When Does it Make Sense to Invest in a New Roof?
A new roof is a vital investment in your property, offering long-term benefits in terms of protection, energy efficiency and value. Plymouth residents might consider calling in a roofer for new roof construction in the following scenarios:
- You’re building a new home or extension and require a roofing solution tailored to your architectural plans.
- Your current roof is outdated, and you want a fresh start with modern materials and designs.
- You’re looking to enhance the appearance of your property with a visually striking and durable roof.
- You need a roofing solution with improved insulation to lower energy bills.
At Ocean City Roofing, we work closely with Plymouth homeowners to design and install new roofs that complement their style and meet practical requirements.
Pitched Roofs
Pitched roofs are a classic choice for UK homes, known for their longevity and visual appeal. We offer new roof construction using two main materials: slate and tile.
Slate Roofs
Slate is a premium material that combines elegance with exceptional durability.
Key Benefits:
- Longevity: Slate roofs can last over a century with proper care.
- Weather Resistance: Naturally resistant to the elements.
- Timeless Aesthetic: Slate offers a traditional, high-end appearance that suits both period and contemporary homes.
This option is ideal for homeowners in Plymouth seeking a roofing solution that enhances kerb appeal while withstanding the coast’s variable weather conditions.
Tile Roofs
Tile roofing is a versatile and cost-effective alternative, available in a range of colours and styles.
Key Benefits:
- Durability: Withstands harsh weather and requires minimal maintenance.
- Variety: Choose from clay, concrete or synthetic tiles to suit your design preferences.
- Energy Efficiency: Provides excellent insulation, reducing heating costs.
We’d recommend tile for modern homes or those looking to achieve a more vibrant, customisable aesthetic.


Flat Roofing
For more contemporary designs or a pragmatic and affordable solution, consider our flat roofs. Ocean City Roofing specialises in the installation of several types of flat roofing in Plymouth and its surrounds, each with unique benefits explored below.
GRP Roofing (Glass Reinforced Plastic)
Key Benefits:
- Seamless and waterproof, preventing leaks.
- Low maintenance with a sleek and modern appearance.
- Durable and long-lasting, withstanding foot traffic if required.
We typically recommend GRP flat roofs for extensions, garages and garden offices in Plymouth, as it provides a clean, professional finish; especially when installed by a veteran roofer like Ocean City Roofing.
EPDM Roofing (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer)
Tile roofing is a versatile and cost-effective alternative, available in a range of colours and styles.
Key Benefits:
- Highly resistant to UV damage, ideal for sunny or exposed areas.
- Flexible and strong, adapting well to structural movement.
- Environmentally friendly due to its recyclable nature.
EPDM is a great choice for similar applications to GRP, and excels when used for small-scale residential roofs.
Felt Roofing
Tile roofing is a versatile and cost-effective alternative, available in a range of colours and styles.
Key Benefits:
- Cost-effective with a quick installation process.
- Durable and weatherproof, offering excellent protection.
- Easily repairable, extending the roof’s lifespan.
The most affordable, “on a budget” option we offer, felt flat roofs are commonly used for sheds, outhouses and utility spaces. There’s a reason why nearly every roofer works with felt: it offers reliability at an affordable price.

Roof Conservation
In addition to new roof construction, Ocean City Roofing is dedicated to preserving the architectural integrity of Plymouth’s historic homes. We’re a roofer that’s experienced in meeting conservation standards and regulatory requirements, ensuring that your property retains its original charm while benefiting from modern roofing materials and techniques.
