The cost of a roof repair depends on the type of roof, how easy it is to access and how much damage there is. A small tile repair costs far less than a flat roof or lead work repair. We offer a free survey and give you a clear, written quote before any work starts, so you know the price up front with no hidden extras.

Yes. We find the real cause of the leak, whether it is cracked or slipped tiles, damaged flashing or worn lead, and repair it properly instead of just patching it. Small roof repairs are often completed in a single visit, which helps stop water damage to your ceilings and walls.

Common causes include cracked, slipped or missing tiles, damaged or worn flashing, failing lead work, blocked or broken gutters, crumbling chimney pointing and worn flat roof coverings. Storms often make existing weak spots worse. A proper roof inspection finds the exact source, so the repair fixes the problem for good.

It depends on the age and condition of the roof and how widespread the damage is. During your free roof survey we will give you honest advice. If a repair will do the job, we will tell you, and we will only recommend a new roof when it is genuinely needed.

It depends on the size and style of the roof and the weather. After the survey we will agree a start date that suits you and give you a realistic timescale before work begins, so you know what to expect from day one.
