New Roofs in Radcliffe-on-Trent: Tiled, Slate and Flat
Radcliffe-on-Trent is a large village on the River Trent, east of Nottingham, and its housing runs from period homes through inter-war houses to modern estates. A new roof here is rarely a matter of choosing one material for everyone, because what suits a late-Victorian house is not what suits a recent build.
Evans Roofing Services is based in Beckingham and covers Radcliffe-on-Trent, along with Bingham, Cotgrave, Gedling and West Bridgford nearby. We install tiled, slate and flat roofs, carry out complete replacements and roof new extensions, with the specification matched to the property in front of us.
Choosing a covering for the age of the house
Period properties often look right with slate or clay tiles that echo the original, while inter-war houses may suit well-matched concrete or clay tiles. A newer estate house usually sits comfortably under a modern interlocking tile. Pitch, structure and exposure decide what is actually suitable.
A complete replacement can include stripping the old covering, checking rafters and battens, renewing unsound timber and fitting the new system with fresh flashings and ridge details. Where the loft is used, we also look at insulation and ventilation so the new roof works with the space below.
- Clay and concrete tile roof installations
- Natural and manufactured slate roofs
- Flat roof systems in EPDM, felt or GRP for suitable buildings
- Complete roof replacements including structure checks
- Roofs for extensions and garages
Where old and new roof sections meet
Many larger village homes have been extended, so a new roof often has to join onto an older one. The junctions between old and new sections need careful flashing and lead, since that is where water tends to find its way in. Planning permission and building regulations may apply to new roofs and extensions, so check with your local council first.

New Roofs in Radcliffe-on-Trent: common questions
Can a period house in Radcliffe-on-Trent be re-roofed in a similar material?
Often it can, using natural or manufactured slate or tiles chosen to suit the building. The structure and pitch need checking first, and your local council can advise if any special rules affect the property. Matching the original look is usually possible without copying it exactly.
Do you roof extensions as well as main roofs?
Yes, we fit pitched and flat roofs to extensions and garages and take care over the join with the existing roof. Building regulations may apply, so check with your local council before work starts.
