We diagnose before we price
Every quote follows a survey that establishes why the roof is failing, because a price given without knowing the cause is a guess.

Roofing Solutions covers the three roof types K & M Roofing Solutions installs, repairs and refurbishes across South and West London: flat, pitched and metal. Whichever one you have, the same team surveys it, prices it, carries out the work and signs it off, so no part of the job is handed to a subcontractor halfway through.
Most people arrive here knowing something is wrong rather than knowing what they need. That is the point of this page: work out which roof you have from the section below, then read the page that covers it. If you are still not sure, send us a photograph and we will tell you.
Whatever the roof, the approach is the same. We find out why it is failing before we price anything, we repair rather than replace where the structure allows it, and every completed job is finished to current building regulations and backed by a 10-year workmanship guarantee.
Benefits
How we approach a roof
Repair first where we can
If the deck and structure are sound we say so and repair, rather than treating every leak as a reason to sell you a new roof.
System matched to the building
The specification comes from the roof in front of us, its age, use and access, rather than from whichever system we happen to fit most often.
One team, survey to sign-off
The people who survey your roof are the people who work on it and hand it back, so nothing is lost between trades.
What we offer
Which roof do you have?
You can usually tell from the ground in under a minute. Find yours below and follow the link for how we repair, refurbish and replace it.
Flat roof
You cannot see it from the street, and it sits over a rear extension, a garage, a dormer or a whole commercial block. The surface is felt, rubber, fibreglass or a liquid finish rather than tiles, and water tends to sit on it after heavy rain.
See flat roof repair and waterproofingPitched roof
It slopes, you can see it from the pavement, and it is covered in natural slate or clay or concrete tiles with a ridge running along the top. This is the standard roof on Victorian and Edwardian terraces across South and West London.
See pitched roof repair and re-roofingMetal roof
The surface is profiled sheeting or standing seam panels with visible ribs running down the slope, usually on an industrial unit, warehouse, retail shed or a modern extension. Rust at the fixings and along the sheet laps is the usual first sign of trouble.

Specialist systems we are known for
Two things sit alongside the three roof types above: the waterproofing system we are certified to apply, and the commercial and industrial work it is mostly used on.
Liquid applied waterproofing
ETA-23/0735A cold-applied system that cures into one seamless waterproof layer over your existing roof, with no strip-off and no hot works. It is certified to ETA-23/0735, manufactured by HYDRONYLON LTD, and K & M Roofing Solutions is a certified applicator, which is a combination very few London roofers can offer.

Occupied buildingsWarehouses, offices, retail units, apartment blocks and schools, refurbished while the building carries on operating underneath. No strip-out, no hot works permit, and working hours arranged around the site where it needs it.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
If it slopes and you can see slate or tiles from the street it is a pitched roof; if you cannot see it from the ground and it sits over an extension or a commercial block it is a flat roof; if it is ribbed metal sheeting it is a metal roof. Those three cover almost every building in South and West London. If you are still unsure, send us a photograph and we will tell you which page applies and what it is likely to need.
Both. K & M Roofing Solutions works for homeowners and landlords on terraces, extensions and garages, and for managing agents and facilities managers on offices, retail units, apartment blocks and industrial roofs. The survey, the reporting and the 10-year workmanship guarantee are the same whichever you are.
Repair, if the structure underneath is sound and the problem is localised. A flat roof with a dry deck can usually be sealed rather than stripped, and a pitched roof with sound timbers often needs slates and flashings rather than a full re-roof. Replacement makes sense when the deck or timbers have gone, or when repairs have stopped holding. The survey tells you which of those you are looking at, and we will say so plainly.
An active leak into an occupied room 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 rather than booking a slot we cannot hold. Routine surveys are booked for a time we agree with you. We are based in Croydon and work across South, West and Central London.
Every completed job carries a 10-year workmanship guarantee, issued in writing when we sign the work off. Flat and metal roofs finished with HYDRONYLON also carry a separate 10-year product guarantee issued by HYDRONYLON LTD, which covers the system itself and stands independently of us.
Yes. Re-roofing, replacing a flat roof deck and upgrading insulation are notifiable under Building Regulations Part L, and we handle the notification and sign-off as part of the job. Most roof repairs and replacements are permitted development and need no planning application, but conservation areas and Article 4 directions can change that, and we will tell you at survey stage if your property is affected.
