Why Choose a New Roof?
Investing in a new roof is one of the most significant home improvement decisions you can make. A high-quality new roof doesn't just enhance your property's appearance—it provides critical protection and offers numerous benefits:
Enhanced Property Protection
A new roof provides superior protection against North London's changeable weather conditions. Modern roofing systems offer improved waterproofing, better wind resistance, and more effective barriers against environmental damage, keeping your property safe and secure.
Increased Energy Efficiency
Today's roofing systems incorporate advanced insulation and ventilation features that significantly improve your home's thermal performance. A new roof can reduce heat loss in winter and prevent heat gain in summer, potentially leading to substantial savings on your energy bills.
Improved Property Value
A new roof is one of the most valuable home improvements in terms of return on investment. It can increase your property's market value by 5-10% and dramatically improve curb appeal, making your home more attractive to potential buyers if you decide to sell.
Long-Term Cost Savings
While a new roof represents a significant initial investment, it eliminates the ongoing costs of frequent repairs and potential interior damage from leaks. With warranties typically spanning 20-50 years depending on materials, a new roof provides long-term financial security.
Types of New Roofs We Install
Natural Slate Roofing
Natural slate offers unmatched beauty and durability, with a lifespan of 100+ years when properly installed. Each slate has unique character and provides exceptional weather protection, fire resistance, and adds significant value to North London properties. We source the finest Welsh, Spanish, and Canadian slates for outstanding results.
Clay & Concrete Tiles
Clay and concrete tiles offer versatility and excellent value. Clay tiles develop a beautiful patina over time and last 60-80 years, while concrete tiles provide similar aesthetics at a lower cost with a 50+ year lifespan. Both options come in various profiles and colors to complement any architectural style in North London.
EPDM Rubber Roofing
For flat roofs, EPDM rubber membrane provides superior performance with exceptional weatherproofing, UV resistance, and flexibility. This single-piece application eliminates seams where leaks typically occur, offering 20-30 years of reliable service. It's particularly suitable for garden rooms, extensions, and garages across North London properties.
GRP Fiberglass Roofing
GRP fiberglass creates a completely seamless, highly durable flat roof surface with excellent resistance to water, frost, and UV damage. Its lightweight yet strong characteristics make it ideal for most flat roof applications, providing 25+ years of performance with minimal maintenance requirements.

What Our Customers Say
"Berkley Roofing installed a beautiful new slate roof on our Victorian terrace in Islington. The team was professional throughout, and the quality of workmanship is exceptional. They maintained a tidy site and completed the work on schedule. Five years later, it still looks fantastic and we've had no issues whatsoever."
James Thompson
Islington, North London
"After getting several quotes for a complete roof replacement, we chose Berkley based on their reputation and detailed proposal. They replaced our old, leaking tile roof with a new slate one, improving the insulation in the process. The difference in our home's temperature regulation is remarkable, and the roof looks stunning. Highly recommended."
Sarah Mitchell
Hampstead, North London
"We needed a new EPDM flat roof for our kitchen extension and Berkley Roofing provided an excellent service from start to finish. Their team was knowledgeable, efficient, and clearly took pride in their work. The new roof has transformed what was previously a problem area of our home. Great value for quality work."

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to install a new roof?
The timeframe for a new roof installation varies depending on the size, complexity, and type of roof. For an average residential property, slate or tile roofing typically takes 7-14 days to complete, while flat roofing systems can be installed in 3-5 days. More complex projects or larger properties may take longer. We always provide a detailed timeline during our initial consultation and work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily life.
How much does a new roof cost in North London?
The cost of a new roof in North London depends on several factors including the size, pitch, accessibility, materials chosen, and any additional requirements such as insulation upgrades or structural repairs. Slate and tile roofs typically range from £6,000-£12,000 for an average property, while flat roof systems generally cost £3,000-£7,000. We provide detailed, no-obligation quotes following a thorough roof survey, ensuring there are no hidden costs or surprises.
Do I need planning permission for a new roof in North London?
In most cases, replacing your roof with similar materials doesn't require planning permission as it falls under permitted development. However, if you're making significant changes to the height, shape, or appearance of your roof, or if your property is in a conservation area, is a listed building, or subject to an Article 4 Direction, you may need planning permission. Our team can advise on planning requirements for your specific property and assist with the application process if needed.
What materials do you recommend for new roofs in North London?
For pitched roofs in North London, we often recommend high-quality slate (either natural or fiber cement) and clay tiles, which offer excellent durability and weather resistance while complementing the local architectural styles. For flat roofs, we typically suggest EPDM rubber or GRP fibreglass systems, which provide superior waterproofing and longevity compared to traditional felt. The best choice depends on your specific property, budget, and aesthetic preferences, which we'll discuss during our consultation.
Do you offer warranties on new roof installations?
Yes, all our new roof installations come with comprehensive warranties. We provide a workmanship guarantee on all new roofs, covering any issues arising from the installation process. Additionally, the materials we use come with manufacturer warranties ranging from 20-50 years depending on the type. EPDM rubber systems typically carry 20-25 year warranties, while slate roofs can be guaranteed for up to 50 years. We provide full documentation of all warranties upon completion of your project.
Will a new roof improve my property's energy efficiency?
Yes, installing a new roof presents an excellent opportunity to improve your property's energy efficiency. Modern roofing systems incorporate better insulation and ventilation, which can significantly reduce heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. During the installation process, we can add or upgrade insulation materials, install proper ventilation systems, and use reflective underlayments to enhance thermal performance. These improvements can lead to noticeable reductions in energy bills and a more comfortable living environment.
