Roofing in Highgate, N6
Highgate sits at the top of the hill above our N19 base, with the village around Pond Square and Highgate High Street, and N6 running down towards Archway and across to Hampstead Heath.
Roofs here range from Georgian and early Victorian houses in the conservation area to large Edwardian family homes with steep clay tile roofs, decorative ridges and tall stacks. Height and exposure mean wind finds every loose slate and tile.
On listed and conservation-area houses the repair has to blend in. We match clay tiles and natural slate, keep decorative ridge and finial details, and use lead for flashings and valleys.
Highgate jobs we take on: slipped slate and tile repairs, chimney repointing and flashing, valley relining, new roofs in slate or clay, and moss removal on the shaded north-facing slopes.
