Roof Repair

Finding the real cause of a leak

Water rarely comes through the ceiling directly below the damage. It can travel along battens, sarking or rafters before it drips, so a good repair starts with tracing the leak back to where it enters the roof.

We inspect the roof surface, flashings, valleys, penetrations and gutters, then explain what we found and what needs fixing before any work starts.

What we repair

• Cracked, slipped or broken roof tiles
• Rusted, loose or lifted metal roof sheets and screws
• Worn ridge and hip capping, bedding and pointing
• Failed valley irons and leaking flashings
• Leaks around skylights, vents, chimneys and solar mounts
• Storm and debris damage
• Overflowing or damaged gutters that push water back into the roof

Repair or replace?

Most roofs can be repaired when the damage is limited to one area. If tiles are breaking all over the roof, or metal sheets are rusting through in several places, ongoing repairs can cost more than a new roof. We will tell you honestly which option makes sense for your roof.
