New Roofs and Re-Roofing in Putney
Putney combines Victorian terraces running up from the river with large Edwardian houses on Putney Hill and plenty of 20th-century flats. We regularly deal with slate roofs that have reached the end of their life, worn lead flashing and flat roofs over rear extensions here.
We have the experience to re-roof all types of property, from traditional tiled and slate roofs to flat roofs. Spotting the signs of deterioration early matters, because left untreated they usually mean the whole roof has to be replaced.
A patch repair is not always the most economical choice, and a new roof can save money over the longer term. We talk you through efficient, up-to-date materials and methods so the new roof is a worthwhile investment in your property.
We are happy to visit, look at the roof and price up the different options, with costs depending on the size of the property and the area of roof. For a free quote on a new roof in Putney, call 07467 757 367.

New Roofs in Putney: What We See Locally
Slate roofs that have reached the end of their life are something we see often in Putney. On Victorian terraces especially, slates become brittle, nails rust and battens weaken, and once leaks keep returning in different places, patch repairs stop making financial sense.
We carry out complete re-roofing of pitched and flat roofs, from terraced houses to large Edwardian homes, and will give you honest advice on whether replacement is truly needed. Each new roof begins with a site visit and a quote, as the cost depends on the size and type of roof. We can also suggest more efficient options, such as better insulation. If the house is in a conservation area, check with Wandsworth Council before changing materials. We re-roof in Roehampton and Barnes too.
Putney is roughly 13 miles from our head office in Staines, well within the area our roofers cover every week. Like-for-like roof work does not usually need planning permission, but if your property is listed or in a conservation area it is worth checking with Wandsworth Council before work starts, and we are happy to talk this through with you.

Common Questions About New Roofs in Putney
How long does a Victorian slate roof last in Putney?
Natural slate can last a very long time, but on many Victorian roofs the nails and battens give out before the slates do. Once nail fatigue sets in, slates slip regularly. We assess the whole roof and advise whether a new roof is needed or repairs will do.
Will you help me choose materials?
Yes. We advise on efficient options and up-to-date materials so the new roof suits your property and budget.
Is it better to repair or replace my roof?
If the problem is isolated, a repair is usually fine. When the roof is failing in several places, re-roofing can be cheaper over the longer term. We will give you an honest view.
How do I know if I need a new roof?
Repeated leaks, many slipped or broken tiles, sagging, daylight through the roof and failed felt or battens are all signs. If repairs keep adding up, a new roof is often better value.
How much does a new roof cost?
Costs depend on the size of the property, the area of roof and the materials. We visit, inspect the roof and give you pricing for the options available.
Can you re-roof flat roofs as well as pitched roofs?
Yes. We re-roof all types, from traditional tiled and slate roofs to flat roofs in GRP, felt or EPDM.
