ROOFERS Palmers Green
Slate and tile roofing across Palmers Green

OUR PROCESS
How we run a Palmers Green roofing job
Many Palmers Green terraces share chimney stacks with the neighbour, which is slow on a ladder; here is how a typical N13 roofing job runs from drone inspection through to scaffold-down.
Inspection by ladder or drone
Palmers Green terraces have shared chimney stacks. A drone scan gives clear photos before any quote lands.
Written quote with materials named
Slate or tile, underlay grade, ventilation route and lead spec all named. Fixed price.
Scheduled with a weather window
Scaffold and skip permits with Enfield Council are arranged in advance.
PROPERTIES WE WORK ON
Property types we look after in Palmers Green
Palmers Green roofs split into three groups. Edwardian terraces dominate, with slate or clay tile pitched roofs, original lead detail and bay window flat roofs over the fronts. Victorian terraces toward Bowes Park carry slate-dominant pitched roofs with similar lead detail. The outer edges toward Winchmore Hill and Bounds Green carry 1930s tile roofs with original underlay and tired lead. Each ages in its own predictable way.

EXPERTISE
Slate and tile work on Palmers Green Edwardian and Victorian roofs
Palmers Green’s Edwardian terraces were built with Welsh slate or clay tile on a pitched roof, original lead at the chimneys and bay window flat roofs over the front bay. Most are now reaching the 110 to 120 year mark and the original fixings, underlay and lead are typically at end of life.
When we re-roof a Palmers Green Edwardian terrace we strip in sections, sort the original slate or tile carefully and reuse what is sound, blend reclaim where partial replacement is appropriate, fit breathable underlay on new battens, install eaves and ridge ventilation, and hand-form lead at the chimney back, abutments and bay roof upstand.
Victorian terraces toward Bowes Park follow the same broad pattern with slate dominant. See chimney repair for the related stack work.
