Roofing repair or replacement?
All roofs have a lifespan. While the average felt roof might last somewhere between 10-20 years, slate roofs last over a century with good maintenance. Regardless, if you’ve noticed a leak or other problem, the main question is: Should you get the roof repaired or replaced?
Generally, we recommend a repair for most tile and slate roofs – unless it’s nearing the end of its lifespan. However, for flat roof repairs, problems like water pooling or bubbling can indicate a comprehensive roof replacement is needed. It’s simply the most cost-effective solution in the long run.
Of course, every project begins with a free comprehensive assessment of your existing roof. We detail any issues, creating a series of recommendations. It’s all part of our exceptional service.

What Our Clients Say
Your Questions Answered
What is roofing repair? Roofing repair is the process of fixing any damage or problems occurring with an existing roof. Common issues include leaks, missing or damaged tiles, problems with the roof flashing, sagging, or just general wear and tear. A very common problem is when older pitched roofs contain black bitumen 1f felt, as this deteriorates it causes all sorts of issues with tile cracks and leaks. Unlike a roof replacement, the primary objective is to prevent water damage and restore the roof to its former condition. Usually, this involves patching up a few tiles.
How much does roofing repair cost? Roof repairs vary in cost, depending on the size of the problem. Generally, flat and felt roof repairs are less expensive than tile roof repairs. However, if you’ve only got a few tiles missing, whereas a flat roof has extensive water damage, then the cost might be much higher for the latter situation. Our team will provide a free no-obligation quote after your home inspection.
Do you offer free quotations for roofing repair? Yes. Before we get started, our team of roofers perform a free, no-obligation inspection and provide you with a full written estimate.

Do you offer roofing repair? Yes. Our roofing repair services cover routine roof maintenance (essential for flat and felt roofs), roof leakage repair, or tile roof repairs. Speak to our team for a more detailed explanation of how we can help.
Do you install dry verge, ridge, hips and valleys? Yes, we also repair and install dry verge, dry ridge and hip and dry valleys.
