South London Roofing Specialists

A repair may be enough if the issue is limited to a small area, such as a few slipped tiles, damaged flashing or a localised leak. A full replacement is more likely where there is widespread deterioration, recurring leaks, failing felt or battens, or multiple parts of the roof reaching the end of their serviceable life. We inspect the roof first and explain whether a repair is realistic or whether replacement would be the better long-term option.

If your roof is leaking, try to protect the inside of the property first by moving valuables, using containers to catch water and limiting further damage where it is safe to do so. Then contact us as soon as possible. Roof leaks often travel before they become visible indoors, so the source is not always directly above the water mark. We can assess the issue and recommend the most suitable repair.

That depends on the weather conditions and the type of work required. Minor temporary measures may sometimes be possible, but many roofing repairs are safer and more reliable when carried out in dry conditions. If the weather is too poor for a permanent repair, we can advise on the safest next step and return when conditions allow.

The cost depends on the size of the roof, the type of materials, ease of access, whether scaffolding is required and the extent of the work. A small repair will cost far less than a full roof replacement, but the only honest answer comes after inspection. We provide clear quotations so you know exactly what work is being recommended and why.

Timescales vary depending on the size and condition of the roof, the scope of work, material availability and the weather. Some repairs can be completed quickly, while larger projects such as full replacements take longer and may require scaffolding and staged work. Once we have inspected the roof, we can give you a clearer timescale for the job.
