Roofing in Stratford
Stratford is really two roofscapes in one. Around the town centre and Maryland (E15) you've got the older East London stock — Victorian slate-roofed terraces, ex-council houses and flats above shops — with the slipped slates, blocked valleys and crumbling chimneys that come with age. Then there's E20, a postcode created in 2011 for the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and Stratford City, where thousands of new apartments have gone up, almost all with flat or low-pitch roofs.
The two worlds fail in different ways. The Victorian terraces need traditional repairs — matched slates, lead valleys, repointed stacks and renewed gutters. The newer blocks and the ex-local-authority estates need flat-roof work: EPDM and GRP re-covers, sound upstands and outlets, and the joints and flashings that always leak first. We do both.
Stratford has seen more building than almost anywhere in London over the last fifteen years, and many of the early-2000s flat roofs are now reaching the age where they begin to leak. If yours is staining ceilings or ponding after rain, we'll tell you honestly whether it needs a patch or a full re-cover.
What We Do in Stratford
Our Stratford work splits between roof repairs on the period terraces — slates, leaks, chimneys and gutters — and flat roofing on the newer blocks, extensions and estate housing. We also fit gutters, fascias and soffits, carry out full re-roofs, and answer emergency leaks seven days a week.

Stratford Roofing FAQs
Do you cover the new developments around the Olympic Park?
Yes — the E20 blocks and newer builds carry modern flat roofs, terraces and rooflights that need proper maintenance from early on. We repair and maintain them, and report with photos for managing agents.
What goes wrong with Stratford's older terraces?
The Victorian streets around Maryland fail the classic way: slipped slates as century-old nails rust through, tired flashings around chimneys, and gutters that overflow into the brickwork below.
How quickly can you get to Stratford?
We're minutes up the road from our Tower Hamlets base. Enquiries get a same-day response, and the emergency line answers seven days a week.
Do you fix flat roofs on extensions in E15?
Yes — felt, EPDM rubber and GRP fibreglass, repaired where the covering is sound and replaced where it isn't, always with a written quote first.
