibly is part of the job and allowed for in your quote.
