About Us
Experienced Roofing Contractors Based in Erith
R Garratt Roofing was built on a straightforward premise: local property owners need a roofer who turns up on time, explains the problem clearly, and gets the job done right the first time. Operating out of Erith, we have spent years working on the varied housing stock across Kent and South East London, from Victorian terraces to modern commercial units. We keep our team tight and our standards high. Every tile laid, flat roof sealed, and gutter cleared is handled by skilled professionals who take genuine pride in their trade. No subcontractors, no corners cut, and no inflated invoices.
Quality Workmanship
I started R Garratt Roofing because I got tired of seeing homeowners get ripped off by cowboy builders who vanish the moment it rains. When you hire us, you are getting an honest assessment of your roof's condition. If a repair will buy you five years, I will tell you that instead of pushing an expensive full replacement you do not need. My name is on the van, and my reputation is behind every single joint we seal and slate we nail down. If something isn't right, I am the one you call to fix it.

How R Garratt Roofing Grew Across Erith and Beyond
The business started with a simple toolbox, a reliable van, and a reputation for sorting out leaks that other contractors couldn't find. In the early days, word of mouth spread across Erith and Slade Green simply because we answered the phone when others didn't and finished jobs when promised. As demand grew across Bexleyheath, Welling, and Dartford, the operation expanded organically. We added specialist equipment for flat roofing and chimney work, but kept the same grounded work ethic that got us started. Today, we handle everything from emergency storm repairs in Thamesmead to full roof replacements in Swanley Village. Despite growing our service area, our core philosophy remains unchanged: treat every roof like it is protecting our own home.
