Homes and roofs in Acton
Acton has Edwardian terraces in the Poets' Corner streets and South Acton, larger Victorian houses towards Ealing Common and Bedford Park, and inter-war semis further north and west. Roofs are slate and clay tile on the older houses, with concrete tiles, hips and gable ends on the semis.
Roofing work most asked for in Acton
Acton work for us is mostly re-roofs on terraces and semis, hip and ridge repairs, dry verge on gable ends, flat roofs on extensions and chimney stack repointing.
The faults we fix on Acton roofs
Acton's faults are cracked ridge and hip mortar, loose gable verges, worn felt on extension roofs, and stacks that need repointing and new lead.
What your free survey in Acton checks
On an Acton survey we check the hips and ridges, the gable verges, the tile or slate slopes, the stack and its flashings and the flat roof at the back. Each item is photographed and priced separately.
Weather and exposure
Acton sits on higher ground between Ealing and Shepherd's Bush, and roofs on its longer roads take the wind from the west. Acton Park, Ealing Common and the street trees keep gutters busy in autumn.
Streets and postcodes we cover
We cover Acton across W3, including South Acton, Acton Green, East Acton, Acton Town and the roads towards Ealing Common and Turnham Green.
Access and planning
Acton jobs are mostly on terraces and semis with front or rear scaffold, planned with you before the start.
