Timber rafters exposed during a roof structure replacement

Replacing rotten rafters on a Kensington roof

Project / Kensington

Built detail by detail.

This Kensington project shows why a roof problem is not always limited to the visible covering. When rafters or other structural parts have deteriorated, the roof needs to be assessed before a repair or replacement plan is agreed.

Rotten Rafters, Roof Structure Replacement, Kensington London

A Kensington roof structure and rafter replacement.

The work focuses on rotten rafters and roof structure replacement in Kensington. The exposed structure makes it easier to understand what sits beneath the slates or tiles and why a quick patch is not always the right answer.

The covering material is not specified in the available project details, so this page does not guess at it. On another property, the correct solution could be a repair, partial rebuilding or a full replacement depending on the condition found on site.
