Professional fascias & soffits across Forest Gate (E7). Free quotes, 10-year guarantee, no call-out fee.
Victorian terraces dominate Forest Gate — densely packed rows along Woodgrange Road, Romford Road, and the streets between them. Original Welsh slate roofs with chimney stacks every 5–6 metres along the terraced rows. Some Edwardian properties on wider avenues like Hampton Road retain decorative ridge tiles and finials. HMO conversions are common, adding loft dormers and additional flue penetrations to original roof structures.
Most properties in Forest Gate built before the mid-1990s have original timber fascias and soffits that are now 30–60 years old and failing. Along Woodgrange Road and Hampton Road, we regularly find timber fascias that have been painted over rot for decades. When we remove old fascias in Forest Gate, we typically find rotten rafter feet behind them on 30–40% of jobs — damage that costs £200–£800 to repair but would cost £5,000+ if left to spread into the roof structure.
UPVC is the practical choice for 95% of Forest Gate properties: maintenance-free for 25+ years, available in white, black, rosewood, or anthracite grey. Standard UPVC costs £115–£175 per linear metre fitted at London rates.
We always install ventilated soffit boards that meet Part F ventilation requirements — the 10mm continuous eaves gap that prevents condensation in the roof void. This is the detail that many installers skip, and the one that causes the most problems when missing.

“They patched our emergency flat roof leak in Beckton on Christmas Eve. Christmas Eve. And charged the standard emergency rate, no holiday premium. That is the kind of company you want to use.”
“Tile roofing on our new-build extension in Wanstead. Matched the existing Marley Ludlow Plus perfectly. You cannot tell where the old roof ends and the new one begins.”
“Our Becontree Estate semi needed a complete re-roof — the 1930s clay tiles were crumbling and the battens underneath were rotten. Four days from start to finish, new concrete tiles, all new battens and felt. Looks brilliant.”
