- Trusted roofers in Cheltenham
A new roof is one of the most significant investments you can make in your property — protecting your home from the elements, improving thermal performance, and adding long-term value. At Montpellier Roofing Contractors, we specialise in professional new roof installations and complete roof replacements for homeowners across Cheltenham, Gloucester, Stroud, Cirencester, the Forest of Dean and the wider Gloucestershire area. Whether your current roof has reached the end of its working life, has persistent leaks that repairs can no longer solve, or you are renovating a property and need a full re-roof as part of the project, our experienced team handles the entire process — from initial inspection and scaffolding through to the final ridge tile and clean-up.
Welsh slate, Spanish slate and reclaimed slate for period properties, conservation areas and homes where a traditional appearance is important. Lifespan: 75–100+ years.
Handmade and machine-made clay plain tiles and pantiles for character and longevity. Lifespan: 60–80 years.
Concrete interlocking tiles (Marley, Redland, Russell) for modern and mid-century properties — durable, cost-effective and available in a wide range of profiles and colours. Lifespan: 50–60 years.
Reconstituted and reclaimed stone slates for properties in the Cotswolds where planning or conservation requirements apply.
GRP fibreglass, EPDM rubber and torch-on felt for garages, extensions, dormers and outbuildings. Lifespan: 20–30+ years.
Every new roof installation is completed with quality materials, skilled workmanship and a clear written guarantee. We also carry out all associated work during the re-roof — including timber and structural repairs, new battens and breathable membrane, fascia, soffit and guttering replacement, dry ridge and dry verge system installation, chimney repointing and lead flashing renewal, and insulation upgrades where required by Building Regulations Part L.
We provide a complete range of new roof services for residential properties across Cheltenham and Gloucestershire:
A new roof is a major investment — you need it done right, by a team you can trust. Here is why homeowners across Cheltenham and Gloucestershire choose Montpellier Roofing Contractors for their new roof installations.
Our team has carried out hundreds of new roof installations across Cheltenham, Gloucester, the Cotswolds and the Forest of Dean — on Victorian terraces, Edwardian semis, post-war housing, modern detached homes and rural cottages. We understand which materials perform best on which property types and in which locations.
Before any work starts, you receive a detailed written quote covering the full scope: stripping, structural inspection, timber repairs, membrane, battens, tiles/slates, ridges, verges, flashings, roofline, scaffolding and clean-up. If additional work is discovered during the strip (e.g. rotten timbers), we discuss it with you and agree the cost before proceeding.
Every roofer on our team is experienced, skilled and fully insured. We carry public liability insurance and follow safe working practices — including full scaffold access for all new roof installations.
All new roof installations are fully guaranteed. We use quality materials from established manufacturers and follow their specified installation procedures to ensure both our guarantee and the manufacturer's material warranty are valid.
While roof repairs can solve many common problems, there comes a point where patching an ageing roof is no longer practical or cost-effective. If multiple areas are failing, the felt beneath the tiles has deteriorated, or the timber structure shows signs of rot or sagging, a full roof replacement is the right long-term decision.
Our re-roofing process typically follows these steps:
If you have noticed any of the warning signs above, our team can carry out a free roof inspection and provide honest advice on whether a repair or full replacement is the best option for your property.

Montpellier Roofing Contractors are based in Cheltenham and provide roofing services across the town and nearby areas throughout Gloucestershire.
Our team regularly works across Cheltenham’s residential areas, carrying out roof repairs, installations and maintenance for homeowners and local businesses.
Areas we commonly cover include:
A typical new roof on a standard semi-detached or detached Cheltenham home takes 5–10 working days, depending on size, materials, structural repair needed and weather. Larger properties or projects requiring chimney work or roofline replacement may take longer. We provide a clear timeframe in your written quote.
It depends on the material. A professionally installed natural slate roof can last 75–100+ years. Clay tiles: 60–80 years. Concrete interlocking tiles: 50–60 years. Flat roofs (GRP/EPDM): 25–30+ years. Regular maintenance — clear gutters, remove moss, inspect flashings — extends these lifespans further.
Yes. All our new roof installations come with a workmanship guarantee. We use quality materials from established manufacturers and follow their specified procedures, ensuring both our guarantee and the manufacturer's material warranty are valid.
Yes. We regularly work on older and period properties across Cheltenham, the Cotswolds and Gloucestershire. We match existing slate or clay tile materials to maintain the character of your property, and advise on conservation-appropriate materials where planning requirements apply.
Our quotes cover: scaffolding, stripping the old covering, timber inspection and repairs, breathable membrane, new battens, laying tiles/slates, ridge/hip/verge systems, lead flashings, and full clean-up. Roofine replacement or chimney work is quoted separately and clearly itemised.
In most cases, yes. Scaffolding is already in place, making it significantly more cost-effective to upgrade the roofline at the same time. We inspect your fascias, soffits and guttering during the quote and recommend replacement if they are showing wear.
Yes. All our new roof installations include dry ridge and dry verge systems as standard where building regulations require it (BS 8612). These mechanically fixed systems are stronger, longer-lasting and fully ventilated compared to traditional mortar bedding.
