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 Stanmore, we conduct a full structural survey — checking rafters, purlins, wall plates and ridge boards for rot, woodworm and movement. Stanmore properties built in the Victorian and Edwardian era often have specific structural characteristics that affect the specification.
A typical re-roof in Stanmore 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 Stanmore using quality tiles and modern breathable membrane will last 50-60 years minimum. The key variable is specification — we choose materials that suit Stanmore's specific exposure conditions, not the cheapest option in the yard.

Harrow's hilltop position has shaped its roofing history for centuries. Harrow School, founded in 1572, sits atop one of London's highest points at 124 metres — and the roofs of its listed buildings have withstood four centuries of some of the most aggressive weather exposure in Greater London. The conservation area around the Hill contains Grade II listed buildings where original Welsh slate and handmade clay tile roofs demand specialist maintenance using period-appropriate materials and techniques.
Pinner's conservation area and village character drive property premiums that make roof maintenance an investment priority. Tudor and period properties on Pinner High Street and the surrounding conservation area require specialist roofing skills — lime mortar repointing, handmade peg tile sourcing, and lead detailing that matches the original specification. These are not jobs for general builders.
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 Stanmore roofer who turns up when they say they will.
