What is a Pitched Roof?
A pitched roof is a sloped roof structure, usually between 15° and 45°, engineered for rapid water run-off and robust wind resistance. In Basingstoke, pitched roofs are constructed using clay tiles, concrete tiles, or natural/fibre-cement slate, combined with technical underlays, battens, and fixings to meet modern building regulations and withstand Hampshire’s wet and windy climate.
We install gable, hip, and complex multi-pitch roofs, all detailed for optimal insulation, ventilation, and longevity.

Choosing the Right Pitched Roofing Material in Basingstoke
Tile Roofing: Clay tiles offer 60–100 years of life, low water absorption, and a classic finish. Concrete tiles are cost-effective, durable, and available in a wide range of colours and profiles.
Slate Roofing: Natural slate is the premium choice for longevity and aesthetics, lasting up to 150 years. Fibre-cement slate is lighter and more affordable, ideal for modern builds.
Technical Detailing: We advise on the best material and fixing specification for your property, taking into account Basingstoke’s climate, exposure, and planning requirements.
| Material | Lifespan | Technical Pros | Technical Cons |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clay Tile | 60–100 years | Low water absorption, strong mechanical fixings, traditional look | Heavier load, higher cost, needs robust structure |
| Concrete Tile | 40–60 years | Cost-effective, wide range, compatible with dry ridge/verge | Heavier than slate, shorter lifespan |
| Natural Slate | 80–150 years | Premium, long-lasting, low maintenance, high wind resistance | Expensive, fragile to walk on, requires skilled installation |
| Fibre-Cement Slate | 30–50 years | Lightweight, easy to cut, cost-effective, modern look | Shorter lifespan, less authentic than natural slate |
