Repairs we do every week

  • Slipped and cracked tiles — usually a quick swap, before the felt underneath starts holding water.
  • Broken ridge tiles — the cap on the very top of the roof takes the worst of every storm.
  • Leaks around chimneys, valleys and flashings — the usual suspects when water gets in.
  • Damaged felt and battens — we strip back just enough to repair it properly, not paper over it.
  • Leaks from blocked or broken guttering — if the gutters can't cope, the roof ends up wearing the water.

Signs to keep an eye on

  • Damp patches or brown stains on ceilings
  • Daylight showing through gaps in the loft
  • Moss lifting the tiles and holding water
  • Bits of tile in the garden after a windy night

Not sure? Ring us. If it can wait, we'll tell you it can wait.

Reading roofs

Reading's housing keeps us busy — Victorian terraces off the Oxford Road, 1930s semis in Tilehurst, bungalows and newer estates further out. Different roofs, same job: keep the weather out and the house dry.
