Home New Pitched Roof on Extension – Farnborough Hampshire
We recently completed the construction and installation of a new pitched roof on a property extension in Farnborough, Hampshire, taking the roof from the new timber structure through to the finished tiled roof.
This project involved creating a completely new roof structure for the extension and carefully integrating the new roof with the existing property. With extension roofing, one of the most important parts of the job is ensuring that the new and existing roofs work together correctly, particularly around valleys and other junctions where rainwater is concentrated.
The completed roof provides the new extension with a strong, weather-resistant roofing system while the choice of tiles complements the appearance of the existing property.
As the project photographs show, the work started with the construction of the new timber pitched roof structure.
The rafters and supporting roof timbers were constructed and set out to create the required pitch and provide a strong framework for the finished roofing system.
Once the timber structure was completed, the roof was prepared with a modern roofing membrane and new treated battens before the tiles were installed.

->New Roof Valley & Existing Roof Integration
A particularly important element of this project was the junction between the new extension roof and the existing tiled roof.
The photographs show the new roof meeting the original roof and the valley formed between the two sections.
Roof valleys carry a significant amount of rainwater, making correct installation and detailing essential. Poorly constructed valleys are a common source of roof leaks, particularly where an extension has been added to an older property.
The new valley was carefully installed and weatherproofed to provide effective drainage between the two roof sections and create a reliable, long-term junction between the new and existing roofs.
The finished tiled roof gives the extension a traditional appearance that sits naturally alongside the existing property.
Rather than the extension looking like a completely separate addition, the new pitched roof has been designed and constructed to complement the style and roofline of the original building.
The result is a strong, professionally constructed new roof with the correct membrane, battens, tiling and weatherproof detailing underneath the finished surface.
