Approved Roofing London Ltd are Experts in all aspects of Roofing in London
It's not really a mystery. Rain, wind, the odd surprise storm — London throws all of it at your roof, year after year, and eventually the tiles, felt and flashing start to give up. Moss doesn't help either. It sits there quietly holding water against the surface, and long before you'd ever see a stain on your ceiling, that trapped damp is already working its way into the timber underneath and rotting it out.
A proper look at a roof means checking every tile, every corner — not just glancing at the spot where the leak showed up inside. Honestly, the roofs that end up costing homeowners the most are usually the ones that got a cheap, rushed fix the first time round.

A few things worth taking seriously if you spot them:
None of these mean panic — but they do mean it's worth getting checked. Left alone, small problems have a funny way of turning into expensive ones.
This is probably the question we get asked most, and honestly, there's no one-size-fits-all answer — it depends on the roof. We'll always be straight with you about which one actually makes sense, because talking someone into a full replacement they don't need (or the other way round) helps nobody in the long run.
| Situation | Roof Repair | New Roof |
|---|---|---|
| Roof Age | Under 20 years | Over 25 years |
| Damage Spread | One area | Several areas |
| Typical Cost | Lower, one-off | Higher, but stops repeat repairs |
| Best Fit | Storm damage, leaks, loose tiles | Old, worn-out, or unsafe roofs |
Not everything needs a specialist. A blocked gutter can probably wait until the weekend. But storm damage, or anything that involves someone working at height, is a different conversation entirely — and it's genuinely worth checking a contractor's insurance and trade body membership before you let them anywhere near your roof.
We've been doing this across London for over 20 years now. It's a family-run business, fully insured, and we're vetted through Approved Roofers and the Roofing Register — not just self-declared, actually checked. Every job we finish comes with a guarantee, and if a storm hits at 2am, our 24-hour emergency line is genuinely answered.
Twenty years is long enough that there isn't much London weather can do to a roof that we haven't already seen and fixed. That's not a sales line — it's just what tends to make the difference between a quick, accurate job and one full of surprises halfway through.
Every quote's free. No pressure, no hard sell.
Ealing, Acton, Chiswick, Hammersmith, Brentford, and the streets in between. We're based near Ealing Broadway station, about 20 minutes from central London by car, so if you're local, you'll usually get us out a lot quicker than a contractor coming from the other side of the city.
Three things, really, and we'd say the same if we weren't the ones you were hiring: a clear price before anyone picks up a tool, proof they're properly insured, and an actual guarantee once the job's done. Skip any one of those and you're the one left holding the risk if something goes wrong later. Every quote we put together is built around exactly those three things.
Honestly, it depends entirely on the job — a single tile is a small job, a full roof is not. The only way to know your actual number is a free quote, which we're happy to give upfront with nothing hidden in it later.
Small jobs are usually done and dusted in a day. Bigger work — a proper re-roof, say — can run two to five days depending on size and weather.
Rough rule of thumb: under 20 years old with one leak, a repair should do it. Over 25 years old with damage spread around, you're probably looking at a new roof.
Yes, fully, for all repair and replacement work.
Yes — our 24-hour line covers sudden leaks, storm damage, and anything that looks structurally dodgy.
Ealing, Acton, Chiswick, Hammersmith, Brentford, and the wider West London area around them.
More than people expect. It holds moisture right against the tiles or slates, which speeds up wear and, over time, can let water get underneath the roof covering itself.
