Common homeowner situations

Start with what you have noticed, then keep the decision simple.

Most homeowners do not start with a roofing term. They notice a damp patch, a slipped tile, overflowing guttering or a roof that suddenly looks unsafe. Start with the visible concern, then use photos and plain advice to choose the safest next step.

Water is coming in

Call first, keep clear of wet electrics, and get a roofer to trace the source rather than patching blindly.

Know what needs doing before you agree to the job.

The journey is deliberately simple: tell us about the leak or concern, let us inspect the roof, then choose whether a repair, gutter fix, flat-roof renewal or larger quote is sensible.

Slate and tile roofs

Slipped slates, cracked tiles, loose ridges or worn roof coverings.

Gutters and roofline

Overflowing gutters, tired fascias or rainwater running down walls.
