New Roofs and Re-Roofing in Tooting
Tooting is dominated by Victorian and Edwardian terraced streets, plus the early 20th-century Totterdown Fields cottage estate. Many homes have rear extensions and loft dormers, so flat roofs, valley gutters and chimney stacks are where problems most often appear.
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 will come out, inspect the roof and give you pricing for each option, with costs depending on the size of the property and the area of roof. For a free quote on a new roof in Tooting, call 07467 757 367.

Local New Roofs Specialists in Tooting
Re-roofing a Victorian or Edwardian terrace is a big decision, and most Tooting homeowners only make it once. Original slates can last a long time, but once nails corrode and slates start slipping across the whole roof, repairs become a cycle that never quite ends.
We carry out complete re-roofing of both pitched and flat roofs. That often means stripping the main roof alongside renewing the flat roof on a rear extension, so the whole house is sorted in one go. We can advise on whether a patch repair is still economical, and on efficient options such as adding insulation while the roof is open. Every new roof starts with a site visit and a quote, as the cost depends on the size and type of roof. We offer the same in Streatham and Wandsworth.
Our Staines head office is about 15 miles from Tooting, and we regularly work on homes and businesses across the area. Most like-for-like roof work does not 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 Tooting
Can you re-roof my Tooting terrace and its rear extension together?
Yes, and it often makes sense to do both at once. We can strip and re-cover the main pitched roof and renew the flat roof on the extension in the same project. After a site visit we provide a quote based on the size and type of each roof.
Do I need planning permission for a new roof?
Like-for-like re-roofing does not usually need planning permission, but listed buildings, conservation areas and changes to the roof shape or materials may need consent from your council.
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.
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.
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.
