Richmond upon Thames is the most conservation-dense borough in London, with 86 designated conservation areas, and the town centre itself sits within two of the oldest: Richmond Green, designated in 1969, and Richmond Hill, also designated in 1969 and extended several times since to cover the open landscape on both banks of the river as far as Richmond Gate. The Georgian and Regency terraces around the Green, including the row known as Maids of Honour Row facing it directly, and the townhouses climbing Richmond Hill, are largely slate roofed with lead flat roofs, box gutters and parapets that are original or close to it, and a very high proportion are individually listed.
The view from Richmond Hill across the Thames meadows towards Petersham and Ham is itself protected, not just by conservation area status but by a specific Act of Parliament, the Richmond, Petersham and Ham Open Spaces Act 1902, which is an unusually strong layer of protection for a townscape view and means anything visible on a roofline here, from a rooflight to a satellite dish, gets closer scrutiny than in most parts of London. Richmond Riverside itself was substantially rebuilt in the 1980s in a classical style by the architect Quinlan Terry, blending genuinely old and carefully reproduced Georgian detailing, which means not every period-looking roof on the riverside is as old as it appears, and the age of the actual roof covering needs checking rather than assumed from the facade.
Away from the historic core, the streets around The Vineyard and towards Richmond station have a mix of Victorian villas and later infill, with more conventional pitched slate and tile roofs and fewer listed building constraints.
From lead flat roofs on Georgian terraces to slate repairs on Victorian villas, we cover the full range of roofing work typical of TW9 and TW10. Every job starts with an on site assessment before any quote is given.
Repair and re-lining of the lead flat roofs, box gutters and parapets on the Georgian and Regency terraces around Richmond Green and Richmond Hill.
Repair of slipped and cracked slate on the Victorian villas around The Vineyard and towards Old Deer Park, matched to the existing slate.
GRP and EPDM rubber flat roofing for rear extensions and loft-conversion dormers, planned around Richmond's conservation area and listed building constraints.
Repointing, flaunching and flashing renewal on the tall Georgian chimney stacks around Richmond Green and Richmond Hill.
Same day callout for storm damage and slipped slates across TW9 and TW10, with temporary weatherproofing until a full repair can be scheduled.
Box gutters, parapet outlets and rainwater goods, plus clearance of internal gutters that drain Richmond's flat-roofed Georgian terraces.
Richmond's town centre sits inside two conservation areas that date back to 1969, and a large proportion of the Georgian and Regency terraces around the Green and up Richmond Hill are individually listed. These roofs are usually slate with lead flat sections, box gutters and parapets, much of it original or matching the original detailing closely. The view west from Richmond Hill across the river meadows is protected not only by planning policy but by a dedicated Act of Parliament passed in 1902, so a rooflight, a plant item or even a visible repair patch on a roof within that view can attract more scrutiny than the same work would elsewhere.
We treat every Richmond Green or Richmond Hill job as a listed-building-aware job by default, checking with the client whether listed building consent applies before assuming a like for like repair is straightforward, and specifying lead and slate to match the existing detailing rather than a modern substitute.
Richmond's Georgian terraces, Victorian villas and riverside reconstructions each need a different roof covering. These are the systems we install and repair most often across TW9 and TW10, and the property types they suit.
Not sure which applies to your roof? We confirm the right system for your property during the free inspection, taking into account the existing structure and whether the property is listed or sits within the Richmond Green or Richmond Hill conservation areas.
Every job is priced after a free, no obligation on site inspection, but the general guide below gives Richmond homeowners and leaseholders a starting point for budgeting before that visit.
| Job Type | Typical Cost Range |
|---|---|
| Minor repair (slipped slate, single ridge tile) | £150 - £350 |
| Emergency temporary weatherproofing | From £200 |
| Lead flat roof or parapet gutter re-line (per section, scaffold extra) | £650 - £1,800+ |
| Flat roof or chimney repair | £400 - £1,500+ |
| Full pitched roof replacement | Approx. £260 - £290 per m², plus scaffolding |
These figures are a general guide only. Leadwork on Richmond's listed Georgian terraces can fall outside a standard range once listed building consent, access, and the extent of the damage are assessed. Call 020 3633 8101 for a written quote after inspection, with no call out charge for the visit.

The process is the same whether the job is a single slipped slate or a full lead parapet re-line, so you know what to expect before we arrive.
Reach us by phone or through the contact form with your postcode and a description of the issue.
We inspect the roof, checking whether the property is listed or sits within a conservation area, and provide a clear quote before any work begins.
Our roofer completes the agreed work, matching slate, lead or tile to the existing roof where the job is a repair.
You receive a written summary of the work completed along with any maintenance advice, such as when a box gutter is next due for clearance.
Sprayed polyurethane foam applied to the underside of the rafters is now a common reason a sale falls through on a Richmond property or a lender declines a mortgage. Since 2023 many surveyors and lenders treat sprayed foam as a defect, because it hides the roof timbers from inspection and can trap moisture against the battens and rafters.
We remove open-cell and closed-cell spray foam from pitched roofs across Richmond TW9 and TW10 by hand, strip back any affected felt and battens, and leave the roof space clear for a RICS surveyor to inspect. Where the slate covering is sound it stays in place. Where the foam has bonded to the underside of the covering and pulls it apart on removal, we quote to re-roof at the same time so it is one project rather than two.
Richmond has a number of period conversions and purpose-built blocks, particularly around the town centre and towards Richmond station, with communal flat roofs. We work with managing agents, residents' management companies and freeholders on flat roof renewal, parapet gutter work and cyclical maintenance, including where listed building or conservation area consent applies to the block itself. We provide a written scope and costings suitable for a Section 20 leaseholder consultation, and can attend a directors' or residents' meeting to talk through the options and timing.

