Storm damage, slipped slates, cracked tiles, loose ridge pieces and worn flashing can allow water to travel into the roof. Our repair visits start with a careful inspection of the accessible roof covering and key junctions, followed by a clear explanation of what needs attention. We aim to repair the affected area and preserve sound existing materials wherever practical.
Roof repairs for slate and tiled roofs
On slate roofs, individual natural or fibre-cement slates may be replaced and fixings checked around the repair. On tiled roofs, we assess concrete and clay tiles, interlocks, verges and ridge details. We also check leadwork, valleys and chimney junctions where these meet the roof covering, since a leak can appear away from its entry point.
What the work involves
A small repair can prevent a minor defect becoming a larger problem. If the covering has widespread wear, we will explain where repair remains sensible and when a wider renewal may be more dependable. No roof is treated as identical: pitch, age, access and previous repairs all affect the best approach.
Every roof is assessed on its own condition, structure, access and exposure. Before we start, we explain the likely cause or proposed specification, the work involved and any limitations we can see. If a roof needs a wider repair than first expected, we discuss it with you before proceeding.
Roofing materials and details
Natural & fibre-cement slate
Slate roofs need correctly sized slates, sound fixings and careful detailing around ridges, valleys and abutments. Repair and renewal methods are chosen to suit the existing roof.
Clay & concrete tiles
Profile, pitch and interlock all affect the repair. We check for cracked or displaced tiles, failing ridge details and junctions that may admit wind-driven rain.
Flat roof systems
Felt, GRP and single-ply coverings each use different detailing and repair materials. We identify the system first and discuss a compatible solution.
