    Have you applied for Planning Permission?

    If this is on the front of your house, changing from a flat roofed bay to a tiled one is going to alter the appearance considerably and won't be permitted development.

    Where I used to live, even though it wasn't that posh, such a change wouldn't have been permitted at all.

    It changes the whole street scene if everyone does their own thing. That may or may not matter, depending on where it is.
