Services
Roof repairs from our team include tracing leaks, replacing broken or missing tiles and slates, and securing ridge tiles back into position. Patrick checks the affected area and provides photographs of the fault before disturbing the roof covering. Because water can move along rafters and battens, we look beyond the visible ceiling stain. Older roofs without a membrane may be particularly exposed when slates fall and leave gaps. 
A failing roof can require more than another patch, particularly when tiles have become porous, slates are slipping or dampness has affected the loft. Our approach begins with a free inspection and photographic evidence of the roof's condition. We explain whether replacement is appropriate and confirm the complete price in writing. Following removal of the existing covering, we inspect the timbers, install new membrane and battens, fit replacement tiles or slates, and leave the site tidy. 
We carry out flat roof repairs designed to resolve leaks at their source and prevent water from continuing to damage the roof structure. Our process involves inspecting the affected ceiling and roof details, identifying failed seams, flashings or drainage areas, and presenting photographs of the problem. We repair felt, EPDM and GRP coverings using suitable techniques and replace damaged decking when necessary. All costs are agreed beforehand, and payment follows completion. 
At Apex Roofing and Guttering, we replace existing roofs by stripping the covering back to the rafters rather than laying new materials over the old roof. This allows us to identify damaged timber and show you any necessary replacements before proceeding. We install a breathable membrane, treated battens and your selected roof covering, completing the ridge, hips and verges with a dry-fix system. Our quotations include all agreed work, and payment is made once the project is finished. 
Unexpected roof damage requires a prompt and practical response. We assess issues such as missing tiles, displaced ridge tiles, damaged chimneys and torn flat roof coverings, taking photographs to document the condition. Patrick examines the roof himself and confirms the cost before our team begins. Our priority is to prevent further water ingress, with payment due upon completion. 
We specialise in putting right roof damage, from cracked tiles and perished felt to loose ridges and repairs that have not been completed properly. Age and adverse weather can gradually weaken a roof, while earlier workmanship may leave existing problems unresolved. Patrick documents the damage with photographs, explains its cause and agrees the price before work commences. 
We supply and fit replacement uPVC gutters and downpipes in three profiles: half-round, square and ogee. Each project includes an initial assessment of the fascia boards, precise measurements and photographs of any issues that need addressing before installation. Once the design and price have been agreed, our team removes the existing guttering, installs the new components and water-tests every run. We also take away the old materials and provide a 10-year guarantee, with longer cover available up to 20 years depending on the job. 
We offer a straightforward service for repairing chimney stacks affected by damaged mortar, loose fittings or leaking roof junctions. After accessing the stack safely, Patrick photographs the flaunching, pots, brickwork and flashing, allowing you to understand the condition of the chimney. Our repairs include rebuilding mortar caps, refixing pots, installing cowls, repointing joints and renewing lead flashing. We agree the full price beforehand, remove the resulting waste and request payment only when the job is complete. 
We offer a professional slate roof repair and replacement service for Victorian homes in Croydon and Streatham, using natural slate or slate-effect materials. Over time, roofing slates may slip out of position, develop cracks or leak at the valleys. Older roofs can also show signs of failed nails through displaced slates and repeated metal patches. We accept payment on completion, after installation and site cleaning. 
Our work includes replacing concrete interlocking roofs on 1930s semi-detached properties and repairing traditional clay plain tiles. When ageing concrete tiles start absorbing water, we can assess their condition through a roof survey and provide a written quote free of charge, with no obligation to proceed. The loss of the surface coating exposes the sand, encourages moss growth and increases weight, while freezing conditions can split porous tiles. 
We install Firestone RubberCover EPDM roofing as a single continuous sheet across most domestic flat roofs, eliminating joints that can become vulnerable to leaks. Its flexibility allows it to withstand both freezing conditions and summer heat. Every installation includes a 10-year guarantee, with cover extending up to 20 years depending on the project. 
Our fibreglass roofing installations are suited to flat roofs with awkward corners, pipes, rooflights and raised edges where vulnerable joints can cause problems. GRP moulds around these features to create a continuous covering rather than separate sections. We install the prepared deck, saturate the glass mat with resin and seal the cured laminate with a coloured topcoat, producing a robust surface. 
Our torch-on felt roofing system, completed with a mineral cap sheet, is designed for extensions, garages and dormers. We make the condition of your existing roof clear by providing photographs first, with Patrick pointing out each split before you commit. As felt deteriorates through exposure to sunlight and frost, cracks develop, and broken blisters can let rainwater through to the roof deck. 
We provide a straightforward approach to replacing failing fascias and soffits, with clear assessments and agreed costs. Patrick examines the boards around your home and photographs any softened timber so you can understand the extent of the damage. Once you approve the quotation, our team removes the old materials, repairs rotten rafter ends where necessary, installs uPVC boards with appropriate ventilation and returns the guttering to its position on new brackets. 
Our approach to lead flashing repairs begins with a thorough visual assessment of the existing installation. Patrick takes photographs of split or lifted sections, including the back gutter behind the chimney, and explains what needs attention. If the lead remains sound but the pointing has deteriorated, we make this clear. Where renewal is required, we install code 4 lead and finish the joints securely. 
Protecting brickwork starts with sound mortar joints. At Apex, we repoint chimney stacks and brick walls by removing worn mortar and filling the joints with fresh material to match the surrounding brickwork. This helps prevent rainwater from entering the gaps. We bring over three decades of experience to every job, offer free quotations from photographs and provide guarantees lasting 10 to 20 years, depending on the work. 
When your gutters leak, overflow or become detached, we provide practical repairs tailored to the problem. Our inspection covers the entire run, allowing us to identify deteriorated unions, cracked lengths, displaced brackets and other faults. We send photographs so you can see the damage before authorising any work. The price is agreed beforehand, and payment is due only when the repair is complete. 
We provide thorough gutter cleaning, clearing debris from all gutter runs at the front and rear of your property. Leaves, moss and silt are collected and removed rather than discarded into your garden. Our service also includes unblocking outlets, flushing downpipes and sealing leaking joints. We photograph the gutters before and after, helping you verify the completed work. 
We undertake essential repairs to roofs damaged by strong winds, ensuring exposed areas are protected from rain before permanent work begins. Missing tiles, lifted ridge sections, detached flashing and torn felt coverings are assessed and repaired as necessary. We supply photographs showing the extent of the damage, including less visible areas, to assist with insurance records, and confirm the repair price in writing before starting. 
With more than 400 completed projects behind us, we offer dry ridge and dry verge installations in Croydon to replace failing mortar around roof ridges and gable ends. Cracked bedding can leave tiles loose, allowing strong winds to dislodge them, while gaps may admit rainwater. We use screwed and clipped systems and provide photographs of the damaged mortar through Patrick before any work is agreed. People
