A Roof, Properly Specified

A new roof is the single biggest fabric upgrade you can make to a Scottish home.

Driven rain, salt air, freeze-thaw cycles and the occasional Atlantic storm: Scottish roofs work harder than almost any in the UK. A full re-roof with modern membranes, insulated battens and storm-grade fixings is the difference between 60 years of peace and 60 years of repair calls.

A surveyor visits, inspects the roof from inside and out, and recommends the right system, natural slate, concrete tile, clay or modern flat-roof membranes. You'll receive a clear, no-obligation quote. We scaffold, strip, fit and certify, with full clean-up, and all workmanship is guaranteed.

  • Free structural survey
  • Scaffolding included
  • Slate, tile or flat roof systems
  • Breathable membrane & insulation
  • Building-reg compliance certificate
  • All workmanship guaranteed

Repair or Replace?

Six signs your roof needs more than a patch.

Slipped or Missing Slates

Gaps in the roof covering or slates on the ground after a storm mean the nibs and fixings have failed. Widespread slippage usually means the battens underneath are rotten too.

Daylight Visible in the Loft

Stand in the loft with the lights off. Pinpricks of daylight through the roof mean the felt has perished and water is getting in, or will soon.

Sagging Ridgeline

A dip or wave along the ridge usually means the timbers have weakened. Left unchecked, the structure deteriorates and a simple re-roof becomes a more involved rebuild.

Blown or Cracked Flashings

Lead flashings around chimneys and abutments crack, lift and corrode over time. Temporary sealant fixes rarely last more than a season in Scottish weather.

Repeat Repair Calls

If the roofer has been out three or more times in two years, the underlying structure is failing. A full re-roof is almost always cheaper long-term than ongoing patch work.

Damp Patches on Upstairs Ceilings

Brown water stains or peeling paint on top-floor ceilings mean moisture is tracking in through a failing roof covering. By the time it shows indoors, the felt and timbers above are usually already affected.

Whole roof stripped and re-slated in eight days. The team sealed it every night so we never worried about rain. Genuinely could not fault them.

Full scope of work

What’s included in a full re-roof.

A complete, no-shortcuts approach to protecting your home from the inside out.

New breathable membrane and sarking boards laid over rafters

Sarking Boards

Where existing sarking is rotten or missing, we strip back to the rafters and lay new boards before the membrane goes down. This gives the roof its structural rigidity.

Roof timber rafters and purlins inspected inside a loft space

Rotten Timber Replacement

Rafters, purlins and fascia timbers are checked and replaced where needed. We never roof over compromised timber.

Brick chimney stack with damaged flashing due for repair or removal

Chimney Repair or Removal

Cracked chimney stacks repointed, reflashed, or taken down below roofline if no longer in use. Capped and sealed to prevent water ingress.

New black guttering and downpipe fitted to a brick house

Gutters and Fascias

Old cast-iron or failed uPVC guttering replaced with new. Fascia boards, soffits and bargeboards renewed at the same time, since the scaffold is already up.

Dry ridge and eaves ventilation allowing airflow through the roof

Ventilation

Eaves vents, tile vents and dry ridge ventilation installed to current building regulations. Proper airflow prevents condensation, damp and premature timber decay.

Breathable membrane and pressure-treated battens under new slate tiles

Membrane and Battens

Modern breathable roofing membrane and pressure-treated battens throughout. Storm-grade fixings rated for Scottish wind zones.

I'd been ripped off by other roofing companies in the past, but these guys were brilliant to work with from start to finish and made the whole job affordable.

"Old roof stripped and re-slated, no fuss."

Full re-roof on our 1930s semi. Scaffolding went up when they said, the old roof was stripped and re-slated with new sarking and membrane, and they cleared every last nail before they left. Kept us updated the whole way through.

"Honest survey, no hard sell."

Surveyor went up into the loft, took photos of everything and gave us an honest breakdown of repair versus replacement. No pressure at all. We went ahead with the full re-roof and the finished job is spot on.

"Weather-tight the whole time."

Worried about rain during the job but they sealed the roof every single night so we never had a leak or a worry. New guttering and fascias look brilliant too. Would recommend to anyone needing a new roof.

Every quote is clear, free and yours to keep with no obligation. Finance from £22 a week, subject to status.

While the Roof Is Off

The best time to upgrade insulation is during a re-roof.

Save on energy bills. Insulation upgrades at re-roof stage cost a fraction of retrofitting later, because the roof is already open.

Warm Roof

Insulation sits above the rafters, keeping the entire loft space warm. Ideal if you use the loft as a living area or plan to in future. Eliminates condensation risk.

Cold Roof

Insulation laid between and over the ceiling joists, with ventilated airspace above. The standard for most Scottish homes where the loft is only used for storage.

Room-in-Roof Upgrade

Converting a loft bedroom or dormer? We insulate between and under the rafters to current building regulation standards while the roof covering is off.

Loft Insulation Top-Up

Many Scottish homes still have only 100mm of loft insulation. Current regs specify 270mm. We top up to the full standard as part of any re-roof.

Peace of Mind

All workmanship guaranteed.

If anything we fitted is not right, tell us and we will put it right.

How much does a new roof cost in Scotland?

See our typical investment panel for a full breakdown. In short: concrete tile re-roofs from £7,500, natural slate from £12,000, flat roofs from £3,000. Every quote is clear, free and yours to keep with no obligation.

How long does a full re-roof take?

Most jobs are completed in up to 14 working days, weather permitting. We scaffold the whole house and work in sections, sealing nightly so your home is always weather-tight.

Can you just repair my roof, or does it need replacing?

Honest answer first. We survey, photograph every issue and give you both options in writing where they're both viable. Replacement only makes sense when the felt, battens or majority of tiles are at end of life. If it's a small repair, we'll quote the repair.

Can I finance the roof? How does the credit check work?

Yes. We offer Buy Now Pay 12 Months Later, flexible credit up to 24 months, and longer-term flexible credit up to 10 years. The initial eligibility check is a soft search with no impact on your credit score, and gives an instant decision. Ultimate Home Solutions is authorised by the FCA as a credit broker (not a lender).

Natural slate, concrete tile or clay, which is best?

All three are excellent for Scottish weather. Natural slate gives the longest life (80+ years) and the best look, but costs the most. Concrete tile is the best value with a 50-year life. Clay pantiles suit traditional Scottish properties and weather beautifully.

Do you cover my area in Scotland?

Yes. Our crews are based in Glasgow and Kilmarnock, and we install across the whole country, from Galloway to John o' Groats. Free home surveys anywhere in Scotland; no call-out fee, no postcode exclusions.

Can you add insulation or skylights at the same time?

Yes, and it's the most cost-effective time to do it. Loft insulation upgrades, Velux roof windows, solar PV roof-integration and chimney removal are all standard add-ons. Specified and priced in the quote.

What's actually covered by your guarantee?

All workmanship is guaranteed, from the membrane and battens to the tiles or slates, ridge work, flashings and lead work.
