Planning Roofing Works For New Build Developments

Sequencing, scaffold strategy, plot-by-plot release and the cost of getting it wrong.

8 min read

On a multi-plot housing development the roof package is one of the single largest contributors to programme risk. Get the sequence wrong and you delay first-fix on every plot behind you.

Sequence to the release programme

We scale crews to your plot release programme. On Tregunnel Hill we ran multiple crews concurrently across the 130 units to hit the Duchy of Cornwall handover dates.

Scaffold strategy

Coordinate scaffold sequence with bricklayers and groundworkers from day one. We attend pre-start with the scaffold contractor as standard so handover dates are set before mobilisation.

Plot-level handover discipline

Each plot gets photographed at strip, felt-and-batten, slate-laid and signed-off stages — supporting NHBC inspection and your in-house QA.
