Roofing in Croydon, CR0

Homes and roofs in Croydon

Croydon covers a lot of ground, and a roofer in Croydon works on a wide range of roofs: interwar semis with hipped tiled roofs in Addiscombe and Shirley, Victorian terraces in South Norwood and Thornton Heath, flats and commercial buildings around the town centre, and plenty of bungalows and extensions in between.

Where we work in Croydon

We cover central Croydon, Addiscombe, Shirley, South Norwood, Thornton Heath, Selhurst and the streets towards Purley and Sanderstead. Croydon is one of the CR postcode areas we serve from our south London base. Tell us the type of property and which part of the roof is affected.

Common roof problems in Croydon

Interwar tiled roofs often reach a point where the original concrete tiles are porous and the underlay has failed, making a re-roof better value than repeated repairs. Hip and ridge mortar breaks up, and bay roofs and porches develop leaks at their lead. On flat-roofed extensions and garages, split felt and blocked outlets are frequent causes of damp.

Bays, porches and garages

Croydon's interwar houses often have tiled bay roofs, small porch roofs and flat-roofed garages. These small roofs are easy to forget until they leak, usually where the lead meets the wall or where the felt has split. We repair and replace them as part of our roof repairs and flat roofing work.

Fascias and soffits on Croydon semis

Original timber fascias and soffits on many Croydon semis have long since rotted or been capped over. We remove the old boards, check the rafter ends and fit new uPVC fascias, vented soffits and gutters. See our fascias and soffits page for how the work is done.

Roof repairs across Croydon

Not every roof needs replacing. A cracked tile, a loose hip, a failed lead flashing at a chimney or a blocked valley can all be put right with a focused repair, and on many Croydon houses that is exactly what is needed. We find the cause, show you what we found and repair it with matched materials. Where the whole roof is near the end of its life, we tell you straight and quote both options so you can choose. Our roof repairs page explains how we work, from tracing the leak to clearing up afterwards.

Emergency help after a storm

When wind lifts tiles from a Croydon roof, call us. We make the roof safe, replace what has been lost and check the rest of the slope for loosened tiles before we leave. Our emergency roof repairs page explains what to do while you wait.
