Project Details
At TessCon, we recently completed a comprehensive roofing project for a property on Monmouth Drive, Sutton Coldfield. The work involved the installation of a new re-tiled pitched roof and two expertly constructed flat roofs, ensuring a durable, weatherproof finish for the entire property.
- Pitched Roof: The main house roof was fully stripped, and new tiles were installed, providing an attractive and long-lasting solution. The new tiles not only enhance the visual appeal of the home but also significantly improve its resistance to the elements.
- Flat Roofs: Two flat roofs were upgraded using high-quality materials, ensuring maximum waterproofing and durability. These roofs are ideal for combating the unpredictable British weather, offering reliable protection and longevity.

Pitched and Flat Roof FAQs
What are the main differences between pitched and flat roofs?
Pitched roofs have a noticeable slope, allowing for efficient water drainage and often providing additional attic space. Flat roofs, while appearing level, typically have a slight gradient to facilitate water runoff. They are generally more cost-effective and quicker to install but may require more maintenance to prevent water pooling.
Which type of roof is more suitable for the Sutton Coldfield climate?
Both pitched and flat roofs can be suitable for Sutton Coldfield’s climate when properly constructed and maintained. Pitched roofs naturally shed rain and snow, reducing the risk of leaks. Flat roofs, when installed with high-quality materials and adequate drainage systems, can also perform well. Consult TessCon, your local roofing specialist, to help determine the best option for your property.
What maintenance is required for flat roofs compared to pitched roofs?
Flat roofs may require more frequent inspections to ensure drainage systems are clear and to check for signs of water pooling or membrane damage. Pitched roofs also need regular maintenance, such as inspecting for broken tiles or slates and ensuring gutters are debris-free. Regular maintenance of both types can extend their lifespan and prevent costly repairs.
Can I convert my flat roof to a pitched roof?
Yes, converting a flat roof to a pitched roof is possible and can enhance the aesthetic appeal and drainage efficiency of your property. However, such a conversion involves structural modifications and requires planning permission. It’s essential to consult with experienced roofing contractors in Sutton Coldfield to assess feasibility, design considerations, and compliance with local building regulations.
How much does it cost to repair or replace a roof in Sutton Coldfield?
The cost varies depending on factors such as the roof type, size, materials, and complexity of the project. At TessCon, we provide tailored quotes based on your specific needs. Contact us today to arrange a no-obligation consultation and get an accurate cost for your roofing project.
