HOME > New roofs
A new roof isn’t something you do on a whim. Usually it’s prompted by years of small repairs, repeated leaks, or a roof that’s simply reached the end of its life. You might notice tiles slipping more often, damp showing up in the loft, or that the roof just looks tired compared to the rest of the property. If you’re planning a renovation or you’ve bought a home that needs bringing up to scratch, it’s the same story — you want it done once, done properly, and built to last.
At Southeast Roofing & Building, we install new roofs in Chesham and carry out new roof installations across Buckinghamshire, with a focus on solid workmanship and clear advice. We’ve got 10 years’ experience, all work is fully insured and guaranteed, and we’re proud of the reputation we’ve earned on Checkatrade, TrustATrader and Google.


A new roof can mean a full replacement (re-roofing) or an installation on an extension or new build. Either way, it’s not just about how it looks — it’s about weatherproofing, ventilation, insulation performance, and getting the details right so you don’t end up chasing issues later.
If your project includes a roof replacement because the current roof is beyond repair, we’ll explain what we’re changing and why — and we’ll keep the whole job organised so it doesn’t drag on.

Our new roof installations and re-roofing services typically cover:
Removal of old roof coverings where required and safe disposal
Inspection of the roof structure and replacement of any damaged timbers (if needed)
New breathable membrane/felt and battens installed to suit the roof type
Supply and fitting of tiles or slates (matched where possible for the look of the property)
Ridge, hip and verge systems fitted securely and neatly
Leadwork and flashing around chimneys, valleys and abutments
Optional upgrades to roofline components (fascias, soffits and guttering connections)
Final checks to ensure everything is watertight, secure and finished properly

We’re based around Chesham and work across Buckinghamshire day in, day out. That includes nearby places such as Amersham, Great Missenden, Wendover, Beaconsfield, High Wycombe, Aylesbury, and the surrounding villages. If you’re just outside these areas, it’s still worth getting in touch — chances are we’re working nearby already.




10 years’ roofing experience We’ve spent a decade working on roofs across Chesham and Buckinghamshire, so we understand what holds up in real conditions — not just what looks good on day one.
Local knowledge of Buckinghamshire properties The area has a real mix: period homes, newer estates, and plenty of extensions. Different roof types come with different weak spots. We’re used to working around chimneys, valleys, awkward junctions, and tight access — the kind of practical details that matter when you’re on-site, not just quoting from a desk.
Workmanship people mention in reviews Customers regularly talk about reliability, clear communication and the finish of the work. A new roof is a big investment, and we treat it like one. No rushed corners, no messy handovers, no disappearing after the job’s “mostly done”.
Fully insured and guaranteed work
From vision to reality, we make transforming your space an effortless journey.




If repairs are becoming frequent, leaks keep returning, or the roof covering is at end of life, a roof replacement can be the most cost-effective long-term option. We’ll assess the roof and give honest advice.
It depends on the size of the roof, the material, access, and weather. After a survey, we’ll give you a realistic timescale and keep you updated as the job progresses.
In many cases, yes. We’ll advise on the closest match or suitable alternatives, especially on older homes where maintaining the look matters.
Yes — we’re fully insured, and all new roof work is guaranteed.
We do. We work throughout Buckinghamshire and are regularly in the surrounding towns and villages.
