Signs You Need Emergency Repair Now
Pitched roofs fail gradually — these are the signals worth acting on before a leak develops.
Slipped or missing tiles
Missing tiles expose the underlay and battens beneath, letting water in fast during the next rainfall.
Storm or wind damage
High winds can lift and crack multiple tiles at once, needing urgent cover to stop water getting in.
Exposed felt or timber
Once the underlay or timber decking is visible, the roof needs covering the same day, not next week.
Active leak into the loft
Water tracking into the loft space through the tiles means the repair can't wait for a routine booking slot.
Repaired First, Then Matched to the Right Material
Slate, clay and concrete each have genuine trade-offs on cost, character and lifespan — and good leadwork is what actually keeps the roof watertight at every junction. Your surveyor recommends a system based on your property, not the highest-margin option.
Natural Slate
Natural stone tiles with a classic, refined finish — the standard choice for period and listed London properties. Higher upfront cost, but exceptionally long-lasting with very low maintenance.
Clay Tile
Fired clay tiles in warm terracotta and red tones, common across Victorian and Edwardian London terraces. Breathable, characterful, and a strong balance of durability and appearance.
Concrete Tile
The most widely used roofing tile in the UK, available in a wide range of colours and profiles including slate-effect options. More affordable than slate or clay, still durable and low-maintenance.
Lead Flashing
Not a tile system, but essential detailing work — lead is used at valleys, dormers and chimney junctions where most pitched roof leaks actually start. Malleable, extremely long-lasting, and often the difference between a roof that leaks and one that doesn't.

What London Homeowners Say
Islington · Slate Roof, Period Terrace
“Victorian terrace in a conservation area, so slate wasn’t optional — but the team knew exactly what the council would want to see. New roof looks like it’s always been there.”
Bromley · Concrete Tile Re-Roof
“Went with concrete tiles over clay to keep costs sensible and honestly can’t tell the difference from the ground. Full re-roof done in four days, scaffolding included in the price as quoted.”
Richmond · Lead Flashing Repair
“Had a persistent leak around the chimney that two other roofers had ‘fixed’ twice already. Turned out to be failed lead flashing — properly replaced this time, dry ever since.”

Emergency Pitched Roofing, Answered
It depends on your property and budget — slate suits period and listed buildings and lasts the longest, clay tile matches most Victorian and Edwardian terraces, and concrete tile offers the most affordable, durable option for the widest range of properties. Your surveyor will recommend honestly based on what your property actually needs.
Most like-for-like replacements don't need planning permission. If your property is listed or in a conservation area, the council may require you to match the existing material — usually slate or clay rather than concrete. We'll flag this during your free survey.
In most cases, yes. We source matching or closely comparable tiles for partial repairs so the patched area doesn't stand out. For older or reclaimed tile profiles, your surveyor will confirm availability before quoting.
Most pitched roof leaks start at junctions — chimneys, valleys, dormers — not the tiled surface itself. Lead is the industry standard for these details because it's durable and flexible enough to move with the building. Cutting corners here is one of the most common causes of recurring leaks.
Most single-property re-roofs take 3–7 working days depending on size, roof pitch and weather. Your surveyor gives you an exact programme before work starts.
