Roofers in Hounslow.
Hounslow’s homes are mostly practical interwar and post-war semis and terraces, spread across Heston, Cranford, Isleworth and Feltham, close to Heathrow. Plenty are now at the age where fascias, gutters, ridges and flat-roofed extensions all want attention. We help you sort out what matters first, with a clear written price for the job.

Fascias, soffits and gutters on interwar and post-war homes
Timber fascias on homes of this age have often been painted many times and are soft behind the paint. Once they go, gutters sag, joints leak and water runs down the walls. Replacing the full roofline in uPVC deals with all of it at once, though if the timber is sound and only the gutter has dropped, a realignment may be all you need.
- New uPVC fascias and soffits
- Gutters and downpipes supplied and fitted
- Vented soffits to help loft ventilation
- A choice of white, black, grey and woodgrain
Tiles and ridges near the flight paths
Wind is the usual cause of loose tiles and ridges, and old mortar is the usual weak point. Close under the Heathrow approaches, wake turbulence from low aircraft has also been known to disturb roof tiles. Whatever moved them, the fix is the same: refix or replace what has slipped, and fix ridges mechanically so they hold.
- Slipped, cracked and missing tiles replaced
- Dry ridge and dry hip in place of crumbling mortar
- Dry verge on gable ends
- Storm damage made good
Flat roofs on extensions, garages and bays
Rear extensions and garages are common across Hounslow, and many still have older felt coverings. Standing water, blistering and soft spots are the signs to look for. Small splits on a sound deck can be repaired, but if the deck has gone soft a new multi-layer felt roof is the right call.
- Split and blister repairs
- New torch-on felt roofs
- New decking and insulation where needed
- Edge trims and upstands renewed

Common questions
Can aircraft really move roof tiles?
It can happen on homes close under the approach paths, though wind and failed mortar are much more common causes. We can’t always say what moved a tile, but we can refix it and show you photos of the damage.
Should I replace my fascias or just the gutters?
If the timber behind the gutter is sound, new gutters on their own can be fine. If it is soft, new gutters will have nothing firm to fix to, so replacing the fascias at the same time is the better job.
What colours can I choose for a uPVC roofline?
We fit white, black, grey and woodgrain. White suits most brick semis, while black or grey can look sharper with darker windows. Your choice can also be matched across fascias, soffits and bargeboards.
Why does my extension roof pond after rain?
Usually the falls are too shallow or the deck has sagged. A little water that clears quickly isn’t a crisis, but water that sits for days speeds up wear on the felt, so it is worth having a look.
