NEW ROOF INSTALLATIONS
Expert New Roof Installations Across Swindon, Oxford & Surrounding Areas
At Crown Guard Roofing Services, we specialise in complete new roof installations for residential and commercial properties across Watchfield, Swindon, Oxford, Witney, Carterton, Abingdon, Didcot and the surrounding areas. As a family-owned business with over 10 years of hands-on experience, we’ve installed countless roofs across the region — and we treat every one of them like it’s going on our own home.
A new roof is one of the most important investments you’ll ever make in your property. Done right, it adds value, improves energy efficiency, transforms the look of your home and protects everything beneath it for decades to come. Done badly, it becomes an expensive problem.
That’s why our skilled team takes the time to do things properly — using quality materials, proven installation methods and meticulous attention to detail. From the first inspection to the final ridge tile, every roof we install is fully insured and backed by our industry-leading 15-year workmanship guarantee.
Whether you’re replacing an old, failing roof, building a new property, or carrying out an extension, we’ll deliver a roof that looks fantastic, performs brilliantly and lasts the distance.
Types of New Roofs We Install
We work with every major roofing material and style — and we’ll help you choose the right option for your property, your budget and the look you want.
Roof Types
- New Tiled Roofs Concrete and clay tile installations in every style — from traditional plain tiles to modern interlocking profiles. Durable, weatherproof and available in a wide range of colours and finishes.
- New Slate Roofs Beautiful natural and reclaimed slate roof installations. The premium choice for character properties, period homes and discerning new builds — with a lifespan of 80–100+ years when properly fitted.
- New Flat Roofs EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass and high-performance felt flat roofing systems for extensions, garages, dormers and commercial properties. Watertight, low-maintenance and built to last.
- New Pitched Roofs Complete pitched roof construction for new builds, extensions and full re-roofs — including timber structure, felt, battens, insulation and finished tile or slate covering.
- Re-Roofing & Roof Replacements Stripping back a tired or failing roof and rebuilding it from the structure up. Often the most cost-effective long-term solution when repairs are no longer viable.
- Commercial Roof Installations Full new roofing systems for shops, offices, industrial units, warehouses and other commercial buildings — minimum disruption, maximum quality.
- Lead Roofing & Detailing Specialist lead work for valleys, flashings, dormers, bay windows and traditional features — fitted to last for generations.
Is It Time for a New Roof?
Not every roof problem needs a full replacement but sometimes, ongoing repairs simply aren’t worth it anymore. Here are the most common signs your roof has reached the end of its life:
Visible Warning Signs
- Roof is over 40–50 years old (tile) or 80+ years (slate)
- Multiple missing, cracked or slipping tiles
- Sagging or uneven roof line
- Widespread moss, algae and vegetation
- Granules from tiles collecting in gutters
- Damaged, rusted or failing flashings throughout
Inside Your Home
- Persistent leaks despite repeated repairs
- Damp patches, mould or staining on ceilings
- Daylight visible through the loft roof
- Rising heating bills (poor insulation/ventilation)
- Sagging ceilings or visible water damage
- Repair costs creeping higher every year
If any of these sound familiar, it’s worth getting an honest expert opinion. We’ll inspect your roof for free and tell you straight whether a repair will do the job — or whether a new roof would actually save you money in the long run.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our customers often ask the same questions when planning a new roof, so here are clear, honest answers to the most common ones:
For most domestic properties, a typical new roof installation takes between 3 and 7 days, depending on the size of the property, the type of roof and the weather. We'll always give you a realistic timescale in your written quote — and we stick to it.
Every roof is different, so prices vary based on size, materials (tile vs slate vs flat), access, scaffolding requirements and the condition of the existing structure. A typical new roof in our area can range from a few thousand pounds for a small property up to considerably more for larger or premium installations. We provide free, fixed-price written quotes so you know the exact cost before any work begins — with no hidden extras.
That depends on the materials. As a general guide:
- Concrete tiles: 40–60+ years
- Clay tiles: 60–80+ years
- Natural slate: 80–100+ years
- Felt flat roofs: 15–25 years
- EPDM rubber flat roofs: 30–50 years
- GRP fibreglass flat roofs: 25–30+ years
Our 15-year workmanship guarantee covers the installation work itself.
For most like-for-like roof replacements on existing homes, planning permission isn't usually required — it falls under permitted development. However, if you're changing the roof shape, height, or material on a listed building or in a conservation area, planning consent may be needed. We're happy to advise.
No. A new roof installation is carried out from the outside, so you can stay in your home throughout. There may be some noise during working hours, but disruption inside the property is minimal.
Yes — Crown Guard Roofing is fully insured with comprehensive public liability cover. We're happy to provide proof of insurance before any work begins.
Every new roof installation we carry out is backed by our 15-year workmanship guarantee — one of the strongest in the local industry. The roofing materials themselves also come with their own manufacturer warranties, often considerably longer.
Absolutely. We'll talk you through the available tile or slate options during your survey, including colours, finishes and profiles, so you get a roof that perfectly suits your home's style.
