When repair is no longer economic, a full roof replacement gives your home another 40-60 years of weatherproof protection. We strip back to the rafters, inspect and replace any damaged timbers, install new felt, battens and tiles to current Building Regulations, and leave you with a roof built to last.
Before any re-roof in Chiswick, we conduct a full structural survey — checking rafters, purlins, wall plates and ridge boards for rot, woodworm and movement. Chiswick properties built in the Victorian and Edwardian era often have specific structural characteristics that affect the specification.
A typical re-roof in Chiswick takes 3-7 days depending on size and complexity. Day one: scaffold erection and strip. Day two: timber inspection, replacement and felting. Days three to five: battening and tiling. Final day: ridge, hip and lead detailing. We work rain or shine — once the old covering is off, we do not leave your roof exposed overnight.
A properly specified and installed roof in Chiswick using quality tiles and modern breathable membrane will last 50-60 years minimum. The key variable is specification — we choose materials that suit Chiswick's specific exposure conditions, not the cheapest option in the yard.
Georgian and early Victorian properties along Chiswick Mall and Strand-on-the-Green. Edwardian terraces on Devonshire Road and surrounding streets. 1930s semis in Grove Park. Multiple conservation areas restrict roofing materials to period-appropriate specifications. For roof replacement work in Chiswick, this housing profile means we commonly encounter Conservation area material matching — replacement tiles and slates must match originals, adding 30-60% to costs.

The streets of Chiswick — including Chiswick High Road, Devonshire Road, Strand-on-the-Green — have roofing characteristics that reflect their construction era and the specific exposure conditions of Hounslow. Hounslow's proximity to the Thames creates localised humidity issues, particularly in Chiswick, Brentford and Isleworth where riverside properties face accelerated moss growth and lead oxidation. The

Hounslow's roofing story is shaped by two forces: the Thames and Heathrow. Riverside properties in Chiswick, Brentford and Isleworth have roofing challenges driven by humidity, flood risk and the specific material requirements of their conservation areas. Properties further west in Hounslow, Heston and Feltham face the unique environmental stress of the Heathrow flight path — sustained low-frequency vibration from aircraft on approach that gradually loosens mortar joints and ridge fixings.
The Thames corridor through Hounslow creates a microclimate that makes seasonal roof maintenance essential. Winter humidity promotes moss and algae growth that is noticeably worse on north-facing pitches near the river than on equivalent roofs just a mile inland. Autumn gutter clearance is critical — the mature plane trees along Chiswick High Road, Strand-on-the-Green and Brentford High Street produce enormous volumes of leaf debris that can block an entire gutter run in a single week.
Chiswick and Brentford have seen significant property price growth, with many Victorian and Edwardian houses now valued above £1 million. In conservation areas covering much of Chiswick and Old Isleworth, roofing materials must match originals — a requirement that adds 30-60% to costs but protects both the streetscape and your property's premium value.
A full roof replacement is a significant project and we treat it accordingly. The process begins with a thorough structural survey — not just looking at the tiles, but inspecting rafters, purlins, wall plates and ridge boards for rot, woodworm and structural movement. We then specify the complete system: breathable membrane, treated battens, tile or slate covering, ridge and hip detailing, lead flashings and ventilation. You receive a fully itemised quote breaking down every component so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
The tile or slate you choose affects both the appearance and the longevity of your new roof. Concrete interlocking tiles are the most cost-effective option and suit most post-war and modern properties. Plain concrete tiles give a more traditional appearance at moderate additional cost. Clay tiles offer premium aesthetics and 60-80 year lifespans. Natural slate is the highest specification — a Welsh slate roof will outlast the building beneath it. We present all options with realistic prices so you can make an informed choice.
Every full roof replacement carries our 10-year workmanship guarantee covering both materials and labour. This is a written, transferable guarantee — if you sell the property within 10 years, the guarantee passes to the new owner. Tile and slate manufacturers provide separate product guarantees of 15-30 years depending on the material chosen. Your new roof is protected for decades.
No call-out fees. No obligation. Just an honest quote from a local Chiswick roofer who turns up when they say they will.
