Roofing Repairs We Carry Out

From pointing to full section repairs - if your roof has a problem, we can fix it.

🏔️

Ridge Tile Repointing

Over time the mortar bedding ridge tiles crack and fails, allowing water in and tiles to become loose. We repoint or rebed ridge and hip tiles to make them watertight and secure again.

🧱

Tile & Slate Replacement

Cracked, slipped or missing tiles and slates leave your roof vulnerable to leaks. We match the existing material as closely as possible and replace damaged pieces quickly and neatly.

🏛️

Chimney Repointing

Chimney stacks take a real battering from the weather. We repoint failed mortar joints, repair and replace flashings, and ensure your chimney stack is watertight and stable.

🌊

Leak Investigation

Roof leaks are not always easy to trace. We carry out a thorough inspection to locate the source of any leak and provide an honest assessment of what's needed to fix it.

Storm Damage Repairs

High winds can lift tiles, damage flashing and leave your roof exposed. We respond promptly to storm damage and make safe any urgent issues before carrying out permanent repairs.

🔗

Lead Flashing

Lead flashing seals the junction between your roof and walls, chimneys and dormers. We repair or replace failed flashing to stop water tracking down into your walls and ceilings.

Why Ridge Repointing Matters

The ridge tiles that run along the top of your roof are held in place by a mortar bed. Over years of exposure to freezing temperatures, rain and sun, this mortar shrinks, cracks and eventually crumbles away.

When the mortar fails, ridge tiles can become loose - and a loose ridge tile is a falling tile waiting to happen. Water also enters the gaps and soaks into the roof structure below.

Repointing or rebedding your ridge tiles is a straightforward job when caught early. Left too long, it can lead to tile loss, timber rot and costly internal water damage.

Repairs & Pointing FAQs

How do I know if my ridge needs repointing?

+

Signs include crumbling or missing mortar along the ridge line, tiles that look raised or uneven, or water getting into your loft. We can inspect and advise for free.

Can you match my existing tiles?

+

We will always try to source matching tiles. For older or unusual tiles it may not be a perfect match, but we'll discuss options with you before proceeding.

How quickly can you attend to storm damage?

+

We aim to respond to urgent storm damage calls as quickly as possible. Contact us directly on 07925 954544 for priority response.

Is a repair always better than re-roofing?

+

Not always. If your roof has widespread problems, a full re-roof may be more economical long-term. We'll give you an honest assessment of which option makes most sense.
