An efficient renewal of the roof of this terraced house. With sleek dark roof tiles and a new roof window, the house is optimally protected again and gets more natural light.
In Niel we carried out a quick, effective roof renovation for this characterful terraced house. The dated roof was stripped completely and given a new underlay, after which we laid high-quality dark roof tiles. At the same time we integrated a modern roof window to give the space below extra daylight and ventilation. The existing façade was kept, so the new roof stands out beautifully against the traditional brick.

How we went about it 3 steps, one point of contact.
Phase 1Strip-out and underlay
Safe removal of the old roof covering and installation of a high-quality underlay to protect against the weather and moisture.
Phase 2Roof window installation
Precise cutting of the roof structure and watertight installation of the new roof window for extra ventilation and daylight.
Phase 3Finishing with roof tiles
Laying the sleek dark roof tiles, finishing the roof edges and checking the zinc work around the roof window and chimney.
What we carried out
Complete roof renewal
- Installation of durable, dark ceramic roof tiles

100%Roof watertightness

A new roof works wonders for the look and safety of your home. By adding the roof window, we not only renewed the outside of this terraced house in Niel but also considerably improved the living comfort inside.

Frequently asked questions About this project.
Is it possible to install a roof window in an existing roof?
Yes. Although in this project it was combined with a complete roof renovation, we can also perfectly integrate a roof window into your existing roof structure without renewing the whole roof.
How long does a roof renovation of a terraced house take?
For a standard terraced house like this project in Niel, renewing the tiles and installing a roof window takes 1 to 2 weeks on average, depending on the weather.
Do I have to insulate the roof if I lay new tiles?
It is not compulsory, but it is the ideal moment to bring your roof insulation up to the latest standards. Insulating from the outside (sarking) is very efficient when the tiles are being removed anyway.
