One company. Every solution.

Most exterior jobs need two or three trades and two or three firms, all blaming each other. Southridge covers the lot: the roof, the render, the drive, the drainage and the clearing up after.

Half tiled roof showing green breathable membrane and treated battens underneath

A Southridge re-roof, half laid. Membrane, battens, then tiles.

The bit you never see is the bit that fails

A roof or a driveway is only as good as what is underneath it, and that is exactly the part a cheap price comes out of. Nobody photographs the membrane, the battens or the sub-base, so nobody checks them.

We photograph ours. On the roof: breathable membrane, treated battens, every tile mechanically fixed, ridge and verge dry-fixed so there is no mortar to crack and wash out. On the ground: dig out to firm subgrade, geotextile membrane, MOT Type 1 compacted in layers, correct falls, haunched edge restraints.

It is not glamorous and it is not the cheapest way to do it. It is the reason the job is still flat and watertight in fifteen years.

Southridge is a local firm, not a national call centre that sends whoever is free. Four towns, plus the streets around them. If you are just outside, ring and ask.

Not sure if we cover you?

BR3

Beckenham

Big Victorian and Edwardian villas, and a lot of 1920s and 30s detached with tile hanging and deep frontages. Roofs here are large enough that a proper re-roof usually beats patching, and the wide front gardens are the ones that suit block paving with a real edge restraint and somewhere for the water to go.

BR7

Chislehurst

The grand end of the patch. Large period houses on big plots, plenty of them near protected trees or inside conservation area boundaries. The roofs are steep and complicated: valleys, chimney stacks, lead flashings and awkward scaffold. That is the work we want, and the work most firms quote nervously.

SE6

Catford

Edwardian terraces and villas, including the Corbett Estate and Culverley Green. Long shared roof slopes, tall stacks and original guttering that has usually had enough. Most of what gets asked for here is roof repairs, chimney rebuilds, new fascias, soffits and guttering, and turning a small front garden into parking that actually drains.

SE3

Blackheath

Conservation area territory. Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian houses where the roof has to look right as well as keep the water out: natural slate, proper lead valleys and flashings, repairs matched to what is already there. If your job is likely to need permission, we will say so before you spend anything.

Roofers have a bad name. We work the opposite way round.

Nobody enjoys ringing a roofer. Here is exactly what we do and do not do, so you know before you pick up the phone.

No doorstep sales

We do not knock, we do not tell you your roof is dangerous from the pavement, and we do not need an answer today.

A written quote first

You get the price in writing, with what is included, before anyone starts. Free, and no obligation.

No big deposits

Payment is staged against work done, not handed over in a lump before a single tile moves.

We turn up

If we say Tuesday, we mean Tuesday. If the weather stops us, you get a call, not silence.

Fully insured

Your house, your neighbour’s car and our lads are all covered while we are on site.

Left clean

Old tiles, spoil and offcuts go with us. Driveways swept, gardens raked, skip gone.
