Roofing we actually do
Specialist EPDM flat roofing, plus the repairs Hornchurch houses actually need. Every service has its own page so you can see the work before you call.

EPDM flat roofing
A rubber membrane that does not split every summer. The flat-roof system we fit most, from garage roofs to full extensions.
See this service

Roof repairs
Find where the water is actually getting in, then fix that — not a new roof you do not need.
See this service

Tiling and slating
New coverings and careful repairs on the pitched roofs these streets were built with.
See this service

Leadwork
Code lead, dressed and pointed — the detail that actually keeps terraces and extensions dry.
See this service

Liquid roofing
A seamless coating for roofs that are a nightmare to sheet — upstands, pipes, and details a single membrane cannot hug.
See this service

Gutters, fascias and soffits
If the gutter is overflowing into the wall, the roof is not the thing that is leaking.
See this service

Roof surveys
A roof inspection with photos, before you buy or before you pay for the wrong repair.
See this service
Recent roofs, not stock photos
EPDM, lead and solar-roof details from jobs Rob has published — including the work on the RGS Facebook page.

We recently had roofing work done and were genuinely impressed. Rob handled everything professionally and efficiently, and his communication was clear and timely throughout.
Rob was amazing. A detailed quote was provided, and the times and dates were agreed and kept.
We have used Rob on a number of occasions. He is thorough, honest and a great guy to work with. He went out of his way to quickly fix broken tiles that were leaking into our bedroom. Always on time, a good communicator. 100% recommend.
Competitive quotation. Good communication, always keeping me informed, and he arrived as promised. New roof including boarding, new soffits, fascias and gutters, and all debris taken away. Looks fantastic.
Robert did an absolutely fantastic job on our roof. Top quality, reasonably priced, and a pleasure to deal with. If we have another roofing issue I will be calling Robert again.
Robert helped us with a repair to the lead flashing on our extension roof. Reliable, courteous, and a reasonable price. I would happily use him again.

Questions people ask
How quickly can you look at a leak in Hornchurch?
Call Rob or WhatsApp a photo. If water is coming in, we aim to get to Hornchurch, Romford and the immediate Havering streets as soon as the diary allows — often the same day or the next morning. A proper repair follows the temporary stop, not a tarp left for a month.
Do you replace old felt flat roofs with EPDM?
Yes. That is the job we are asked for most. Felt and asphalt crack, pond and let go at the edges. We strip back to a sound deck, replace rotten boarding, and lay a Firestone-style EPDM rubber membrane in as few pieces as the roof allows, with proper outlets, trims and upstands.
Which areas do you actually cover?
We are based at 93 Billet Lane, Hornchurch, and we work all over Essex as well as East London. The regular round is Hornchurch, Emerson Park, Romford, Gidea Park, Collier Row, Harold Hill, Elm Park, Rainham, Upminster, Cranham, Brentwood and Shenfield, plus Barking, Dagenham and Ilford. Chelmsford, Basildon, Southend, Billericay, Rayleigh, Grays and the rest of the county are on the books too. If your town is not named, send the postcode.
Will you work around solar panels?
Often, yes. A lot of our flat-roof photos are renewals between existing arrays. We detail the upstands, walks and outlets so the panels can stay, instead of paying to have them lifted off and put back for the sake of it.
Is the work guaranteed?
Workmanship is guaranteed, and EPDM systems carry a long manufacturer warranty — we confirm the exact cover on your written quote, rather than a vague promise. You get the price before we start, and that is the price, weather delays excepted and explained.
Do you only do full new roofs?
No. Slipped tiles, a split in the lead, a bay that drips, gutters pouring down the wall — those are most of the week. If a repair is the honest answer, that is what we quote.
How much does a new roof cost in Hornchurch?
There is no honest single price. A tiled re-roof, a slate roof and an EPDM flat roof are different jobs, and scaffolding, the deck and access change the number. The cost of a new roof in Essex is whatever is on the written quote after Rob has seen it. The look and the roof repair quote are free.
What does a flat roof replacement cost?
A garage roof on sound timber is a different price from an extension where the chipboard has gone soft. We strip failed felt rather than bury it, and the quote splits the deck, the EPDM rubber and the trims so you can see what you are paying for. Ask for a flat roof replacement cost on your postcode and you get a figure for your roof, not a price off a leaflet.
My roof is leaking. What should I do?
Put a bucket under it, photograph the stain and the outside if you can do that safely, and message Rob. Do not paint sealant over a split in a flat roof. It hides the fault and makes the proper roof leak repair harder. In Hornchurch we aim to look the same day or the next morning.
Can you do an emergency or same-day roof repair?
If water is coming through and you need an emergency roofer in Hornchurch, or a same-day roof repair, this is the straight version. We are open seven days, 7am to 6pm. We are not a 24 hour call centre that sends a stranger at 2am. A leak nearby, including storm damage, is often seen the same day when the diary allows. WhatsApp still lands if Rob is on a roof.
Are you the cheap roofers in Hornchurch?
No. A cheap quote that leaves a rotten deck under a new membrane costs more the second time. We are a family-run roofing company in Hornchurch, fully insured, and the price on the quote is the price you pay. If you want the lowest number on a leaflet, we are probably not it.
Where can I read roofer reviews in Hornchurch?
Google has 4.7 from 47 reviews and MyBuilder sits at 4.8 from 30. They are printed on this site as they were written, not rewritten. If Rob has been on your roof, leave one. It helps the next person looking for a local roofer in Hornchurch.
Got a roof that needs a decision?
Leak, old felt, a survey before you buy. Call Rob or send a WhatsApp — include the postcode and a photo if you have one.
