Covering Edmonton
Edmonton sits 9 miles north of London, with Tottenham 2 miles to the south and Enfield 2 miles to the north-west.
Homes in London
London projects often mean working on period terraces with neighbours on both sides, tight access through the house and conservation area controls, so careful planning and party wall work matter as much as the build.
What goes into re-roofing?
Re-roofing means stripping a pitched roof back to the rafters and replacing the membrane, battens, tiles or slates, ridge and flashings. It is needed when a roof covering reaches the end of its life, and it is the right time to improve loft insulation.
- Strip old covering and check timbers
- New tiles or slates, ridge and verge
- Fascias, soffits and guttering if required

What approvals does re-roofing need in England?
In England we deal with the council’s planning team for permission or a lawful development certificate, with building control (the council or a registered building control approver) for inspections, and with neighbours under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996 where it applies.
Replacing a roof covering like for like does not usually need planning permission in England.
What can change the price or programme?
- Neighbouring roofs on semis and terraces need careful junction details.
- Bats can roost in roofs; if signs are found, work pauses for advice.
What happens after I enquire?

- Survey at your house. We look at the existing structure, services and access, and agree what the design needs to achieve.
