Roofing Services in Wimbledon
Our roofing services in Wimbledon are designed to cover everything from smaller repair jobs to larger replacement and improvement projects. We work on houses, flats, terraces, extensions, conversions, and commercial buildings, adapting our approach to suit the roof type and structure involved. Some customers need urgent help with leaks or storm damage, while others need planned work to improve an ageing roof. By offering a complete service, we help customers deal with roofing issues before they lead to more serious internal or structural problems.
Roof Repairs for Leaks and Damage
Wimbledon repairs depend heavily on which side of the hill the property is. Village roofs are older, often handmade tile, and need conservation-minded work; the Edwardian terraces below are more robust and more forgiving of a conventional repair.
Flat Roofing for Extensions and Garages
Flat roofing in SW19 is mostly rear extensions and dormers. On Village properties within the conservation area we keep flat areas out of sight and use lead where it is visible, because a modern membrane on a prominent flat roof will draw objection.
Slate & Tile Roofing for Pitched Roofs
The Village uses handmade clay tile and older slate laid to shallower pitches; the town's Edwardian terraces use standard slate with decorative banding. Matching the right covering to the right property is the difference between a roof that looks original and one that does not.
Chimneys & Leadwork
Wimbledon has a lot of original stacks, and on the Village properties the lead detail around them is often the oldest part of the roof. We rebuild to the existing profile and reuse sound lead where we can rather than simplifying the detail.
Facias, Soffits & Guttering
The Edwardian terraces below the Village have decorative bargeboards and bay roofs that are usually the first thing to rot, and they are visible from the street. We renew them to match rather than fitting a plain modern replacement.
Brickwork Repair, Brick Repointing and Rendering Repair
Brickwork repair and repointing in SW19 covers everything from soft handmade brick in the Village, which needs lime, to harder Edwardian brick down the hill. We match the mortar to the wall rather than using one mix across the borough.
New Roofs & Re-Roofs
A recovering in Wimbledon is specified around the property's age and its conservation status. In the Village that means matched handmade tile and rebuilt lead; on the Edwardian terraces a conventional strip, repair and recover in matching slate.
Painting & Decorating and Building Work
We also provide painting, decorating and general building work, letting a full elevation be restored in one programme rather than a roof job now and render and paint later.
Roofing and Building Work for Wimbledon Properties
Wimbledon includes a wide range of property styles, from period homes and terraces to flats, modern developments, extensions, and commercial premises. That means roofing services in Wimbledon often need to be adapted to the structure, age, and layout of the building rather than handled in the same way every time. We work across Wimbledon and nearby areas such as Wimbledon Village, South Wimbledon, Raynes Park, Merton, and Colliers Wood, providing practical solutions for different roof types and property requirements. Some buildings need roof repairs or flat roofing work, while others need chimney repairs, brickwork repair, rendering repair, or broader building work to restore the exterior properly. Our experience across roofing services helps us recommend work that suits the building and the issues involved.
Our Services in Wimbledon
Keeping the roof, brickwork and decoration together means one specification and one scaffold. In the Village, where the conservation position governs materials across all three, that consistency is worth more than the saving from splitting the trades.

Why Choose LRC Group Roofing & Building Ltd
In Wimbledon the question is whether a roofer will match the covering properly. Village roofs use handmade tile and older slate at shallow pitches; the Edwardian terraces use standard slate with decorative detail. Using the wrong one is visible from the street and, in the conservation area, will not pass.
FAQs
Q: How do I know if I need roof repairs or a new roof?
A: On the Edwardian terraces a localised fault is a repair and a generally failing slope is a recovering. On Village property we look at the whole roof first, because the older tile is more fragile and partial work can loosen more than it fixes.
Q: Can brickwork and rendering be repaired alongside the roofing?
A: Yes, matching the mortar to the wall. The soft handmade brick in the Village needs lime; the harder Edwardian brick down the hill is more forgiving. We do not use one mix across the whole borough.
Q: What types of properties do you work on in Wimbledon?
A: We work on period Village property, Edwardian terraces, flats and commercial premises across SW19, including Wimbledon Village, Wimbledon Park, South Wimbledon and Raynes Park.

Roofing in Wimbledon: Village period property and town terraces
Wimbledon divides cleanly. The Village has Georgian and early Victorian property, much of it in the conservation area, built with handmade tile and natural slate and needing matched materials and careful detailing. The streets down the hill towards the town are solid Edwardian terraces with more decorative roof detail and a different set of problems.
On the Village properties the work is conservation-led: matching the existing covering, rebuilding lead to the original profile, and keeping the roofline as it was. On the Edwardian terraces it is more often valley gutters, slipped tiles, chimney stacks and the bay roofs that were never built to last as long as the main roof.
We cover SW19 including the Village, Wimbledon Park, South Wimbledon and Raynes Park. Where a property sits in the conservation area we confirm the position before specifying, because it determines the materials and the price.
