Roof Replacement in Burton upon Trent Project Overview


LR Roofing recently completed a comprehensive roof replacement in Burton upon Trent, transforming the appearance and performance of a family home through a coordinated roofing and exterior renovation project.


The homeowners wanted to modernise their property while improving its long-term weather protection, thermal performance and energy efficiency.


Rather than simply replacing the existing roof covering, the project brought together a complete new tiled roof, integrated solar panels, insulated cladding and upgraded roofline products.


The result is a modern, cohesive exterior designed to provide lasting protection and a fresh appearance.


Complete Re-Roofing with New Russell Bute Roof Tiles


The first stage involved carefully removing the existing roof covering and installing a complete new roofing system.


Our experienced roofing team carried out the following work:

  • Installation of Russell Bute roof tiles

  • New 175gsm breathable roofing membrane

  • Modern dry-fix ridge, hip, valley and verge systems

  • New lead flashings where required

  • Replacement fascias, soffits and guttering


Each component was selected and installed with durability, weather resistance and long-term performance in mind.


The new tiled roof provides reliable protection against the elements while creating a smart, consistent finish across the property.


Integrated Solar Roofing for a Seamless Finish


One of the key features of this roof replacement project was the incorporation of an integrated solar roofing system.


Unlike traditional solar panels mounted above the existing roof tiles, integrated solar panels sit within the roof covering, creating a cleaner, more streamlined appearance.

By incorporating the solar system as part of the complete re-roofing project, the homeowners were able to combine a new roof installation with a renewable energy solution.


The integrated panels complement the new roof tiles and provide an opportunity to generate electricity, potentially reducing reliance on mains electricity and supporting lower future energy costs.


For homeowners considering a roof replacement, integrating solar panels during the roofing works can be an attractive option.


Modern Insulated Cladding Transformation


Alongside the new roof, LR Roofing completed an extensive cladding upgrade to modernise the exterior of the property.


The existing vertical tile hanging was removed and replaced with the homeowners' chosen cladding system.


New insulation boards and counter battens were installed behind the cladding to support improved thermal performance.


This upgrade created a significant visual transformation, giving the property a more contemporary appearance while improving the external building envelope.


By completing the roofing and cladding works as part of one coordinated project, the different elements could be finished to complement each other.


New Leadwork & Roofline Improvements


Attention to detail is essential on any complete roof replacement, particularly around roof junctions, flashings and drainage.


New lead flashings were installed where required to help protect vulnerable areas against water ingress.


The project also included replacement fascias, soffits and guttering, ensuring the roofline complemented the new tiled roof and cladding.


These finishing elements play an important role in directing rainwater away from the property and protecting the roof structure.


The Finished Result – A Complete Exterior Transformation


The completed project brought together several major improvements:

  • A complete new tiled roof

  • Flush-fitting integrated solar panels

  • Modern insulated exterior cladding

  • New leadwork and roof detailing

  • Replacement fascias, soffits and guttering


Together, these upgrades have transformed the appearance of the home while improving its weather protection and supporting better thermal and energy performance.


Most importantly, the homeowners were delighted with the finished result.

Seeing their reaction when the scaffolding was removed made this project particularly rewarding for the LR Roofing team.


We would like to thank the homeowners for trusting us with their property and allowing us to complete such an extensive transformation.
