Roof repairs fix specific faults in a pitched or flat roof, such as slipped or cracked tiles, loose ridges, failed flashing, leaking valleys or chimney defects, to stop water getting in without replacing the whole roof.
Anyone planning roof repairs in Feltham wants three things: a clear price, a realistic timetable and a tidy job. We publish a guide of £400–£1,950 including VAT for London up front, explain that work normally takes Half a day to 3 days for most repairs, and confirm both in writing after a free survey of your property.

Local housing and roof repairs
London's housing is dominated by Victorian and Edwardian terraces, often in yellow London stock brick, with Georgian terraces in central districts and mansion blocks across many inner areas. Outer boroughs have large belts of interwar semis, and there are extensive post-war council estates. Many houses have been split into flats, and conservation areas are widespread.
Terraces suit side-return extensions and rear dormer loft conversions; interwar semis commonly take hip-to-gable lofts. Shared party walls, restricted parking and conservation rules often shape the plans and the programme.
For roof repairs in Feltham, this means checking things like wall construction, roof structure and existing services before we put a figure on paper.
Do you need permission in Feltham?
Because Feltham falls under England's rules, the guidance below is the version relevant to you. Before sending a price, we check your property's position with the council.
Re-roofing a house with similar materials does not usually need planning permission in England. Listed buildings and conservation areas may need consent if the covering changes.
Replacing more than a quarter of a roof’s covering counts as renovation under Building Regulations, so the work is notified and the roof insulation may need upgrading. Bats are protected across the UK; if they roost under roof tiles, soffits or fascias, work stops and a licensed ecologist advises before it restarts.
Rules change and every property is different, so we check the planning history and constraints for your address before we quote.
The four stages
Free site survey
A free survey comes first. It gives us what we need to price roof repairs properly, including dimensions, existing materials and access for deliveries, and gives you the chance to ask anything you like.
Price and scope agreed
Next you receive a written quote with a fixed price for the agreed specification. It lists what is included, what is not, and how payments are staged, so you can compare it properly.
Plan and prepare
We handle the paperwork side: checking whether planning permission or building control approval is needed, submitting applications where they are, and scheduling the trades and materials around your dates.
On site to finish
Work goes ahead as scheduled and you deal with one contact throughout. When the last trade leaves, we clear and clean the site, talk you through what has been done and pass on any certificates and care instructions.
Why homeowners choose us
Common questions
Will my home insurance pay for the repair?
Home insurance policies often cover sudden storm damage but usually exclude wear and tear or gradual deterioration. If you think the damage is storm-related, contact your insurer before repairs, apart from urgent temporary work, and take photos. We can provide a written report and photographs describing the damage and cause to help with your claim. The insurer decides what is covered.
Do I need scaffolding for a roof repair?
Not every roof repair needs scaffolding. Small repairs on low roofs can often be done safely from ladders and roof ladders, and towers suit some chimney and gable work. Repairs on two-storey roofs, steep slopes, chimneys or large areas usually need scaffolding for safe working, which adds cost. We choose the safest practical access and include it in the written quote.
What happens at the survey?
We visit your home at a time that suits you, look at the area involved, take measurements and check access, condition and any services that might be affected. We talk through what you want from roof repairs, explain the options and answer questions. There is no charge and no obligation; afterwards we send a written quote.
What is dry-fix ridge and is it better than mortar?
Dry-fix ridge systems use screws, clips and weather seals instead of mortar to hold ridge and hip tiles in place. They avoid the cracking and loosening that mortar suffers over time, need less upkeep and are now common on new roofs. Mortar-bedded ridges suit some period or conservation-area roofs. We recommend the method that suits your roof and its location.
Do I need planning permission in Feltham?
It depends on the work, the size of the project, your property type and whether the building is listed or in a conservation area. Feltham is in England, so England's rules apply. Many smaller jobs need no planning application, but some still need building control approval. We check what applies to your address before quoting.
