What Our Customers Have to Say
We’ve helped hundreds of customers with roofing they can
rely on. Here’s what some of them have said:
Janice Gannon

This is the 2nd time we have used this company and yet again the quality of work was excellent. The only thing that stopped me giving 5 stars is that there is no written 10 year guarantee just a verbal promise. Also our eventual bill was higher than the original quote but we appreciated that the job proved to be bigger than James originally thought. Very high standard of workmanship though and we would recommend.

They did a great job of dry verging our gable end. It looks clean and modern now instead of the mess it did look like. The price was very good. All mess tidied up and took away. Would definitely use them again.

Due to our carport roof in bad need of repair, James and his team did an excellent job. So whilst they were on site and with the house roof required attention that was also reroofed. Both have been done to a speedy and excellent standard, with all debris taken away. We could not be more pleased and thankful.

Had James come in to quote a leaking flat roof and to sort out a couple of minor issues with the guttering at my mum’s rental property . He gave a quote which was reasonable and carried out the work professionally and in a timely manner with decent communication throughout the progress of the work. Easy to deal, trustworthy and would recommend working with.
What to Expect from Roof Repair
Roof repair starts with a full visual and structural inspection to find the source of the issue. Common problems include cracked or missing tiles, storm damage, leaking flat roofs, or problems with flashing and gutter joints.
Once diagnosed, we carry out repairs using materials that match or upgrade your current roof system. This may involve replacing tiles, sealing joints, patching membranes, or repairing timber beneath the surface. Each job is carefully managed to ensure weather protection and structural safety.
Repairs are usually completed within a day for standard issues. Larger or more complex jobs may require scaffolding and multiple stages. All work is carried out with attention to detail and respect for your property.

Common Roofing Problems We Repair
Roof repairs often involve the same key issues due to age, weather, and wear. Some of the most common include:
- Tile or slate displacement caused by wind or frost
- Chimney and flashing leaks that allow water into roof spaces
- Flat roof damage, such as cracks or pooling water
- Blocked or broken gutters leading to overflowing water
- Underlay failure which allows moisture into insulation or rafters
Addressing these issues early prevents further damage to ceilings, walls, and structural timber. Regular maintenance can also reduce the need for large-scale roof replacements.

Signs Your Roof Needs Repair
Roof damage often starts small but worsens quickly if not addressed. Knowing the early warning signs can help homeowners avoid bigger repair bills.
1. Water Stains Inside Your Home
Damp patches on your ceiling or walls are often caused by a leak somewhere in the roof. Even if it looks small, it’s a sign that water is getting through your roof’s protective layers.
2. Broken or Missing Roof Tiles
If you notice loose or missing tiles after a storm, it's best to replace them quickly. Exposed areas allow rain to reach the underfelt and rafters, causing rot over time.
3. Sagging Rooflines or Ceilings
A dip in your roofline or inside ceiling may indicate serious structural issues caused by long-term water damage. Prompt inspection is essential.
4. Moss or Plant Growth
Heavy moss can trap moisture, lifting tiles and breaking down materials. It’s often a sign the roof needs attention, especially in shaded areas.
5. Unexplained Energy Bill Increases
If insulation is wet or roofing layers are compromised, you’ll lose more heat from your home. A quick repair could restore thermal performance and save money. Spotting these signs early and arranging roof repair keeps your property safe, dry, and energy-efficient.
How Roof Repairs Are Carried Out in Leicester
Roof repair in Leicester involves more than just replacing a tile. Here’s a simple breakdown of what happens during a typical repair job:
Step 1: Initial Assessment
We start with a detailed inspection of the damaged area, inside and out. This helps us find the root cause, whether it’s loose flashing, blocked gutters, or damage to the underlay.
Step 2: Preparing the Area
If needed, we install temporary coverings or scaffolding to ensure safety and weather protection. We clear debris and prepare tools and materials based on the repair type.
Step 3: Repair Work Begins
For pitched roofs, we often replace tiles or slates and refit any loose ridge lines. If it’s a flat roof, we might apply new patches of felt, sealants, or membrane sheets. For leaking chimneys, we re-flash the joints using lead or modern alternatives.
Step 4: Structural Check
If moisture has affected the wooden decking or rafters, we check for rot and replace sections where necessary. This step is crucial for long-term integrity.
Step 5: Final Testing and Clean-Up
Once the repair is finished, we check for any other weak spots and clear the site of waste. You get a summary of the work done and advice on ongoing roof care. In Leicester, our repairs are built to handle local weather conditions and prevent future damage.

Frequently asked questions
Here are some common questions we hear from homeowners and businesses
looking for roofing:
How do I know if my roof needs repair?
Signs include water stains on ceilings, missing tiles, visible sagging, or damp smells in your loft. Moss growth, blocked gutters, and daylight through roof boards are also common indicators.
Can you repair roofs in bad weather?
We avoid major roof repair during heavy rain or strong wind. However, we can apply temporary coverings and schedule permanent repairs as soon as conditions improve.
How much does a typical roof repair cost?
Prices vary depending on damage size, material, and access needs. We offer free no-pressure quotes so you can make an informed decision with no surprise costs.
Do you provide guarantees for roof repairs?
Yes. All our roof repairs include a written guarantee for workmanship. Materials also come with their own manufacturer warranties.
Will I need to leave my home during the repair?
No. Most roof repairs can be done without disruption inside your home. We’ll let you know in advance if interior access or loft entry is needed.
