For roof repairs specifically, this housing mix creates distinct demands. Welsh slate on Victorian stock, clay tiles on Edwardian, concrete tiles on 1930s and post-war estates, flat bituminous roofs on post-war blocks. One of South London's heaviest slate-roofed boroughs. — and each roof type requires different materials, methods and experience to repair or replace correctly.

Properties in the valley bottom around Ladywell and Catford Bridge experience notably damper conditions than higher ground at Brockley and Honor Oak.

Slate nail sickness across Brockley and Catford Victorian stock is the dominant repair call — original iron nails now 120–140 years old failing across entire streets.

Every roof repairs job in Lewisham starts with a proper inspection — from the roof, not the pavement. We photograph the issue, explain the cause, and give you a written quote with no hidden costs. Most minor work is completed same-day. Larger projects are scheduled within days and we keep you updated throughout.
Every repair starts with a proper ladder or scaffold inspection — we photograph the damage, trace the water path, and identify the root cause before quoting. Too many roofers treat symptoms rather than causes. A slipped tile might be the visible problem, but the underlying issue could be nail sickness affecting the entire row, a sagging batten, or thermal movement in the lead flashing below. We diagnose properly, explain what we find, and quote for the actual fix — not just what is visible from the street.
Our vans carry reclaimed Welsh slate in common sizes, new Spanish slate, plain clay tiles, concrete interlocking tiles, lead sheet in codes 3–5, zinc flashing, breathable membrane, treated battens, stainless steel and copper fixings, roof sealants and emergency tarpaulins. For most standard repairs in Lewisham, we have the right materials on the van and can complete the work on the first visit. For unusual tile types, conservation-grade materials, or large-scale repairs, we source specifically and schedule a return date.
Minor patch repairs carry a 2-year workmanship guarantee. Structural repairs — valley replacements, chimney reflashing, ridge system renewals — carry our full 10-year guarantee. All materials carry their own manufacturer warranty on top. We stand behind every repair because we know the specification was right and the workmanship was done properly. If an issue recurs within the guarantee period, we return and fix it at no cost.
