Harrington Property Services

Roofing specialists

London roofs done properly

Repairs, re-roofs, flat roofs, chimneys and leadwork — priced in writing, done by the people who quoted it, and finished clean.

Who you are calling

An independent firm. The man who quotes it does the work.

Harrington is Vanslow Lee and a small team who have worked the same South London streets for years — Victorian terraces in Camberwell and Herne Hill, 1930s semis out towards Tooting, flat roofs on every rear extension in between.

If a repair will do, we will say so. Talking someone into a new roof they do not need is how you get one job instead of twenty years of them.

Roofing — 01–15

Fifteen things we do to a roof.

Most calls are a repair, a flat roof or a chimney. We do all three, plus everything that sits around them.

Every job photograph on this site is a Harrington job — our roofs, our scaffold, our people. If we have not done it, you will not see it presented as ours.

A slipped tile is a morning. A re-roof is a week.

Which one your roof needs is what the survey is for, and the survey is free.

How it works

What happens after you ring.

  1. You call

    Tell us what the roof is doing and we will tell you whether it needs looking at today or next week. The call-out line runs 24 hours for anything urgent.

  2. We look

    A free survey at a time that suits you. We photograph what we find so you can see the roof without going up a ladder.

  3. You get it in writing

    A fixed, itemised price. What is included, what is not, and how long it takes. No pressure and no call-out fee for a quote.

  4. We do the work

    The same people who quoted it turn up to do it. Scaffold where the job needs it, dust sheets where it does not, and we work around you.

  5. We clear up

    The site is left clean and the waste dealt with as the quote says. You get photographs of the finished work.

Where we work

Sixteen towns, eighteen SE and SW postcodes.

Camberwell is home, and more of our work is within a few miles of it than anywhere else. We travel further for larger jobs, and we will tell you honestly if you are too far for a small one.

Fifty-three reviews we cannot edit.

Every review here is on Checkatrade or Google, and neither platform lets us edit a word of one.

Amazing service! Van & his team spotted loose tiles on our roof while working next door and managed to sort the issue the next day. Honest, proactive, and professional. I’ll definitely be using them again should we need to.
