Hunstanton roof repair service
Leak tracing and repair, slipped and broken tiles, storm damage, ridge repointing, flashings and valleys — from single tiles to full sections. In Hunstanton that usually means working on carrstone villas and guest houses, alongside commercial jobs around seafront hotels. King's Lynn & West Norfolk Borough Council is the local authority, and we'll flag anything that may need consent before we start.

What Hunstanton roofs typically need
Seafront properties and carrstone cottages in exposed coastal weather.
Holiday lets and seasonal timing
Lets and chalets are usually best worked on out of season; we plan dates around bookings.
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.
Corroded fixings and flashings
Nails, clips and thin flashings degrade faster in the marine air around PE36, so we specify stainless or non-ferrous where they will be exposed.
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.
What goes on the roof
- 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.
- Gutter and downpipe repairs
- Often the actual cause of a 'roof leak' and cheap to put right while access is up.
- Repointing and re-bedding
- Ridge and hip tiles re-bedded, or converted to dry-fix where mortar keeps failing.

Hunstanton roofing questions
- 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.
- 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.
- How quickly can you get to Hunstanton?
- 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.
- How soon can someone look at a leak in PE36?
- 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.
- Can you work on commercial premises around seafront hotels?
- 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.
