The benefits of repairing a roof
Quickly Stop Water Ingress
Even a single missing slate can let water into the roof structure. But if you catch this early, a repair costs a fraction of the remedial work needed after prolonged damp which will affect the felt, timbers, insulation, and the walls/rooms that are directly underneath the leak.
Protect Your Insulation
Wet loft insulation loses up to 50% of its effectiveness, which directly contributes to the rising energy bills in Warrington's older terraced and semi-detached houses. By protecting your insulation from leaks, you can also reduce energy bills and avoid replacing the insulation.
Extend The Roof's Lifespan
Quick repairs to flashings, mortar and individual tiles can add decades to a roof's life, delaying the cost of a full replacement. Even replacing the felt for a small section of the roof can make it good as new in a lot of cases. It could add up to 10 years to the lifespan in some cases.
Avoid Decreased Property Value
One of the most common issues with house surveys are roof defects. A repaired & guaranteed roof almost eliminates that risk, but it saves the large investment of a full replacement. Once a buyer sees anything about the roof in a survey, it often leads to lots of haggling or a fall through.

Different Roof Repair Types From Our Team
To protect your house or place of business, your roof is essential, invest in our professional roof repairs for full safety and peace of mind.
Tile repair
Missing, cracked or slipped tiles are very common repairs we see across Warrington, mainly after autumn and winter storms. We can usually match existing materials and perform the job quickly and cost effectively.
Flashing Repair
Lead or aluminium flashings around the chimney, skylights or roof junctions often tend to fail, especially on Warrington's older properties with more wear and tear. We re-dress, replace, or seal the flashings as required.
Chimney Repointing
With the frost and rain, chimney mortar can erode over time. We will rake out and repoint with a good lime or sand-cement mix, before re-bedding chimney pots as required to fully repair the chimney.
Often, we find blistering, cracking, or water pooling on felt or GRP flat roofs. We can often repair or overlay existing surfaces. If not, we advise when a full replacement becomes the smarter option.
Ridge Tiles & Hip Tiles
It's a safety concern to have loose ridge tiles, plus they cause leaks. We are pros at re-bedding and re-pointing the tiles using suitable dry-fix systems or simply traditional mortar, depending on the property.
Gutter Repair
With blocked or broken gutters, water gets under the roof edges, which can be troublesome. We'll clear, repair or replace uPVC and cast-iron guttering and also include a full roof health check at the same time.

Frequently Asked Questions - Roof Repairs
How quickly can you get to a job in Warrington?
For emergency call outs we will attend within 24 hours. Routine repair surveys are typically booked within 3-5 working days across all Warrington postcodes and surrounding areas alike.
Do I need scaffolding for a roof repair?
Not always, because many repairs on single-storey home extensions or low-pitched roofs can be completed safely with access towers or ladders. We assess this as part of the free inspection and won't charge for scaffolding unless it's genuinely needed - it's usually charged separately anyway.
Can I claim a roof repair on my home insurance?
Storm damage should be covered under buildings insurance. We can assess and provide a detailed report + photographs to support the claim. A lot of insurances will say it's general wear and tear and that it's not covered, but it's still worth contacting your insurer before booking in with us.
Can you repair a leaking roof?
We say that if more than 30% of your roof heavily damaged is affected, a replacement will make more sense for long term cost-effectiveness. We'll always give our honest opinion with pushing for a replacement if it's not necessary.
What types of roofs can you repair?
We can repair all roofs from slate, tile, GRP flat roofs, felt roofs. Any pitch, any height.
How much do roof repairs cost in Warrington?
Between £100 and £3,000 depending on the type of repair. The range includes single tile replacements all the way to partial felt and batten replacement. Any larger repairs aren't usually worthwhile, because a replacement would work out more cost effective.
