Professional Wimbledon Flat Roofing Solutions
Wimbledon has a real mix of properties. From large Victorian and Edwardian houses on the hill near the village to 1930s semis and modern new builds closer to the station and town centre. A lot of these homes have extensions, garages or outbuildings with flat roofs that need proper attention.
We cover all of it. New installs, repairs and full replacements. Whether your flat roof is leaking, showing cracks or just getting old, we can sort it.
What Our Wimbledon Flat Roofing Experts Do
Flat roofing covers any roof with a low pitch, usually on extensions, garages, outbuildings or commercial buildings. In Wimbledon a large number of properties have at least one flat roof area, especially on rear extensions which are very common throughout SW19.
A flat roof does not slope like a pitched roof so it needs proper drainage, the right fall and a watertight membrane to stop water sitting and getting in.

Why Invest in Wimbledon Flat Roofing Services
A flat roof that is leaking or wearing out will not fix itself. Water gets into the timber, causes damp inside the house and leads to bigger repair bills. The longer you leave it the worse it gets.
A lot of the extensions on the streets around Wimbledon Village, the town centre and South Wimbledon were built decades ago. The roofs on those extensions are often coming to the end of their life.
Getting it sorted now is cheaper than dealing with structural damage later. A properly installed flat roof will last 20 years or more.
We are rated 9.91 out of 10 on Checkatrade. We turn up when we say, we tell you what the roof actually needs and we do not push work that does not need doing.
