At Apex Roofing and Guttering Ltd, we have built our roofing service around a simple principle: homeowners should see the problem before committing to a repair. Serving Croydon and the surrounding south London area, we bring more than 30 years of practical experience to roof maintenance, replacement projects and associated exterior services. Our team handles traditional slate and tiled roofs, storm damage, flat roofing, guttering, chimneys and waterproofing, providing a coordinated service under Patrick's supervision. From replacing an entire roof to repairing a leaking gutter joint, we assess each situation before recommending the necessary work. Homeowners can request a free, obligation-free inspection and quotation by calling 020 8138 0918.
Rather than asking customers to rely solely on a verbal assessment, Patrick photographs the fault and explains what needs attention before the price is agreed. Where useful, he also provides video evidence, allowing you to make an informed decision without guesswork. We establish the cost beforehand, apply no hidden or unexpected fees, and accept payment when the agreed work has been completed. Our services include felt, EPDM rubber and GRP fibreglass flat roofs, chimney repointing, leadwork, gutter cleaning and replacement, as well as roof waterproofing. Every project is approached with attention to workmanship and site cleanliness, including the removal of waste. We are fully insured and offer a 10-year guarantee, potentially extending to 20 years according to the work undertaken. With over 400 projects completed and a 5.0 rating across 30 Google reviews, we provide an experienced and transparent roofing service.

Services
We aim to identify the cause of roof leaks before carrying out the necessary repair work. Patrick inspects the roof, records the fault in photographs and shows you the evidence before a tile is touched. Our work includes repairing leaks, replacing tiles and slates, and refixing ridges. Water can travel beneath the roof covering before reaching a ceiling, while missing slates may leave battens exposed to rainfall. 
At Apex Roofing and Guttering Ltd, we provide professional roof replacement services for properties with coverings that have reached the end of their useful life. Patrick carries out a free inspection, photographs the roof and loft, and explains whether replacement is necessary. Before work begins, we provide a written fixed-price quotation with no hidden fees. Payment is due upon completion, and guarantees range from 10 to 20 years depending on the job. 
Our service addresses common flat roof faults, from split felt overlaps and lifted EPDM seams to cracked GRP coverings and deteriorated flashings. We begin by checking where the water appears indoors, then examine the roof and its fittings to pinpoint the source. Where moisture has damaged the decking, we remove and replace the affected sections. You receive a clear price in advance and settle payment once the roof is watertight. 
We offer a complete roofing replacement service for properties with coverings that have deteriorated through age or repeated exposure to the elements. Signs such as persistent winter leaks, crumbling tiles, loose slates and daylight visible from the loft can indicate that a new roof is required. We assess the roof thoroughly, explain our findings with photographs and provide one upfront price. The completed installation is backed by a guarantee lasting 10 years or up to 20 years, depending on the project. 
Storms can dislodge roof tiles, damage chimneys and expose vulnerable roofing materials, allowing rain to enter your home. We provide emergency repairs designed to address these problems and limit further damage. Patrick assesses the roof himself, documenting its condition with photographs before explaining the required work. Once the price has been agreed, our team begins the repair, with payment requested only after completion. 
We repair roof damage caused by ageing, weather exposure and previous poor-quality workmanship. Our work includes replacing cracked tiles, addressing deteriorated roofing felt and securing loose ridges. Patrick photographs the affected areas, explains the cause of the damage and agrees the price with you before any repairs begin, ensuring you understand the work required. 
Our new guttering service includes the removal of old gutters and downpipes, followed by the installation of a suitable uPVC replacement. We offer half-round, square and ogee designs to complement different property styles. Before work begins, we assess the fascia boards, measure each run and confirm the price. All installations are water-tested and covered by a guarantee of at least 10 years. 
We undertake chimney repairs to address visible deterioration and hidden faults that may cause damp inside your property. Warning signs include missing mortar caps, rocking pots, damaged cowls, eroded brick joints and staining around the chimney breast. Patrick photographs the stack at close range, explains the source of the problem and confirms the repair cost before work starts. All agreed work is paid for on completion. 
