Roof repairs for leaks, slipped tiles and damaged ridges
Small issues can quickly turn into costly damage if left untreated.
Roof repairs are not always straightforward. From slipped or broken tiles to damaged ridges, valleys, and chimneys, even minor issues can quickly lead to leaks if left untreated.
Our team carry out thorough inspections to identify the cause of the problem and complete repairs that are designed to protect your roof and prevent further damage.

Signs your roof needs repairing
Catch these early and a repair is usually small. Leave them and small problems turn into costly damage.
- Water stains on ceilings or wallsBrown marks or damp patches often point to a leak above, though water can travel a long way from where it gets in.
- Slipped, cracked or missing tilesWind and age loosen tiles. A gap lets water reach the felt and timbers beneath.
- Damaged ridge or hip tilesCracked pointing or loose ridge tiles let water in along the highest part of the roof.
- Worn flashing around chimneys and wallsThe joins between a roof and a chimney or wall are common leak points.
- Overflowing or sagging guttersBlocked or damaged guttering can push water back under the edge of the roof.
- Daylight in the loftIf you can see light through the roof from inside, water can get in too.
