Wallington, Beddington and Roundshaw
Wallington grew around its station in the late Victorian and Edwardian years, and the roads either side of the line still hold those houses: bay-fronted semis and short terraces with slate or clay tile roofs, chimney stacks shared across the party wall and small back additions. South of the town centre, towards the Surrey border, the stock turns inter-war, with larger detached houses and a good number of bungalows on generous plots.
Roundshaw was built in the 1960s on the old Croydon Airport land, and much of it went up with flat roofs, several of which have since been rebuilt or pitched. Beddington and Hackbridge mix older cottages near the park with post-war and new housing towards the Wandle. With that spread, Wallington needs a roofer who handles slate, tile and flat roofs equally well. Apex cover every type, and they are three miles away along the A232 through Waddon.

Roofs across SM6 and the faults they bring
Three quite different kinds of housing, three different weak spots.
Flat roofs on Roundshaw homes
Flat roofs from the 1960s and later extensions blister, split and hold puddles. Apex replace them in torch-on felt, Firestone RubberCover EPDM or GRP fibreglass, fully guaranteed, with a 14-day cooling-off period.
Edwardian bay fronts
Bays on Wallington semis carry small slate or tile roofs with lead at the wall. When the lead fails, damp shows round the front bedroom window. Apex renew the flashing and refix the slates.
Bungalow roofs in south Wallington
A bungalow's roof covers the whole house, so one slipped tile can soak the living room. Apex repair or re-roof bungalows on new battens and breathable membrane, and fit PIR insulation between the rafters while the roof is open.

Roofing questions from Wallington
What flat roof is best for a Wallington house?
The right flat roof depends on its shape and how it is used. Torch-on felt is a proven, tough choice for garages and extensions. Firestone RubberCover EPDM is a single rubber sheet with no seams across the middle, well suited to simple shapes. GRP fibreglass gives a hard finish that stands up to foot traffic. Patrick explains each on your roof, and every Apex flat roof is fully guaranteed.
Do you repair roofs on Roundshaw?
Yes. Apex repair and replace roofs across Roundshaw, flat and pitched. Some homes there still have flat roofs from the original build, others over later extensions, and all are covered by Apex's full flat roof guarantee. Patrick checks the deck and the outlets first, so the new covering goes onto a sound base.
Do Edwardian roofs in Wallington still have their original slate?
Many still do, and after a century the slates themselves are often sound while the nails holding them have failed. That is called nail sickness, and it shows as slates slipping out of line. Apex refix loose slates with clips, or strip the slope and re-slate it on new battens and membrane. Patrick photographs the roof so you can see which one you need.
Should a Wallington bungalow be re-roofed in tile or slate?
Concrete interlocking tile suits most bungalow roofs in south Wallington, because it matches what the street already has and covers a wide, low roof well. Natural slate and slate-effect are both options on a steeper pitch or where you want a different look. Patrick checks the pitch, which decides what can be fitted, and prices each option up front.