At Apex, we repair ageing slate roofs and replace them where necessary on Victorian terraces and villas in Croydon and Streatham. Our options include traditional natural slate and slate-effect materials. Slates sitting below neighbouring pieces can signal failed nail fixings, while widespread lead or copper strips may suggest repeated repairs. We address slate roofing problems with payment due after the job is complete and the site has been cleaned. 
We provide solutions for deteriorating tiled roofs, including concrete interlocking replacements for 1930s semis and repairs to clay plain tile coverings. Where concrete tiles have become porous, our approach begins with a roof survey, after which we issue a free written quotation without obligation. As their coating erodes, tiles absorb water and accumulate moss, becoming heavier and increasingly vulnerable to cracking when frost penetrates them. 
At Apex, we use Firestone RubberCover EPDM to create a continuous, joint-free covering for most domestic flat roofs. Its resistance to ultraviolet rays and ability to remain flexible through frost and heat make it a practical alternative to ageing felt. We assess the existing roof before recommending the appropriate work, agree the full price in advance and provide a 10-year guarantee, with up to 20 years depending on the installation. 
We install GRP fibreglass roofing to create a durable, seamless surface for flat roofs, extensions and dormers. Patrick assesses the existing roof, photographs the relevant areas and agrees a fixed price before work begins, with no hidden charges. Using resin, glass mat and a coloured topcoat, we provide a hard-wearing finish, with payment due on completion. 
Our felt roofing service uses torch-on felt finished with a mineral cap sheet, suitable for extensions, garages and dormers. We provide photographs of the roof before you commit to any work, with Patrick highlighting each split. Over time, sunlight and frost can dry out felt, creating cracks that admit water, while damaged blisters can expose the underlying deck to rainfall. 
Protecting your roofline starts with identifying the early signs of timber failure. Peeling paint, soft boards, loose gutters, water staining, pests entering the eaves and dipping roof tiles can indicate deteriorating fascias or soffits. We inspect the affected areas and photograph any rotten sections before agreeing the work with you. Our team removes damaged boards, repairs defective rafter ends, installs uPVC replacements and refits the guttering securely. 
We offer lead flashing renewal for roof areas affected by cracked folds, loose edges or persistent leaks beside chimneys. Before proceeding, Patrick photographs the existing work and identifies whether the problem lies with the lead itself or the mortar securing it. When replacement is needed, we fit new code 4 lead, secure it into the brick joints, seal the upper edges and ensure the adjacent tiles are checked and re-bedded. 
Maintaining the mortar between bricks is essential when it starts to deteriorate, as damaged joints can allow rainwater to collect and penetrate the gaps. At Apex, we repoint chimney stacks and brick walls by raking out the old material and replacing it with fresh mortar matched to the brickwork. We have more than 30 years of experience, offer free photo-based quotations and guarantee our work for 10 years, or up to 20 depending on the job. 
Our gutter repair service covers a wide range of problems, including damaged sections, loose brackets, failed seals and gutters pulling away from the fascia. We examine the complete run to identify the source of the leak and any related issues, sharing photographs before agreeing on the work. Every repair is priced in advance, and you pay only after completion and a successful water test. 
Keeping your gutters clear helps rainwater drain correctly and reduces the risk of overflow. We remove accumulated leaves, moss and silt from every gutter run, taking the waste away in bags. Each downpipe and swan neck is checked and flushed until water runs freely. Where joints drip, we clean and dry the affected areas before applying a suitable seal. 
Storms can leave roofing materials displaced and create openings through which rainwater enters your property, so we prioritise making the roof watertight. Our repair work addresses damaged tiles and slates, insecure ridges and hips, peeled-back lead flashing and compromised flat roof felt. We document our findings with photographs, provide a written price for the complete repair in advance and collect payment once the work is finished. 
We install dry ridge and dry verge systems in Croydon, replacing deteriorating mortar with secure, screwed and clipped fittings. Before any work is agreed, Patrick provides photographs showing the existing cracked bedding, allowing you to understand the problem. With more than 400 projects completed, we bring substantial practical experience to this essential roofing service. People