As roofers in Richmond TW9, we work from Chiswick High Road as part of our wider roofing company covering West and South West London. We treat listed building consent and conservation area status as a routine part of the inspection in Richmond, not an afterthought, given how much of the town centre falls within the Richmond Green and Richmond Hill conservation areas. You can read more about the team on our about us page.
Our roofers are directly employed, not subcontracted, so the team that quotes your Richmond job is the team that carries it out. We specify lead and slate to match existing detailing on Georgian terraces rather than defaulting to a modern substitute that would look wrong, or risk a listed building enforcement issue.

As a general guide, minor repairs such as a slipped slate or single ridge tile typically run £150 to £350, emergency temporary weatherproofing from £200, a lead flat roof or parapet gutter re-line £650 to £1,800 or more per section before scaffolding, and flat roof or chimney repairs £400 to £1,500 or more. A full pitched roof replacement is around £260 to £290 per square metre plus scaffolding. See our cost guide table above.

We carry out a free, no obligation inspection before providing a quote, which for a Richmond Green or Richmond Hill property includes checking whether it is individually listed or within a conservation area boundary. Once you accept the quote we schedule the work and confirm a date. There is no call out charge for the initial inspection visit anywhere within our Richmond coverage area.
Once you accept a quote we agree a date and confirm what access is needed, whether that is a roof ladder, a tower or a scaffold. Our roofer carries out the agreed work, matching slate, lead or tile to the existing roof where the job is a repair rather than a full replacement. Once the work is finished you receive a written summary of what was done, along with any maintenance advice.
On the Georgian terraces around Richmond Green and Richmond Hill, the most common issues are split lead laps in flat roofs and box gutters, and cracked parapet copings letting water into the party wall. On the Victorian villas around The Vineyard we see slipped Welsh slate from nail fatigue and cracked chimney flaunching. On parts of the 1980s Richmond Riverside rebuild, roof age can be mismatched to the classical facade, which is worth checking before assuming a like for like repair. Blocked box gutters after autumn leaf fall are also a regular call.
Yes, this is one of the jobs we do most in Richmond. We repair and re-line lead flat roofs, box gutters and parapets on the Georgian and Regency terraces around the Green and up Richmond Hill, matching Code 4 or Code 5 lead detailing to what already exists rather than defaulting to a modern substitute. We check whether listed building consent is likely to be needed before assuming a repair is straightforward, since many of these properties are individually listed.
A large proportion of the properties around Richmond Green and Richmond Hill are individually listed, and both areas are also within conservation areas designated since 1969. Like for like repairs are often permitted, but re-covering a roof in a different material, adding a rooflight, or altering a chimney can need listed building consent, particularly where the work is visible within the protected view from Richmond Hill. We flag anything that may need consent during the inspection and point you to the Richmond upon Thames conservation area statements before work is booked.
It can. The view from Richmond Hill across the river meadows towards Petersham and Ham is protected by the Richmond, Petersham and Ham Open Spaces Act 1902, on top of the conservation area designation, which means anything visible on a roofline within that view, such as a rooflight, plant equipment, or even a visible repair patch, can attract closer scrutiny than the same work elsewhere. We flag this during the inspection for any property that may fall within the protected sightline.
Yes. We hand-strip open-cell and closed-cell spray foam from pitched roofs across Richmond TW9 and TW10, clear the roof space so a RICS surveyor can inspect the timbers, and provide a written record for a lender or buyer. If the foam has bonded to the underside of the slate and the covering cannot be saved, we quote to re-roof at the same time so it is handled as one project.
Yes. Richmond has a number of period conversions and purpose-built blocks, particularly around the town centre and towards the station. We provide a written scope and costings suitable for a Section 20 leaseholder consultation, carry out condition surveys and budget costings for reserve-fund planning, and can attend a directors' or residents' meeting to talk through the options, including where listed building or conservation area consent applies to the block.
We can assess this as part of an inspection. Richmond Riverside was substantially rebuilt in the 1980s in a classical style by the architect Quinlan Terry, blending genuinely historic buildings with carefully detailed new construction, so a period-looking facade does not always mean a period-age roof covering. We check the actual roof structure and covering rather than assuming its age from the street elevation, which matters for planning any repair or replacement schedule.
Isolated slate repairs can sometimes be done from a roof ladder or a tower. Lead flat roof and parapet work on a Georgian terrace usually needs a scaffold for safe access. We confirm the access method during the inspection, plan a scaffold to minimise how long it is up, and check parking and any permit requirements with Richmond upon Thames Council in advance so the job can start on the date agreed.
Yes. We carry out roof condition inspections for buyers ahead of a purchase, covering lead, slate and tile condition, flashings, box gutters and any signs of water ingress, with a written report provided afterward. This is a particularly useful check on a listed Georgian terrace, where the true condition and age of the roof covering behind an attractive facade can be hard to judge without getting up to look.
