Roof repairs in Norwich, sorted before they spread
A roof leak never picks a good time. It is always the morning of a birthday party, or the night the rain comes sideways off the coast. The good news is that most leaks start small. A single cracked tile, a bit of worn flashing round the chimney, a gutter that has come away. Catch it early and the repair is quick and cheap. Leave it, and the water gets into the timbers, the loft insulation and the ceilings.
We repair all kinds of roofs across Norwich, from the Victorian terraces in the Golden Triangle to the 1930s semis in Eaton and the newer estates out at Costessey. We find the real cause, not just the spot where the water shows up, because the two are often a metre or more apart.
What is included
- Full roof inspection, inside the loft and up top
- Replacing cracked, slipped or missing tiles and slates
- New lead flashing around chimneys, valleys and walls
- Repointing ridge and hip tiles that have come loose
- Fixing or replacing felt and battens where needed
- Clearing the cause, then a tidy-up before we go
Worth a look
Signs your roof needs a repair
- Water marks or damp patches on bedroom ceilings
- Tiles in the garden or on the path after a windy night
- Daylight coming through the loft
- Sagging, damp or musty smelling loft insulation
- Cracked or missing mortar along the ridge
- Drips near the chimney when it rains
Storm damage repairs after Norfolk gales
Norwich gets battered every autumn when the wind comes in off the North Sea. Loose tiles lift, ridge mortar cracks, and aerials and fences end up in next door's garden. If a storm has left your roof open, call us. We will make it safe first, cover any gap to stop more water getting in, then give you a fair price for the proper fix. If you are claiming on insurance, we can give you photos and a written report to send them.
Why a quick repair saves you money
A cracked tile costs very little to swap. The same leak left for a winter can rot a rafter, ruin a ceiling and soak your insulation, and now you are looking at a much bigger bill. That is why we always tell people to get a leak looked at sooner rather than later. If a repair will do the job, we will say so. We are not here to talk you into a new roof you do not need yet.
