Arrange an inspection if you notice:
Missing, slipped or cracked slates and tiles
Loose flashing around chimneys, walls or junctions
Debris from the covering around your property
Damp patches on ceilings or in the loft
Lifting edges or punctures on flat systems
Sagging sections or visible structural movement
Guttering or roofline components pulled out of position
If individual slates have come away, our guide to handling missing slates explains the next sensible steps.
The right solution depends on the type and extent of the issue. Our work may involve replacing isolated slates or tiles, securing loose materials, correcting flashing, addressing localised water ingress or restoring affected flat coverings.
Where immediate permanent work is not practical, the priority is to reduce further exposure before a longer-term solution is agreed. For wider urgent problems, see our emergency service.
If your property has been affected by severe conditions, the priority is to stay safe and limit further problems without putting yourself at risk.
Recommended first steps include:
Check the exterior from ground level for missing slates, tiles or displaced materials
Look inside the loft and upper rooms for damp patches, staining or water ingress
Move furniture and belongings away from affected areas where practical
Photograph visible issues for your own records and any potential insurance claim
Avoid climbing onto the property or attempting temporary fixes at height
Arrange a professional assessment as soon as possible
If materials are missing or have shifted, our guide to handling missing slates explains what to look for while you wait for professional help.
Some problems can wait for a scheduled inspection, while others need faster attention because they could expose the property or create a safety risk.
You should treat the situation as urgent if you notice:
Active water entering ceilings or the loft
Large sections of covering missing or displaced
Loose materials that could fall from height
Significant sagging or visible structural movement
Damage around chimneys, ridges or exposed junctions
A flat covering that has lifted, torn or opened significantly
Internal electrical areas being affected by water
For urgent situations, our emergency roof repair service is designed to assess the immediate issue and determine the safest next step. We aim to attend urgent call-outs within 24 hours, subject to access, conditions and workload.
Home insurance may cover some sudden, unexpected events, but whether a claim is accepted depends on the cause, the condition of the property and the wording of your individual policy.
Issues caused directly by high winds, falling debris or another sudden event may be treated differently from deterioration that has developed gradually through age, wear or lack of maintenance.
If you think you may need to make a claim:
Check your policy before arranging non-essential work
Take photographs of visible issues where it is safe to do so
Keep notes of when the problem was first noticed
Contact your insurer promptly
Arrange a professional assessment to establish the likely cause and extent
You can read more in our guide to house insurance and roof repairs.
We inspect the visible problem and surrounding areas to establish how far the issue extends and whether the underlying structure appears affected.
You receive a clear explanation of what needs attention. If a localised fix is sufficient, we will say so. If deterioration is widespread, we will explain why a larger section or full renewal may be more sensible.
Once agreed work is complete, the affected area is checked and we explain any further maintenance worth considering.
Localised work is often appropriate when the problem is confined to a small area and the surrounding covering remains serviceable. Examples include several displaced slates, an isolated flashing defect or a small puncture in a flat membrane.
A broader solution may be recommended where there are recurring leaks, multiple weak areas, ageing materials or structural concerns. Read more about repairing only one section.
