The leadwork photos on this site are these streets: parapet copings, cement that has cracked out, bay windows, and a neighbour’s roof two feet away. East London terraces leak at the party wall, the back gutter and the front bay, not in the middle of the tiles. We dress new lead, renew small flat roofs, and stop water before it becomes a ceiling.
Wanstead is already on the reviews — Nick called the communication and the repair excellent. Dagenham and Barking are the same construction, the same drive from Billet Lane. Ilford and the Redbridge side are on the round when the diary allows; ask rather than assuming we stop at the boundary sign.
Access is usually the awkward part: terraces, no side alley, scaffold on the pavement. We price that in, we do not discover it on the day and add it as a surprise.

Work we do in East London
- EPDM flat roofingA rubber membrane that does not split every summer. The flat-roof system we fit most, from garage roofs to full extensions.
- Roof repairsFind where the water is actually getting in, then fix that — not a new roof you do not need.
- Tiling and slatingNew coverings and careful repairs on the pitched roofs these streets were built with.
- LeadworkCode lead, dressed and pointed — the detail that actually keeps terraces and extensions dry.
- Liquid roofingA seamless coating for roofs that are a nightmare to sheet — upstands, pipes, and details a single membrane cannot hug.
- Gutters, fascias and soffitsIf the gutter is overflowing into the wall, the roof is not the thing that is leaking.
- Roof surveysA straight report before you buy, or before you spend money on the wrong repair.
