We use a broad range of materials depending on the property and the client’s requirements. For pitched roofs, that includes concrete tiles, clay tiles, natural slate and synthetic slate. For flat roofs, we install GRP fibreglass, high-performance torch-on felt and EPDM rubber membranes. We also carry out lead work for flashings, valleys and flat bay tops. Our surveyors can advise on the best option for your particular roof.

It depends on the size and complexity of the project. A straightforward re-roof on a standard semi-detached house in Northwood might take three to five working days. Larger or more complex projects — such as those involving structural repairs, dormer work or multiple roof types — can take longer. We will give you a realistic timeline during the quotation stage so you know what to expect.

Yes. If your roof has been damaged by a storm, a fallen branch or any other sudden event, get in touch as soon as possible. We will arrange for one of our roofers to attend your property promptly, assess the damage and carry out the necessary repairs to make your roof watertight. Where a permanent fix is not possible straight away, we will put temporary measures in place to protect your property until the full repair can be completed.

We are based in London and carry out roofing work across Northwood, Northwood Hills, Harrow, Pinner, Ruislip, Wembley, Stanmore, Edgware, Watford, Rickmansworth, Uxbridge, Hillingdon and the surrounding areas. We also work further afield in Essex, Hertfordshire and Kent. If you are unsure whether we cover your area, just give us a ring and we will let you know.

We generally recommend a professional roof inspection at least once a year — ideally in the autumn before winter weather sets in. Properties with older roofs, large trees nearby or known issues such as failing mortar may benefit from more frequent checks. Regular inspections catch small problems early and help avoid unexpected repair costs.

They are. We carry out a full site survey at no charge, and you will receive a detailed written quotation by email within 24 hours. There is absolutely no pressure to proceed — the quote is there for you to consider in your own time. If you have questions after receiving it, we are happy to talk them through.

Yes. We regularly carry out roofing projects on commercial buildings including offices, retail units, warehouses and multi-occupancy properties across Northwood and Greater London. Whether you need a flat roof installation, a maintenance programme or urgent repairs, our team has the experience and equipment to handle commercial-scale work.

With the right materials and proper installation, a new pitched tile or slate roof should last anywhere from 40 to 60 years or more. Flat roofing systems such as GRP fibreglass typically have a lifespan of 25 to 30 years. A lot depends on the quality of the materials used, the standard of workmanship and how well the roof is maintained over time.

Common warning signs include persistent leaks even after repairs, sagging or dipping roof lines, widespread cracked or missing tiles, daylight visible through the roof boards, and damp or mould appearing in the loft space. If you are noticing any of these, it is worth having a professional survey carried out. We can inspect your roof free of charge and advise whether a repair or replacement makes more sense.

We install pitched roofs (tiled and slated), flat roofs (GRP fibreglass, felt and EPDM rubber), lead roofs, and specialist roofing such as Velux window installations and dormer roofs. We also carry out complete re-roofing projects that involve stripping back to the rafters and rebuilding from scratch. Whatever the roof type, we will talk you through the options and help you choose the right solution for your property.
