PITCHED TILING, SLATING & WARM ROOFS ACROSS UXBRIDGE UB8–UB10
Stretching from the detached Arts and Crafts residences of North Uxbridge, Swakeleys Road, and the Gatehill Estate across Ickenham, Hillingdon Village, and the contemporary family developments of St Andrew’s Park on the historic Battle of Britain RAF Uxbridge site to the canal-side cottages of Denham, Harefield, and Uxbridge Common (UB8, UB9, and UB10), pitched roofs in the London Borough of Hillingdon feature steep, multi-gabled Rosemary clay plain tiles, Redland interlocking concrete tiles, and natural quarry slates. Exposed to damp Colne Valley mists, frost heave off the Chiltern Hills fringe, and heavy oak and hornbeam leaf-fall from Mad Bess Wood and Hillingdon Court Park, pitched roofs across UB8, UB9, and UB10 suffer from blocked valley troughs, frost-spalled clay tiles, and perished bitumen underfelt. Operating as an NFRC-accredited roofer London and Middlesex homeowners trust, London Roofing Specialist deploys directly employed tilers, slaters, and leadsmiths to carry out complete pitched roof replacements and structural timber overhauls.
Rafter Structural Appraisals, Celotex PIR Insulation & Breather Membranes
As documented in our pitched re-roofing photography, stripping an Uxbridge roof back to the bare C24 rafters allows our team to inspect the structural timber frame, hip blades, purlins, and wall plates before upgrading the thermal envelope. We fit rigid Celotex polyisocyanurate (PIR) insulation boards between and over the rafters, dress a high-tensile vapour-permeable breather membrane across the roof plane, and secure graded BS 5534 treated timber counter-battens and tiling battens.
REDLAND TILING, HANDMADE CLAY & CHIMNEY LEADWORK IN UB8–UB10
Whether we are re-tiling a 1930s semi-detached residence off Long Lane in Hillingdon, restoring a period cottage roof near St Margaret’s Church or the Old Uxbridge Conservation Area, or renewing a detached gable roof in Harefield, we match every tile profile, slate gauge, and lead flashing detail to the exact architectural character and wind-exposure rating of your property, working alongside our flat roofer Uxbridge team where steep pitched slopes meet flat rear extensions, loft dormers, and garage decks.
Redland & Rosemary Clay Plain Tiling
Machine-made and handmade clay plain tiles, Redland profiled concrete interlocking tiles, bonnet hips, and ornamental tile-hung gables fixed with stainless-steel clips and non-ferrous nails across Ickenham, Hillingdon, and Cowley.
Natural Welsh & Spanish Quarry Slating
Hand-sorted, copper-nailed blue-grey natural slates laid to exact headlap gauges for Victorian and Edwardian villas around Uxbridge Common, Vine Street, and Whitehall Road.
Code 5 & Code 6 Chimney & Valley Leadwork
As shown in our chimney and ridge photography, our leadsmiths dress hand-bossed Code 5 stepped lead flashings, secret side soakers, chimney back-gutters, and wide open lead valley troughs to BS EN 12588.
Celotex Warm Rafter & Loft Insulation
High-density rigid PIR thermal boards paired with continuous eaves-to-ridge ventilation pathways to eliminate cold bridging and meet Building Regulations Part L targets.

Replacing cracked sand-and-cement mortar beds with storm-proof stainless-steel mechanical fasteners and ventilated roll-out ridge membranes.

Why do tiled roofs around Ickenham, Hillingdon Village, and Uxbridge Common leak along the valleys and chimneys?
Homes bordering Hillingdon Court Park, Swakeleys Park, and the wooded Colne Valley sit beneath mature oak, beech, and willow canopies. Autumn leaves and moss wash down the clay and concrete tile courses and pack tightly into narrow mortar-pointed valleys and aged zinc chimney gutters, damming rainwater until it backs up over the battens into the loft. As shown in our project photography, we strip out perished valley mortar and dress wide, open Code 5 rolled lead valley troughs and stepped chimney flashings so leaves and heavy downpours clear effortlessly.
Can you upgrade our loft and rafter insulation with Celotex boards while re-tiling our Uxbridge roof?
Yes. Stripping the old clay or concrete tiles and perished bitumen felt back to the bare rafters is the most cost-effective stage to install rigid Celotex PIR thermal insulation boards between and over the rafters—satisfying London Borough of Hillingdon Part L Building Control without losing headroom inside your upper bedrooms or loft conversion.
