Roofers in Enfield for terraces, semis and flat extensions

Enfield's roofs change as you travel north from the North Circular. Palmers Green and Bowes Park are long streets of Edwardian terraces, many with slate or red clay roofs, decorative ridge tiles and chimney stacks shared between pairs of houses. Bush Hill Park was laid out as a planned estate around its station and keeps its Edwardian character, with a conservation area protecting much of it. Winchmore Hill, Southgate, Oakwood and Grange Park are mostly inter-war semis and detached houses with hipped plain tile roofs, many built as the Piccadilly line pushed out to Cockfosters in the 1930s. East of the A10, Edmonton, Ponders End and Enfield Highway mix older terraces with post-war council housing and later estates roofed in concrete interlocking tiles.

Those inter-war roofs are now around ninety years old, and it shows. Plain tiles lose their nibs and slip, the bedding under the hip and ridge tiles turns to sand, and the original felt beneath has torn or crumbled, so wind-driven rain gets in at the eaves. On the Edwardian terraces the chimney is the first suspect: open joints, cracked flaunching, or a lead flashing that has lifted where the stack meets the slope. Rear extensions and garages across the borough carry flat roofs laid in felt decades ago, and a ponding, blistered felt roof will not be saved by another coat of paint. We repair tiles and slates, rebuild and repoint stacks, dress new lead, lay EPDM and GRP flat roofs and fit new fascias, soffits and gutters.

Ring 07429 820474 or send the form with a line about what you have noticed and roughly where in Enfield you are. Thomas comes out free of charge, gets up to look, checks the loft and explains in plain English what is wrong and what it will take to fix. You get a fixed written price, and that price does not move once we start. In Bush Hill Park and the borough's other conservation areas we keep to the original materials and go through any consent questions with you first. The family that quotes the job is the family on the roof. Homeowners, landlords and small businesses use us, every new re-roof carries a 10 year guarantee, and we answer the phone Monday to Saturday, 8am to 6pm.
