Know the signs

Does your roof need attention?

Most roof problems start small. Catching them early usually means a repair rather than a bigger job later.

Look out for slipped, cracked or missing tiles, damp patches on ceilings, daylight in the loft, loose lead around the chimney, sagging along the ridge, or blistering and standing water on a flat roof.

If you spot any of these, get the roof looked at before the next spell of bad weather.

Repair or replace

An honest answer on your roof.

Not every tired roof needs replacing. Where the structure and most of the covering are sound, a targeted repair is often the sensible answer.

Where tiles are failing across the roof, the felt underneath has broken down or repairs keep coming back, a re-roof is usually better value. A modern tiled roof can last more than 50 years if maintained, with the underlay typically replaced at 30 to 40 years.

For flat roofs on extensions, garages and dormers, we fit GRP fibreglass, EPDM rubber or felt, depending on the roof and how it is used.
