What's included

Roof Repairs We Carry Out Every Week

Most London roof problems come from a short list of culprits: wind-lifted tiles, failed mortar, worn lead flashing, blocked or cracked valleys. We fix all of them, and we show you photographs of the problem before we quote — so you can see exactly what you are paying for.

✓

Tile & Slate Replacement

Slipped, cracked or storm-blown tiles and slates lifted out and replaced like-for-like. We carry common profiles on the van and source matching reclaimed slates for older roofs.

✓

Ridge, Hip & Verge Repairs

Loose ridge tiles rebedded in fresh mortar or upgraded to a dry-ridge system — the modern fix that will not crack and let water in again.

✓

Lead Flashing Repairs

Split, lifted or stolen lead around chimneys, valleys and abutments cut out and renewed in code 4 lead, welded and dressed properly.

✓

Valley Repairs

Cracked concrete valley troughs and failing GRP valleys are a classic leak source. We renew the valley lining and reseat the cut tiles either side.

✓

Chimney Repointing

Crumbling chimney mortar is one of the most common causes of damp in London lofts. We rake out failed joints and repoint in a weather-resistant sand-and-cement mix.

✓

Emergency Make-Safe

Storm tore your roof open? Open 24 hours, we will make the roof watertight with a temporary repair first, then return for the permanent fix.

What a repair costs

Honest Price Bands for London Roof Repairs

Every roof is different, which is why our quotes are free and fixed after an inspection. As a rough guide, most 2026 London repair jobs land in these bands: a handful of slipped tiles replaced from £150 to £400; ridge rebedding from £250 to £600; lead flashing renewed around a chimney from £400 to £900; valley renewal from £500 to £1,200. Larger storm repairs vary with scaffolding needs. The written quote we give you is fixed — the price does not move once we start.

Warning signs

6 Signs Your Roof Needs a Repair

  1. Water marks on ceilings or walls. A brown stain is almost always a roof leak showing up late — the entry point can be metres away from the mark.
  2. Slipped or missing tiles. If you can see a gap from the street, water is getting straight under your roof covering with every downpour.
  3. Damp or daylight in the loft. Pop your head up after heavy rain: wet timbers, mould on the felt or pinholes of daylight all mean the covering is failing.
  4. Debris in the gutters after wind. Mortar and tile fragments in the gutter tell you the ridge or verge is breaking down, even if the roof looks fine.
  5. Green moss spreading across tiles. Moss holds moisture against the tile surface, which speeds up cracking in freeze-thaw cycles — common on shaded North London slopes.
  6. Sagging or uneven roofline. A dip in the ridge or a bowed slope can point to failed battens or rafters and needs a roofer's eye before it worsens.

FAQs

Roof Repair Questions, Answered

A simple tile replacement typically runs £150 to £400, ridge rebedding £250 to £600, and chimney flashing renewal £400 to £900 — though every roof differs. That is why we inspect first and give a free, fixed written quote: you know the exact price before any work begins, and it does not change afterwards.

We are open 24 hours, so for genuine emergencies — water coming in, storm damage, blown-off tiles — we aim to attend the same day, including nights and weekends. For standard repairs we usually survey within 24 to 48 hours and book the job within days.

As a rule of thumb, if the roof is generally sound and the problem is localised — a few slipped tiles, one failed valley, worn flashing — a repair is the sensible and far cheaper option. If repairs keep recurring across different areas, or the covering is at the end of its life, we will tell you honestly that replacement is better value. We show you photographs and explain the trade-off in plain English.

Yes. All of our workmanship is fully guaranteed. We have been family-run since 1982 and we intend to be around for decades more — if anything we repaired ever fails, you call us and we come back to put it right.
