What kind of roofs are in Stanmore?
Old Church Lane and Stanmore Hill keep Georgian and Victorian buildings with slate and clay tiles. Large Edwardian and interwar detached homes on Stanmore Hill and around Stanmore Common have steep plain tile roofs and tall chimneys. Interwar semis cover much of the rest, and many larger houses have been rebuilt or extended with flat roofs.

What we see in Stanmore
What typically goes wrong with Stanmore roofs?
Exposure on the hill
Homes high on Stanmore Hill catch the wind, loosening ridges, verges and older plain tiles.
Large flat roofs
Rebuilt and extended houses have big flat roofs that fail at edges and outlets.
Chimney stacks
Tall stacks on Edwardian houses lose flaunching and lead, letting water into chimney breasts.

Roof repairs in Stanmore
In Stanmore we repair wind-damaged ridges and verges on the hill, plain tile roofs on large detached homes, chimney leadwork, and flat roofs on extensions and rebuilds.
Roof cleaning and moss removal in Stanmore
Woodland around Stanmore Common shades many roofs, so moss builds up. We clean by hand and soft wash with biocide, never pressure washing.
Gutter cleaning in Stanmore
Tree-lined roads fill gutters quickly. Flat roof outlets also block, leaving water sitting on the roof.
