Complete Re-Roofing in Reading

When a roof reaches the end of its serviceable life — typically 50–80 years for slate, 40–60 for concrete tile — patch repairs stop being economical. Wise Roofing has carried out hundreds of full re-roofs across Reading and Berkshire, from Victorian terraces in Caversham to modern detached homes in Wokingham and Bracknell. Every new roof we fit is installed to current NHBC and UK Building Regulations standards and is backed by a 10-year written guarantee.

Types of New Roof We Install

  • Concrete tile roofs — the most common new roof in the Reading area, available in flat, profiled and interlocking ranges.
  • Natural and fibre-cement slate roofs — ideal for period and conservation-area properties.
  • Clay plain tile and pantile roofs.
  • Flat roofs — GRP fibreglass, EPDM rubber, single-ply membrane and felt (see our Flat Roofing page).
  • Hybrid roofs combining pitched and flat sections, dormers and roof lights.
