Roofers in Petts Wood

Petts Wood is right on our doorstep — a well-kept commuter suburb of largely 1930s "Metroland" housing. Much of it has distinctive tiled roofs and generous eaves. Because we've worked here for years, it's an area we know street by street. Since so many properties here share the same roofline design, we can often spot developing problems early, before they turn into a leak.

Those interwar tiled roofs are now reaching an age where slipped tiles, tired felt and worn flashings are common. Many original fascias and gutters are also due for replacement. As a result, we handle repairs, re-roofs and flat roofing on extensions. We also fit new uPVC roofline, often as a single job.

Being only a couple of miles from our Orpington base means fast response and no big travel charges. As a result, every Petts Wood job comes with a free survey. It also comes with a fixed quote and a guarantee. While the survey itself only takes an hour or so, it gives us everything we need to put together an accurate, fixed price.

Builders used the same designs around the same time on so many Petts Wood roofs. Because of that, we can usually recognise the likely cause of a problem before we've even climbed a ladder. That familiarity helps us give you a realistic idea of scope on the phone, ahead of the survey itself. For what to check first, see our roof warning-signs guide.

Flat roofing on rear extensions is common across Petts Wood, and ageing felt is one of the most frequent issues we're called out to look at. Specifically, blistering, ponding and perished edges are usually the first signs a flat roof needs attention, and catching them early usually means a cheaper repair.
