Roof Repairs & Leaks FAQs
- Can you repair in bad weather?
- We can usually make a roof safe and temporarily watertight in poor weather, then complete the permanent repair once it's dry enough to work properly.
- 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.
- How quickly can you get to Eye?
- 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.
- Does the exposure here change what you'd specify?
- Sometimes. Sheltered streets can run standard details, but shared valleys, restricted scaffold or heavy moss growth all change how we'd approach the work.
- Our roof is historic town roofs — is that a problem?
- No, it's typical for the area. historic town roofs 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.
