Problems found before they leak
A lifted ridge tile or a split flashing is visible months before water reaches a ceiling, and it is far cheaper to deal with at that stage.
Roof Care Services
Roof Care and Maintenance Services
Cleaning, guttering, inspections and repairs that keep your roof in top condition and stop small faults becoming expensive ones.
Book a roof care surveyPrevention costs a fraction of an emergency
Roof Care Services covers the four things that keep a roof working between major jobs: inspections, cleaning, guttering and the roofline. K & M Roofing Solutions provides all four across South and West London, for homeowners, landlords, managing agents and commercial building owners.
The economics are the whole argument. A blocked gutter cleared on a routine visit costs very little. The same gutter left for two winters saturates the wall, rots the fascia behind it and ends up as a damp survey, a roofline replacement and internal redecoration. Almost every expensive roof job we are called out to began as something small and visible.
So the aim of this section is unglamorous: look at the roof regularly, clear what needs clearing, fix the small things while they are still small, and write down what we saw so you have a record. Everything below is built around that.
Planned visits are easiest to keep to where we are already working every week. Croydon is where the company is based and where a maintenance round costs least to run, which is covered on our page for roofing in Croydon, CR0.
Benefits
How roof care works with us
One visit, not four trades
Inspection, cleaning, guttering and roofline are handled by the same team on the same visit, so you are not booking and paying for four separate call-outs and four sets of access.
A photographic report every time
You get dated photographs and a written note of what we found and what we did, which builds a record of the building over time and satisfies most insurers and managing agents.
Visits you can plan for
Where a landlord or managing agent wants the roof looked at on a regular basis rather than only when something fails, the pattern of visits is something we can agree at the survey. It moves the roof into a budgeted line instead of an unplanned emergency spend.
What we offer
What roof care covers
Drone inspection
High-resolution aerial surveys of steep, tall and fragile roofs with no scaffolding or ladders, usually completed in minutes and reported back with imagery.

Moss, algae and lichen removed with the method matched to your tile type, followed by a biocide treatment that stops it coming straight back.
See roof cleaning and moss removalGuttering services
Clearing, repair, resizing and full replacement of gutters and downpipes, including correcting the falls that cause repeat overflows.
See our guttering servicesFascias and soffits
Repair and replacement of the roofline boards that carry your guttering and ventilate the loft, in uPVC that never needs painting.

The roof care year
- Early autumn: clear gutters and valleys before leaf fall begins
- Early autumn: check flashings and ridge before the wet season
- Late autumn: clear gutters again once the trees are bare
- Winter: check the loft for damp, daylight and condensation
- After any storm: look for slipped tiles and lifted ridge
- Spring: survey the whole roof for winter damage
- Spring: treat moss and algae while growth is still light
- Summer: dry weather for repairs, cleaning and roofline work
How it works
How a roof care visit works
1
Booking
You call or email, or we contact you if we have agreed to look at the property on a regular basis. Routine visits are booked for a time that suits you and whoever holds the keys.
2
Inspection
We survey the roof, flashings, gutters and roofline, from the ground, at height or by drone where access is difficult. Typically under an hour on a domestic property.
3
Clearing and small repairs
Gutters and valleys are cleared, and minor faults such as a slipped tile or a loose bracket are dealt with on the spot rather than quoted for separately.
4
Report with photographs
You receive dated photographs and a written note of what we found, what we did and what needs watching, usually within two working days.
5
Anything larger, quoted separately
If we find work beyond routine maintenance we itemise it with photographs so you can decide, and there is no obligation to have us do it.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Once a year for most London properties, plus a look after any major storm. Flat roofs are the exception and are worth checking twice, because they drain through a small number of outlets rather than off an open edge. Twice a year is worth it if the building sits under trees, has valley gutters between terraces or has had leaks before, because those are the roofs where debris builds up fastest. Commercial and industrial roofs with gutters between bays generally need two visits a year as a minimum.
We can, and it is how a lot of our landlord and managing agent customers prefer to work. What that looks like is agreed at the survey: how often you want us, what each visit covers, gutter clearing and inspection included, and a photographic report after each one so the building has a standing record. Costs are known in advance, which makes the roof a budgeted line rather than an emergency.
A full inspection of the roof covering, flashings, ridge, gutters, downpipes and roofline, clearing of gutters and valleys, and any minor faults put right while we are there. You then get a photographic report of what we found. Anything beyond routine maintenance is itemised and quoted separately, with no obligation.
Yes, and a large share of our roof care work is exactly that. We handle portfolios of residential lettings, blocks of flats and commercial buildings, work to whatever access and permit process the site requires, and provide the dated photographic records that agents and insurers ask for. Invoicing and scheduling are set up to suit managed property rather than one-off domestic jobs.
The survey itself is free, including a drone survey where the roof is too steep or too tall to walk safely. Routine maintenance visits with gutter clearing are priced by property size and access, and a planned schedule is generally cheaper per visit than one-off call-outs. Anything we find beyond routine maintenance is itemised separately so you can see what you are paying for, and a binding price from K & M Roofing Solutions always follows a free survey.
An active leak into an occupied room or a tenanted flat comes ahead of routine work in the diary. If water is coming in now, phone rather than email and we will tell you honestly when we can be there. Routine and planned visits are booked for a time agreed with you. We are based in Croydon and work across South, West and Central London.
