Typical jobs on bungalows

Village housing, bungalows and extensions.

  • Slipped and cracked tiles

    The most common call-out: a handful of tiles out of position letting water onto the felt below, often after a single windy night.

  • Extensions, porches and garages

    Small flat roofs on extensions and garages are a large share of local work and are often quoted with the main roof.

  • Storm damage

    Lifted ridges, torn flashings and missing tiles after a storm — usually urgent, and usually worth photographing for an insurance claim.

  • Slipped and cracked tiles

    Most Blofield Heath call-outs start with a handful of slipped tiles that let water onto the felt below.

Coverings suited to Blofield Heath

Repointing and re-bedding
Ridge and hip tiles re-bedded, or converted to dry-fix where mortar keeps failing.
Code-rated lead
Correct code lead for soakers, flashings, valleys and chimney work, in place of cracked cement fillets.
Gutter and downpipe repairs
Often the actual cause of a 'roof leak' and cheap to put right while access is up.
Matched replacement tiles and slates
Sourced to match the existing covering so a repair does not leave a patchwork of colours across the slope.

Practical answers before you book

How quickly can you get to Blofield Heath?
We advertise a 24/7 emergency call-out for active leaks. Call 07437 005301 and we'll give you a straight answer on timing rather than a promise we can't keep.
Is it worth claiming on insurance?
For storm damage, often yes. We provide photographs and a written description of the damage, which is what most insurers ask for. We don't handle the claim itself.
The leak appears in one room — is that where the hole is?
Rarely. Water runs along battens and rafters before it drops. We trace it back to the entry point rather than sealing the first suspicious spot above the stain.
Do we need permission from Broadland District Council?
Most like-for-like roof work doesn't need consent, but listed buildings and conservation areas can. If your property looks like it falls into that, we'll say so at inspection so it's dealt with before work starts.
Our roof is bungalows — is that a problem?
No, it's typical for the area. bungalows is one of the most common types we work on locally, and we'll match materials where any of the existing covering is being retained.
