Tower Hamlets London Roof Replacement and Installation

N.H.R.B.S. is a family-run roofing company with 36+ years of experience serving Tower Hamlets — from Bethnal Green and Bow to Spitalfields, Poplar and Canary Wharf. We replace and repair roofs on the borough's full range of buildings: Georgian and Victorian houses, warehouse conversions, estates and modern commercial properties.

Tower Hamlets has one of London's most varied building stocks, which means an equally varied range of roofs — pitched slate and tile, flat felt and asphalt, and extensive leadwork. We work on all of them, and we'll advise honestly whether repair or replacement is the right call for your roof.

Tower Hamlets brings together Victorian terraces and former warehouses with substantial modern developments around Canary Wharf and the Isle of Dogs, giving the borough an unusually wide range of roof types. Period homes are typically pitched with slate or tile, while converted warehouses and newer apartment blocks often feature flat roofs.

For pitched roofs we recommend Welsh slate, with Code 5 lead the standard for valleys, chimneys and parapet detailing. The flat roofs common on the borough's commercial and modern residential stock are well served by EPDM, felt and mastic asphalt, and breathable insulation such as TLX Gold suits both old and new buildings.

We replace and repair every common London roof type, choosing materials to suit the building: slate and clay tiles for period homes, durable felt, asphalt or single-ply membranes for flat roofs, and lead for the flashings, valleys and parapets that keep water out of the junctions.

Our Tower Hamlets roofing services cover:

Much of Tower Hamlets' roof work is on flat roofs — above shops and offices, on converted warehouses and on estate blocks. Flat roofs only perform when the falls, details and coverings are right, so we prepare the surface properly and use systems with a proven lifespan.

For commercial and institutional buildings we work to tighter schedules and keep disruption to occupants to a minimum, while maintaining the same quality standards as on domestic work.

All new roofs and full replacements come with a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee, independent of our trading status, plus a Building Control compliance certificate for qualifying work.

Small roofing problems become big ones when left: leaks rot timber, damage ceilings and undermine decoration. We'll tell you what your roof actually needs, without unnecessary upselling, and carry out the work to a standard that lasts.

We offer professional home buyer roof surveys across Tower Hamlets, carried out up close by experienced roofers. Whether you're buying a Georgian house in Spitalfields or a conversion in Docklands, a survey before exchange tells you what the roof will really cost you.
