C&J Construction & Roofing LTD installs complete new roofs across Wakefield, Barnsley, Pontefract, Leeds, Bradford, Halifax and the wider West Yorkshire area. A full re roof means stripping the existing covering, inspecting and repairing the timbers underneath, fitting new breathable membrane and treated battens, then covering in your chosen tile or slate with all new ridge, verge, valley and lead detailing.

A roof that has reached the end of its life will keep costing you money in patch repairs. Slipped tiles, damp patches on bedroom ceilings, sagging between rafters and mortar falling out of the ridge are all signs that a full replacement is the cheaper long term option.

We carry out a full strip and re roof on terraced, semi detached, detached and new build properties. Every job starts with a free inspection and a fixed written price, so you know exactly what you are paying before anyone climbs a ladder.

What a full re roof from C&J includes:

  • Scaffold arranged, erected and signed off before work starts
  • Existing tiles or slates stripped and removed from site
  • Roof timbers, rafters and wall plates inspected and repaired where needed
  • New breathable roofing membrane and treated battens throughout
  • Your chosen covering fitted, from concrete interlocking tile to natural or fibre cement slate
  • Dry fix ridge and verge systems so there is no mortar to crack or wash out
  • New lead flashings to chimneys, abutments and valleys
  • Site left clean and tidy at the end of every single day

Common questions

Questions about new roof installations

If your question is not answered here, call 07927 976489 and ask.

How long does a new roof take to install?

A standard three bedroom semi detached roof usually takes three to five working days once the scaffold is up. Larger detached properties and roofs with complex valleys, dormers or multiple pitches can take one to two weeks. We give you a realistic timescale in writing with your quote.Do I need planning permission for a new roof? | Replacing a roof like for like is normally permitted development, so no planning permission is needed. If you are changing the roof shape, raising the height, converting a flat roof to a pitched roof or the property is listed or in a conservation area, permission may be required. We will tell you before we quote.What roof covering should I choose? | It depends on the property and the street. Concrete interlocking tiles are cost effective and fast to lay. Natural slate suits older stone properties in Bradford, Halifax and Leeds. Clay tiles suit period homes. We talk you through the options on site with prices for each, then you decide.

Customer feedback

What our customers say

5 out of 5 from 5 reviews left on Facebook by customers across West Yorkshire.

  • We recently had our roof replaced by Connor and his team, and I honestly could not recommend them highly enough. From the very beginning, Connor was friendly and professional. Communication was excellent throughout the whole job. Any questions were answered quickly, and we were always kept informed about what was happening. The work was completed much quicker than we expected without compromising on quality, and the finished roof looks fantastic. The team worked hard, were respectful of our property, and left everything clean and tidy when they finished. Thank you to Connor and everyone involved for doing such a great job.

  • The work done was excellent. Turned up on time, worked all day, left the job tidy every day and the final finish was more than we expected. First class workers.

  • Connor and his team arrived on time every day and worked tirelessly to get the job done. They were well mannered, they did everything I asked and answered all of my questions. My roof looks great and I would highly recommend them to anyone thinking about using them. Thank you C&J.
