Start with the fault you can see
Roof Repairs
A lasting roof repair deals with the route water takes into the building, not only the stain you can see indoors. The first job is to inspect the roof covering, edges, junctions and drainage around the problem.
Explore service ↗Repair / 02Emergency Roof Repairs
An emergency visit is about reducing immediate risk and water entry. A safe temporary repair is not always the permanent solution, so the follow-up work should be explained separately.
Explore service ↗Repair / 03Storm Damage Repairs
Storm damage is not always obvious from the ground. Slates can lift without falling, ridge pieces can loosen and flashings can open at the edge, so the affected zone needs a methodical check.
Explore service ↗Repair / 04Roof Leak Detection
Water often travels along timber, underlay or masonry before it becomes visible indoors. The wet mark is therefore a clue, not always the exact entry point.
Explore service ↗Repair / 05Ridge & Verge Repairs
Ridges and verges sit in exposed positions. Cracked mortar may be cosmetic at first, but loose units or open edges need attention before more material is displaced.
Explore service ↗Repair / 06Roof Valley Repairs
A valley leak can come from a split lining, poor side laps, broken cuts or a blocked outlet. Clearing debris alone will not fix damaged waterproofing beneath it.
Explore service ↗Repair / 07Leadwork & Flashing
Flashings protect roof junctions. When they lift, split or pull away from masonry, water can track behind an otherwise sound roof covering.
Explore service ↗Repair / 08Sarking Replacement
Small local sections may sometimes be replaced during a repair. Widespread decay can change the scope of a re-roof, which is why quotations should explain what happens if hidden damage is uncovered.
Explore service ↗Repair / 09Chimney Repairs
Water near a chimney can enter through flashings, open masonry joints, cracked haunching or the roof covering beside the stack. The repair must match the actual route.
Explore service ↗Repair / 10Insurance Roof Repairs
Keep dated photographs, note when the damage was first seen and take reasonable steps to limit further loss. Your insurer decides what the policy covers and may set its own evidence requirements.

New Roofs
A new roof is more than the visible slate, tile or membrane. The assessment should cover the supporting deck, water-shedding layers, ventilation, junctions, drainage and safe access needed to complete the work.
Explore service ↗Roof / 02Pitched Roofing
A pitched roof sheds water through overlapping slate or tile courses. The supporting deck, underlay, battens, flashings and ventilation still matter, even though most are hidden from view.
Explore service ↗Roof / 03Slate Roofing
One missing slate can be a small repair. Repeated slipping across several slopes may point to ageing fixings or wider roof condition, so replacing single slates forever is not always the sensible plan.
Explore service ↗Roof / 04Scottish Slate Roofing
Traditional Scottish slate can vary in size, thickness and appearance. Matching work may involve careful sorting and reclaimed material, subject to availability and any planning or listed-building requirements.
Explore service ↗Roof / 05Tile Roofing
A broken tile should be replaced with a compatible profile. When tiles move repeatedly, the roof needs a wider check of fixings, battens and exposure rather than another quick patch.
Explore service ↗Roof / 06Flat Roofing
A flat roof relies on a continuous waterproof layer and carefully formed edges, outlets and penetrations. Pooling water can be a symptom of poor falls or blocked drainage, not just a membrane problem.
Explore service ↗Roof / 07EPDM Rubber Roofing
EPDM is a flexible rubber membrane commonly used on domestic flat roofs. It is not simply laid over every old roof; the deck and all junctions need to suit the chosen system.
Explore service ↗Roof / 08GRP Fibreglass Roofing
GRP creates a rigid, joint-free waterproof surface across many small roofs. Movement, poor deck joints or incorrect mixing can affect the finish, so the full system matters.
Explore service ↗Roof / 09Felt Roofing
Modern felt roofing is normally built in layers. A blister or split can sometimes be repaired, but broad movement, tired laps or deck damage may make renewal more economical.
Explore service ↗Roof / 10Flat Roof Insulation
A warm roof places insulation above the structural deck, while a cold roof has insulation below with a ventilated void. The right approach depends on the existing construction and current standards.
Explore service ↗Roof / 11Garage Roof Replacement
A garage roof quote should say whether the existing covering is removed, how damaged deck sections are handled and how water will reach the gutter or outlet.

Roof Surveys & Reports
A free quotation visit is not automatically a formal roof survey. The scope, access method, photographs, written detail and limitations should be agreed before the inspection.
Explore service ↗Service / 02Pre-Purchase Roof Surveys
A roof-focused inspection can provide closer detail on coverings, flashings, drainage and visible roof-space clues. It cannot confirm hidden construction without opening up and does not guarantee future performance.
Explore service ↗Service / 03Roof Maintenance Plans
A useful maintenance plan records the roof's known weak points, checks drainage and junctions at suitable intervals, and separates urgent work from items that can be budgeted.
Explore service ↗Service / 04Roof Cleaning & Moss Removal
The safest method depends on the roof material and condition. High-pressure washing can damage some coverings, force water beneath laps and remove protective surfaces, so it is not a default answer.
Explore service ↗Service / 05Roof Ventilation
Adding vents without understanding the moisture route can leave the real problem unchanged. The loft, insulation, eaves and roof covering should be considered together.
Explore service ↗Service / 06Guttering & Roofline
An overflowing gutter is not always blocked. Loose brackets, poor falls, undersized sections or a restricted downpipe can all send water down the wall.
Explore service ↗Service / 07Gutter Repairs
Many gutter faults can be repaired if the profile is sound and matching parts are available. Brittle sections, widespread distortion or badly fixed fascias may make replacement more sensible.
Explore service ↗Service / 08Gutter Replacement
Replacement makes sense when sections are brittle, badly warped, repeatedly leaking or no longer supported by a sound fascia. The new system should be planned as a complete water route.
Explore service ↗Service / 09Gutter Cleaning
Cleaning removes leaves, moss and silt, but it will not correct poor falls, damaged seals or an undersized outlet. Those faults should be recorded separately.
Explore service ↗Service / 10Fascias & Soffits
Fascias support the gutter and close the roof edge; soffits finish the underside and may help ventilation. Rotten timber or loose uPVC can point to a leak from above.
Explore service ↗Service / 11Tenement Roof Repairs
A stain in one flat can begin higher up the roof or at a shared junction. The inspection should map the water route and show owners which common area needs attention.
Explore service ↗Service / 12Shared & Common Roof Repairs
Roof ownership and payment questions depend on title deeds and individual circumstances. We can explain the roof work; owners should take legal or factor advice where responsibility is unclear.
Explore service ↗Service / 13Commercial Roofing
Commercial roof work needs more than a repair description. The plan may need access controls, protection below, phased working, reporting and coordination around occupied areas.
Explore service ↗Service / 14Dormer Roofing
A dormer leak may start at the flat top, a side flashing, cladding joint or window corner. Treating only the internal stain often misses the water route.
Explore service ↗Service / 15Roof Window Installation
VELUX is a specific manufacturer; other roof windows and skylights are also available. The selected product and flashing kit must suit the roof covering and pitch.
Explore service ↗Service / 16Conservatory Roof Replacement
Replacing a lightweight conservatory roof is a building project, not only a new outer covering. Structural suitability and building-standard requirements should be confirmed before work is promised.
