New Roofs, Tiling & Slating
Ilford’s homes range from Edwardian terraces and 1930s semis to loft-converted houses and modern flats. With such a
A wide mix of styles, picking the right roof tile is key for both look and durability.
We install all types of roof tiles used throughout the area. Clay, concrete, natural slate, man-made slate, plain tiles, composite roofs, and interlocking tiles.
- Clay and concrete tiles suit the many 1930s houses in Ilford. Reliable protection with a period-appropriate style.
- Natural slate is a great choice for Edwardian terraces in places like Seven Kings and Redbridge. A classic tile that lasts decades.
- Interlocking tiles and man-made slate are common in loft conversions and modern extensions. Providing a neat, low-maintenance finish.
- For flat-roof parts found on terraces and commercial-style homes, we fit EDPM, GRP fibreglass, Torch-on felt, PVC, TPO and more. All provide full waterproofing and a long life.
Every new roof is built with the right airflow, insulation, and ridge detail to keep it strong and leak-free.
Our tiles and materials come from trusted UK suppliers.

- Flashing and leadwork repairs
- Ridge and verge repairs

- Emergency storm-damage repairs
We offer flat roofing as well…
Flat Roofs
Flat roofs are widespread across Ilford. Fitting perfectly on loft conversions, terraced house extensions, porches, garages, and modern flats.
Flat Roofs are cost-effective, maximise internal space, and make it easy to add skylights or roof lanterns.
We offer several flat roofing options:
- Three-layer felt roofing: Great for older terraces and 1930s homes. A reliable, budget-friendly material for extensions, porches, and garages.
- Torch-on felt roofing: Perfectly suited to both homes and small commercial-style buildings. Provides a tougher, heat-bonded finish.
- GRP fibreglass roofing: Ideal for modern kitchen extensions, loft conversions, and new-builds. A sleek, seamless, long-lasting surface.
- EPDM rubber roofing: Perfect for modern homes and large flat areas. Flexible, low-maintenance, and long-lasting
Every flat roof is fitted with drainage falls (to prevent leaks and standing water), insulation, and neat edge details.
We also do leadwork and flashing to keep your home completely watertight…
Leadwork & Flashing
Ilford’s Edwardian terraces, 1930s homes, and modern extensions all rely on lead flashing to seal the junctions where roofs meet walls, chimneys, and dormers.
We provide full leadwork and flashing services, which cover:
- Chimney flashings and aprons
- Lead soakers and step flashings
- Lead valleys for pitched roof joins
- Dormer and parapet covers
- Weathering details for extensions
Older terraces in Seven Kings and Redbridge often need new chimney flashings or reshaped valleys.
Loft conversions often include step flashings and dormer covers for watertight safety.
We use milled lead sheet to BS EN 12588 for steady quality and thickness.
All work is fitted using LSA-approved methods with room for thermal movement.
Our Ilford Roofers fit leadwork which shields your home and enhances your roof’s appearance. And it will last for decades.
Moving down to the roofline…
Fascias, Soffits & Guttering
Many homes in Ilford, from Edwardian terraces to 1930s semis and modern townhouses, have ageing rooflines. Some struggle with leaks, rot, and weak airflow.
We fit uPVC fascias, soffits, guttering, and downpipes. Modern uPVC systems are highly resistant to pollution and colour change. Making them ideal for built-up areas like Ilford.
Terraces in Seven Kings and Redbridge benefit from better soffit airflow, which reduces damp in loft spaces.
New builds and loft conversions often require deeper gutters to handle increased water flow, especially with modern flat roof materials such as GRP and EPDM.
We shape the roofline to match your home’s look and ensure proper drainage.
We also fix or replace sagging gutters, leaking joints, and cracked boards.
A new roofline will give your home a fresh look and help protect it from long-term water damage.
Next, let’s look at how our services can transform your indoor spaces…
Roof Windows & Skylights
Loft-converted homes, Victorian houses, and modern extensions can all benefit from roof windows and skylights. A great way to naturally brighten dark spaces.
We install Velux windows, flat-roof skylights, roof lanterns, and sun tunnels. Many designs and colours are available to match your home’s style.
- Velux Roof Windows: Perfect for loft-converted terraces and Victorian/Edwardian homes. Like those in Cranbrook, Barkingside, and the older streets around Coventry Road. Deep layouts and loft rooms benefit from top-down daylight.
- Flat-Roof Skylights: A great match for 1930s semis and modern rear extensions found across Gants Hill and Clayhall. Open-plan kitchens and single-storey extensions get brighter, more even overhead lighting.
- Roof Lanterns: Ideal for larger extensions and renovated period properties. Typical in neighbourhoods such as Newbury Park and the wider Ilford area. Roof lanterns flood living spaces with natural light.
- Sun Tunnels: Ideal for internal bathrooms, hallways, and landings. Common in compact terraces and older semis around the town centre, Cranbrook, and Barkingside. Bringing daylight into areas that windows can’t reach.
We use approved flashing kits, insulation collars, and seals. Ensuring every window is watertight.
