Slate and tile roofing in London

Repair the defect or renew the roof?

A missing tile does not automatically mean a new roof. We look at the local problem and the wider condition of the covering, fixings and associated details. If a repair is sensible, the quotation can focus on that. If deterioration is widespread, we explain why a replacement may be a better longer-term option.

Slate, plain tiles and interlocking tiles

The covering needs to suit the pitch, roof shape and supporting structure. Matching an existing roof also involves size, profile and appearance. Share any plans or requirements you already have so the proposed material can be considered before ordering. We do not assume that a heavier covering can replace a lighter one without assessment.

The details at the edges and junctions

Ridges, hips, valleys, eaves and chimney flashings all contribute to a weather-resistant roof. A quotation for renewal should explain whether underlay, battens, ventilation and associated leadwork are included. Guttering and access are worth considering at the same stage so related work can be planned together.

Working on your home

Tell us about rear access, extensions, a shared driveway or a neighbouring roof. These details influence scaffolding and the working arrangements. We discuss the scope, proposed access and handling of the existing materials before work is agreed.

A clear written quotation

Send the postcode and explain whether you have a leak, visibly damaged tiles or a survey recommendation. Ground-level photographs and existing reports can help us understand the enquiry. A roofing quotation is free; a detailed condition report for a purchase or other formal purpose is a separate service.
