Will the repair match the rest of the roof?

We source matched tiles or slates wherever they're still available. On older riverside period property an exact match isn't always possible and we'll tell you before we start, not after.

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 Loddon?

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.

How soon can someone look at a leak in NR14?

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.

From first call to finished roof

Find the actual source
Water travels. We trace it back from the stain to the entry point rather than sealing the first suspicious spot.
Make safe
If it's live and raining, weathering it temporarily comes first — before any pricing conversation.
Repair with matched materials
Tiles, slates or lead matched to the existing so the repair does not stand out.
Tell you what's next
If the roof has limited life left, you'll be told plainly, with an indicative figure for the eventual re-cover.

What Loddon roofs typically need

Riverside town centre with period and modern roofs.

Domestic and commercial in one visit
We quote homes and small commercial premises on the same terms — inspection first, written specification second.
Overhanging trees
Leaf fall from the trees along the valley fills gutters and valleys across NR14, which is a maintenance issue long before it becomes a roofing one.
Moss and blocked valleys
Damp valley air around Loddon builds moss quickly, which holds water against tiles and blocks valley runs.
Storm damage
Lifted ridges, torn flashings and missing tiles after a storm — usually urgent, and usually worth photographing for an insurance claim.

What goes on the roof

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.
