Roof replacements in London.

Does your roof need repairing or replacing?

Repeated leaks, worn coverings and a history of repairs can be reasons to consider a wider renewal. They do not all lead to the same specification. We assess the condition, discuss what can be retained and explain the proposed scope.

Our work covers slate and tiled pitched roofs as well as flat-roof renewals. A terrace, an extension and the roof of a residential block have different details and access needs.

What your roof replacement quotation should include

The quotation should identify the work included and any exclusions. If underlying damage is revealed during the work, the response needs to be assessed and agreed.

• The proposed slate, tile or flat-roof covering
• Underlay, battens and ventilation where relevant
• Ridges, hips, valleys, eaves and edge details
• Chimney junctions, flashings and adjoining roof levels
• Scaffolding, access and removal of old materials

Plan access and disruption early

Tell us about occupied flats, shared entrances, garden access and any restrictions affecting the property. These details help establish the arrangements for scaffolding, deliveries and waste removal.

We discuss the proposed programme and applicable guarantee arrangements before work is agreed. Insurance-backed guarantees are available for eligible work; the relevant cover and terms need to be confirmed for your specification.

Compare the work behind each quotation.

Preparation, access, the layers beneath the covering and roof details can make two replacement proposals very different. Use our eight-point roofing quotation checklist to compare the scope. If you are still weighing up a local repair, the repair or replacement guide sets out the questions to ask first.
