Why Ushii in Kensington
Ushii delivers roofing project work across Kensington (SW7 · W8) with directly employed trades. Not a broker, not a list of numbers passed to whoever is free that week. The carpenters, roofers, electricians and gas engineers on your Kensington site are on our payroll, which is why programmes hold and standards stay consistent from strip out to snagging.
Kensington houses are technically demanding. Grade II listing, listed party walls, basement engineering under a stucco facade and a Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea planning department that expects proper drawings and proper trades. We work here every week. Our teams know the streets, the neighbours' surveyors and the site logistics you need to run a full refurbishment on a Cornwall Gardens crescent without upsetting the entire postcode.
Prime central planning departments expect measured drawings, heritage statements and a considerate constructors approach to hours, deliveries and noise. We prepare all of it before a single tool arrives on site.
Most roof problems are lead problems. Or eaves problems. Or a nailed slate that should have been hooked. We diagnose properly, specify properly and leave a roof that will not need us back for a generation.

Common questions
Roofing and roof restoration in Kensington, answered.
How much does a roofing project cost in Kensington?
Cost follows scope, access and the condition of the building rather than the postcode. After a survey in Kensington we issue a fixed, itemised price so you can see exactly what each element of the roofing project carries. There are no provisional sums hidden in the back pages.
Do you work on stucco-fronted family houses in Kensington?
Regularly. Stucco-fronted family houses, Mansion flats and lateral conversions, Garden-square townhouses all feature in our Kensington workload, and each one is surveyed on its own terms before we price anything.
Which areas near Kensington do you cover?
We work across Chelsea, Notting Hill, Holland Park, Knightsbridge, South Kensington and the wider London area, with a directly employed team rather than local trades brought in for the day.
Do we need to move out?
No. Roof works do not stop the house functioning. Scaffold and dust protection are managed carefully.
Will you match our slate?
Where a listed building requires like-for-like, we source matching salvaged slate. Otherwise we specify Welsh.
