Nobody wants to be faced with the cost of having to have their roof replaced, but when your roof is no longer fit for purpose and there is no option but to have a new roof installed, choosing the right roofing contractor to carry out the work is essential.
Your roof is arguably the most important part of your property, protecting it from everything that the weather can throw at it. That’s why it’s vital to have your roof professionally installed by experienced and trusted roofers.

We offer an insurance-backed guarantee on all our work and we never sub contract, we use our own team of experienced roofers to carry out roofing work throughout London, Berkshire and Surrey.
We not only work to the highest standards but we take customer service seriously too. We will keep you informed of progress throughout the project and will strive to minimise any disruption to you and your family during the work. We can also offer professional advice on the best roofing materials to match your needs and budget. For example, concrete tiles are among the most common on houses in the UK as they are cost-effective. Clay tiles are also popular for aesthetic reasons. Both have a lifespan of around 60 years. Natural slate however, can extend the life of your roof to 100 years or more.
With changing weather patterns due to climate change, it’s important to ensure that your roof is able to meet the challenges that this brings. There is no doubt that storm events are becoming more frequent so your roof, especially if you live in an older property, is going to be under increasing pressure and more susceptible to damage from high winds and driving rain.
Local Roofing Consultants Ltd ensure that we are fully acquainted with the latest roofing systems and developments including those that help to secure your roof against damage from storms such as dry ridge, dry verge systems.
Traditionally, ridge tiles are secured in place with mortar cement. Over time however, mortar deteriorates leading to ridge tiles becoming loose. The dry ridge system uses fixings to secure the ridge tiles in place and the dry verge systems used in conjunction with it keep the tiles at the sides of the roof securely held in place rather like a frame around your roof.
