Roofing Challenges on Hammersmith Properties
Hammersmith's housing stock presents a range of roofing challenges that require practical experience to deal with well. Victorian terraces — which make up much of the residential stock in W6 — have steep pitched roofs with natural slate, decorative ridge tiles and tall chimney stacks. These roofs age in predictable ways: slates slide, lead flashings fail and chimney stacks deteriorate through frost and rain.
Flat-roofed rear extensions, added to many Hammersmith terraces in the 1970s and 1980s, are another consistent source of work for us. The original felt systems used on these extensions have a lifespan of around 20 to 30 years — most are now well beyond this — and we regularly replace them with modern GRP or EPDM systems that provide genuine long-term waterproofing.
Hammersmith also has a number of loft conversions — a popular way to add space in W6 — and these often create new roofing details that need professional attention, including Velux installation, dormers and new valleys.
