You have probably spotted a damp patch on the ceiling, a tile lying in the garden after high winds, or a drip that only shows up when it rains hard. Roof problems are disruptive — you worry about water getting into the bedroom, the cost of the repair, and how long it will take. This is not something to put off. A small leak today can mean a ruined ceiling, soaked insulation and rotten timbers by next month. We can find the source and fix it fast, usually the same day you call.
Signs You Need a Roof Repair
The clearest warning sign is a damp patch or brown stain on an upstairs ceiling — that means water has already got past the tiles and membrane. Other signs include tiles lying in the garden or driveway after a storm, granules from concrete tiles washing into the gutters, and a loose or missing ridge tile visible from the street. Inside the loft, look for daylight coming through the roof where there should be none, dark patches on the timbers, or a musty smell that means moisture is getting in. Waiting makes it worse because water tracks along timbers and membrane, so the leak you see on the ceiling is often metres away from the actual entry point. A simple tile replacement is a quick, low-cost repair if caught early, but leave it and you may need a full Roof Renewals project with new timbers and plasterwork.
Our Roof Repair Options
We handle every type of roof repair, from a single slipped tile to a persistent leak that has defeated previous attempts. Leak Tracing is where we start — we inspect the roof from outside and inside, check the membrane, tiles, flashing and ridge, and find the actual entry point rather than just the visible damage. Slipped and Broken Tile Replacement is the most common repair, and we carry a range of concrete and clay tiles to match your existing roof. Ridge Tile Re-pointing secures loose ridge and hip tiles that high winds have loosened, re-bedding them in fresh mortar. Lead Flashing Repairs fix the joints around chimneys, valleys and abutments where cracked or lifted lead lets water in. If the damage is storm-related, our Storm & Wind Damage Repair service can secure the roof quickly and provide an insurance-ready report. And if the damage is more widespread, we will tell you honestly whether a repair is enough or whether you need Roof Installation or Roof Renewals instead.
Roof Repair for Iver, Buckinghamshire, Surrey & Hampshire Homes
The mix of older and newer housing across Iver, Beaconsfield, High Wycombe and the wider three-county area means we see the full range of roof repair needs. Period properties in Amersham and Marlow often have clay tiles and lead flashing that crack and lift with age. Newer estates in High Wycombe and Camberley can still suffer from poor installation — under-laid tiles and unsealed flashings that fail in the first big storm. The exposed ridges of Buckinghamshire and the windy Hampshire coast around Portsmouth and Gosport see regular wind damage to ridge tiles and slates. Because we are based locally in Iver, we respond fast and know which problems are common in which areas.
What to Expect
When you call, we will ask where the leak is showing up, how long it has been happening and what type of roof you have. We aim to come out the same day to inspect the roof from outside and, if needed, from the loft. We will find the actual source of the problem, not just the visible symptom, and give you a clear, written quote before any work begins. Most roof repairs are completed the same day, with a timeline you can rely on.
