Islington London Roof Replacement and Installation

N.H.R.B.S. is a family-run roofing company with 36+ years of experience serving Islington and the surrounding area. We carry out roof replacements, repairs and new installations on the borough's varied housing stock — Georgian squares, Victorian terraces, estates and modern conversions — always assessing the roof first and advising on the right long-term solution.

Islington's conservation areas, from Barnsbury to Canonbury, mean many roofs sit within strict planning rules. We handle listed buildings and conservation-area work regularly and know how to keep the work correct and compliant.

We replace and repair pitched roofs, flat roofs, lead work and guttering across Islington, using materials suited to each property — Welsh slate and clay tiles for period homes, and durable felt, asphalt or single-ply membranes where flat roofs are the right answer.

Our Islington roofing services cover:

Much of Islington was built in the Georgian and Victorian eras, and a large share of it is listed or sits in a conservation area. These roofs have their own detailing — parapets, valley gutters, chimney stacks and traditional slating — and their own consent requirements.

Our team has 25 years of experience on heritage and listed properties, including 11 years maintaining the roofs of Oxford University. We work with traditional materials such as Welsh slate, clay ridge tiles and lead, and we prepare the paperwork required for listed building work as part of the service.

All new roofs and full replacements come with a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee, independent of our trading status, plus a Building Control compliance certificate for qualifying work.

We give transparent, fixed pricing and honest advice: if a repair will do, we say so. If a roof is beyond economical repair, we explain why. That straightforward approach, backed by 36+ years of experience, is why Islington homeowners and estate managers choose N.H.R.B.S.

We offer professional home buyer roof surveys across Islington, carried out up close by experienced roofers. A survey before exchange gives you peace of mind about the roof's condition and likely costs — useful when negotiating on an older home.
