New Roofs

Complete roof replacements in tile, slate or lead — stripped back, re-felted, battened and re-covered to last for decades. Built for West London's period and modern homes alike.

When it's time

A roof built to outlast the repairs

There comes a point where patching an old roof stops making sense — the leaks keep moving, the covering is worn out, and every winter brings another call-out. A properly installed new roof draws a line under all of that.

We strip the old covering, inspect and repair the timbers, fit a modern breathable underlay and new treated battens, then re-cover in your chosen material with fresh lead detailing and ventilation. The result is a roof that protects the whole house for the long term — not just until next season.

What a re-roof includes

  • Full strip of the old covering and safe removal of waste
  • Inspection and repair of rafters, battens and timbers
  • Modern breathable membrane and new treated battens
  • New tile, slate or lead covering to your choice
  • Fresh lead flashings, valleys and ridge detailing
  • Roof ventilation to prevent condensation and damp

New roof questions

How much does a new roof cost in London? +
The cost depends on the size and pitch of the roof, the covering (concrete tile is cheaper than natural slate or clay, lead more again), access, scaffolding, and whether the timbers or insulation need attention. Every roof is different, so we give a clear written quote after inspecting yours — with no obligation.
How long does it take to replace a roof? +
A typical terraced or semi-detached house roof takes around one to two weeks depending on size, weather and complexity. We keep the property watertight throughout and give you a realistic timescale before we start.
How do I know if my roof needs replacing? +
Tell-tale signs include repeated leaks, widespread slipped or cracked tiles, a sagging roofline, daylight visible in the loft, damp or rotten timbers, and a covering that's simply reached the end of its life. If you're unsure, we'll assess it honestly and tell you whether a repair will do.
What roofing materials suit a Victorian terrace in Fulham? +
Fulham's Victorian and Edwardian terraces were mostly built with natural slate or clay tile, often with lead valleys and flashings. We match the original covering and detailing so the new roof looks right for the property — important in conservation areas — while performing to modern standards.
