Roofing on period properties needs matching materials

Most roofs we work on across Hampstead and Highgate are slate or clay tile, often on conservation-area properties where the local planning authority has specific expectations about matching materials on any visible repair. We stock and source materials that actually match rather than defaulting to whatever's quickest to get.

For urgent repairs — a slipped tile, a leak during heavy rain — we prioritise getting someone out fast, since roof problems tend to get worse quickly if left.

What's included

  • Slate and clay tile roof repairs and re-roofing
  • Flat roof repair and replacement, including EPDM and felt
  • Emergency leak repairs and storm damage call-outs
  • Chimney flashing and valley repairs
  • Gutter repair and replacement

Re-roofs vs. repairs

Not every roof problem needs a full re-roof, and we won't quote one if a targeted repair genuinely solves the issue. Where a roof is at the end of its working life, we'll explain why a repair would just be a temporary fix before you spend money on it.

Common questions

How quickly can you assess a roof leak?

Most call-outs are assessed within 48 hours — for anything actively leaking into the property, we prioritise getting someone out sooner.

Do you match roofing materials on conservation-area properties?

Yes — we source matching slate, tile or lead flashing wherever the property's location or listing status requires it, and we'll flag if planning permission is needed for anything beyond like-for-like repair.

How long does a full re-roof take?

A typical residential re-roof takes 1–2 weeks depending on roof size, pitch and weather conditions during the work.
