New Roofs & Re-Roofing Forest Hill – Crown Roofers

Looking at a new roof in Forest Hill? Roofers Forest Hill by Crown Roofers strips and re-roofs Victorian terraces, dormer conversions and extensions across SE23 and SE26 in slate and tile – specified in writing, detailed properly and guaranteed.

A worn-out roof costs you more than a bucket on the landing. Heat escapes through it, damp sits in the roof space, and timbers, insulation and plaster quietly deteriorate underneath.

We re-roof terraces, semis, flats above shops, dormer conversions and extensions right across Forest Hill. Every job takes in stripping the old covering, repairing what the survey finds in the structure, new breathable membrane, treated battens, new leadwork and ventilation to current standards. Not ready for all that yet? Our repair service often buys a roof several more years.

When a roof starts needing attention every year – classic nail sickness on original slate, or a run of patches laid over older patches – replacing it usually beats paying for repairs indefinitely. A great many roofs here went on with no membrane underneath at all, so a re-roof tends to improve warmth and ventilation as much as it stops water.

We re-roof in natural slate, fibre cement slate and tile, matching the slope and colour of the terrace, and we handle butterfly valleys and parapet gutters as part of the work. If your street falls inside a Lewisham conservation area, we will raise anything that may need consent before a scaffold goes up.

The systems we work in:

Everything goes on to current standards, with ventilation, dry ridge and verge systems and leadwork dressed correctly.
