Common Roof Problems We Fix

Slipped or cracked tiles, failed flashing around chimneys, blocked or split valleys, loose ridge tiles and rotten fascia boards cause most leaks we see. Wind lifts tiles and rain then finds the gap. Small repairs done early stop a ceiling coming down later.

More Information

Spotting a Leak Early

Brown rings on a ceiling, damp in a corner of an upstairs room, a musty smell in the loft or light showing through the roof boards are all early signs. Check the loft after heavy rain. Catching it early keeps it to a repair rather than a rebuild.

Repair or Replace?

If the timbers are sound and only a few tiles have gone, a repair is the sensible answer. Once battens are rotten, the felt has perished and tiles are slipping all over, patching stops being worth it. We tell you honestly which one you are looking at.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you do emergency roof repairs in Chatham?

Yes. If water is coming into the house after a storm, call 07961 020012 and we will get out to make it safe and stop the leak. Temporary cover can go on until a proper repair is possible. We answer calls seven days a week from 7:30am to 7pm.

How much do roof repairs cost in Chatham?

A few slipped tiles is a small job. Rebedding a ridge, renewing chimney flashing or repairing a valley costs more because of the access and time involved. Scaffolding adds to it on higher or steeper roofs. We look first, then give you a free written price.

Can you tell where a roof is leaking without scaffolding?

Often yes. A look in the loft with the lights off shows daylight and wet timbers, and ladder access covers a lot of lower roofs. Water can run along a rafter before it drips, so the wet patch on the ceiling is rarely under the hole. Scaffolding is used where the roof is high or steep.
