Repairs That Last

Roof Repairs Found at Source

A drip in the bedroom is rarely directly below the fault. Water runs along battens and rafters before it shows, so the first job on any repair is to trace it back. We check the tiles, ridge, valleys and flashings in that area until we can show you where it is getting in.

Once the cause is clear, the price comes to you in writing. Typical repairs include replacing slipped or cracked tiles, refixing a broken ridge, relining a worn valley and resealing flashings. Our team carries out this work on homes in Aylesbury, Chesham and the surrounding villages.

If water is coming in now and cannot wait, our emergency roofers page explains how we make the roof watertight first. For everything else, a repair planned on a dry day is usually simpler, and kinder on your budget, than one rushed in the rain.

When to Book Roof Repairs

Signs a Roof Needs Repair

Small faults on a roof grow quickly once water finds a way in. These are the signs worth acting on before they reach your ceilings.

Stains on the Ceiling

A brown ring on an upstairs ceiling or damp in the loft usually means water is getting past the tiles somewhere above it.

Slipped Tiles

Tiles that have slid out of line, or gaps where one has dropped, leave the felt or membrane beneath open to the weather.

Loose Ridge Tiles

Cracked mortar or a ridge tile that has shifted lets rain in at the top of the roof and can fall onto a path below.

Lifting Flashings

Lead that has pulled away from a wall or chimney, or mortar that has dropped out of the joint, lets water run behind it.

Roof Repairs: How It Works

How We Approach a Repair

No two faults are the same, but our repairs generally move through four stages.

1

Trace the Leak

We inspect inside and out, following the water back from the stain to the tiles, ridge, valley or flashing letting it in.

2

Quote in Writing

You get a fixed written price for the repair we recommend, along with the day or days we expect to be on your roof.

3

Make the Repair

We replace or refix what has failed, match materials to your roof where possible, and check the surrounding area for weak spots.

4

Sign Off Together

When the repair is finished and the ground below is tidy, we review the completed work with you and confirm everything has been done as agreed.

Roof Repairs FAQs

Roof Repair Questions

How Do You Find Where a Roof Is Leaking?

We start inside, looking at where the water shows and checking the loft for wet timber or staining. Then we look at the roof above, working uphill from that point, because water usually travels down the slope before it drips. Tiles, ridge, valleys and flashings are all checked until the entry point is found and can be shown to you.

Can You Match the Old Tiles on My Roof?

In most cases we can source a close match, either new tiles of the same pattern or reclaimed ones of a similar age and colour. Some older or discontinued tiles are harder to find, and when that happens we will set out the options before you approve the repair.

Is It Worth Repairing an Older Roof?

Often it is. A roof with a few slipped tiles or a tired valley can give good service for a long while once the faults are fixed. If we find that tiles or timbers are failing right across the roof, we will say so honestly, show you the evidence and leave the decision about what happens next with you.

Why Do Roof Tiles Slip?

Tiles hang on battens by small nibs and are held with nails or clips. Over time nails rust through, battens rot, and frost can snap the nibs away, so the tile slides out of position. Once one tile moves, rain can get under its neighbours. We replace the failed fixings as well as the tile, so the repair holds.

Will You Tell Me If You Find Rotten Timber?

Yes, always. If lifting tiles uncovers rotten battens or rafters, we stop and show you before going further. You will see the damage, hear what we recommend and agree any extra cost before we carry on. Nothing is added to the bill unless you have said yes to it first.

Can You Repair a Leaking Valley?

Yes. Valleys collect water from two roof slopes, so even a small split or a build-up of leaves can push rain under the tiles. Depending on what we find, the repair may mean clearing and resealing the valley or lifting the tiles on each side to replace the lining. We explain which is needed when we quote.
