What to Expect During Your Roof Replacement in Worcester
Having your roof replaced is a major home improvement project. Knowing what to expect can help you plan and feel confident about the results. At Back to Back Roofing, we guide Worcester homeowners through every step—from initial inspection to final cleanup.
1. Free Roof Inspection & Detailed Quotation
Your project begins with a free roof inspection. We check tiles, underlay, timbers, flashing and overall structure. Following the assessment, we’ll provide a breakdown of costs, timelines, and material options (tiles or slate), with no obligation to proceed.
2. Planning & Scheduling
Once you accept the quote, we schedule the project at your convenience. We confirm start dates and any access requirements. On the planned start date, our team sets up scaffolding and protects your property, gardens, and driveways from debris.
3. Removal of the Old Roof
We strip away the existing roof tiles or slates, roof felt, battens, and any damaged underlay. We inspect roof timbers for rot or damage and replace them if necessary. All removed materials are carefully collected and disposed of.
4. Installation of New Materials
With the roof structure sound, we begin installing breathable underlay, treated timber battens, and your choice of tile or slate. We lay ridge tiles, hips, and flashings precisely to WD?RA technical standards and building regulations.
5. Final Inspection & Clean-Up
After installation, we perform a detailed inspection to ensure everything is watertight and secure. We remove scaffolding and undertake a full site clean, including waste disposal and patio sweeping.
6. Workmanship Guarantee & Aftercare
All new roofs from Back to Back Roofing include a 10 to 20-year workmanship guarantee. We provide care advice and offer maintenance inspections to extend roof life and performance.
