Keystone Roofing & Building covers Highgate and the surrounding area, from quick repairs after a storm to full roof replacements and extensions.
Much of Highgate is Victorian and Georgian housing in conservation areas, with natural slate roofs, parapet gutters and a lot of leadwork. We can advise on what needs consent before work starts.
Every job starts with a free inspection and a written, itemised quote. If a repair will do, we’ll quote for a repair.

Questions from Highgate
Do you repair natural slate roofs?
Yes. We replace slipped and broken slates with matching natural slate and use copper tingles or hooks, not sealant.
Why does my parapet gutter keep leaking?
Parapet gutters are usually lead or felt-lined, and most leaks come from split lead, poor joints or blocked outlets. We find the cause and repair or re-line the gutter.
