Why Norfolk roofs fail
Market-town period roofs and surrounding village housing.
Domestic and commercial in one visit
We quote homes and small commercial premises on the same terms — inspection first, written specification second.
Chimney and abutment leaks
Cement fillets crack and let water track down the stack. Replacing them with properly sized lead is a permanent fix rather than a seasonal one.
Failed ridge and hip mortar
Bedding mortar on timber-framed period buildings cracks and lets ridge tiles move; dry-fix is the usual long-term answer on the exposed side towards the A140.
Slipped and cracked tiles
Most Diss call-outs start with a handful of slipped tiles that let water onto the felt below.
Materials and systems we use
- Gutter and downpipe repairs
- Often the actual cause of a 'roof leak' and cheap to put right while access is up.
- Code-rated lead
- Correct code lead for soakers, flashings, valleys and chimney work, in place of cracked cement fillets.
- Temporary weathering
- Where a full repair has to wait for materials or weather, the roof is made watertight in the meantime.
- Valley liners
- GRP or lead valley liners where the original has split or corroded through.

Questions we get asked in Diss
- Will the repair match the rest of the roof?
- We source matched tiles or slates wherever they're still available. On older timber-framed period buildings an exact match isn't always possible and we'll tell you before we start, not after.
- 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.
- How quickly can you get to Diss?
- 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.
- Can you work on commercial premises around Diss business park?
- Yes — shops, offices, workshops, agricultural and industrial units. Work is scheduled so trading and site access carry on where possible, and larger roofs are quoted with a planned maintenance option if that's more useful than a one-off repair.
- How soon can someone look at a leak in IP22?
- Call 07437 005301 and we'll arrange an inspection. We advertise a 24/7 emergency call-out for active leaks and storm damage, and we'll tell you on the phone what's realistic rather than promise a fixed time.
