What we repair
Slipped, cracked and missing tiles and slates. Leaking valleys and verges. Lead flashings at chimneys, abutments and dormers. Ridge and hip tiles that have worked loose. Rotten fascia behind the gutter. Holes where a satellite bracket has been through the covering.
Finding the leak, not guessing at it
Water rarely comes in where the stain is. We work from the loft out, follow the run of the water back up the timbers and find the entry point, then fix that. A repair that is guessed at is a repair you pay for twice. Our roof leak repairs page sets out how we trace one.
Left tidy
Old mortar, broken tiles and debris go with us, gutters get cleared while we are up there, and you get photographs of the finished repair. Small jobs get the same care as big ones, which is what most of our reviews are actually about. If water is coming through the ceiling now, you need an emergency roofer, and the phone is on day and night. For a split or ponding flat roof, see flat roof repairs.
What is included
- Cause found and photographed
- Fixed price before we start
- Slipped tiles, valleys, flashings and ridges
- Leak tracing from inside the loft
- Gutters cleared while we are up there
- Work guaranteed, terms with your quote
How a roof repair is done properly
- Find the cause. Loft first, then the roof. The water mark on your ceiling is where it lands, not where it gets in.
- Photograph it. You see the failed tile, valley, flashing or ridge in the photographs before you agree to anything.
- Fixed price. One written figure for the repair, not an hourly rate.
- Repair. Like-for-like tiles or slates, new lead where the old has failed, and ridges re-bedded or converted to dry ridge.
- Check the rest. While we are up there we look over the rest of the slope and clear the gutters, and photograph anything else worth knowing.
Signs you need a roof repair
- A ceiling stain that grows after rain
- A slipped or broken tile visible from the garden
- Mortar on the lawn or path below the ridge
- Damp on a chimney breast
- Lead flashing lifting away from the wall
- Drips in the loft during wind-driven rain
Repair options we give you
- Single tile or slate: Replaced like for like, with slates refixed on a tingle or re-nailed.
- Ridge and verge: Re-bedded in fresh mortar, or converted to a dry, mechanically fixed system that does not crack.
- Valleys and flashings: Re-formed in new lead dressed into the joint, never sealed over with mastic.
- Section repair: Where one area has failed, that area is stripped and relaid on new battens and membrane, without a full re-roof.
How long it takes
Most roof repairs are a few hours to a day. Leaks are attended the same day or the next where we can, and a repair needing scaffold is booked around the scaffold going up.
What affects the price
- What has failed and how much of it
- Access: ladder, roof ladder or scaffold
- Matching tiles or slates
- Lead or ridge work involved
Our roof repair cost page shows typical ranges. Yours comes as one fixed written price after the free inspection.
Aftercare
Keep the before and after photographs we send you. If the same spot ever gives trouble again, they show exactly what was done.

Work to repair storm damage was carried out at short notice on a Sunday. Replaced facia board and missing tiles at eaves of building. Also re-pointed lead flashings. Work was completed to the highest standard and clear communication and advice was provided throughout. Would recommend to a friend.
5.0/5
AllPro roofing & guttering have been a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Initially they came to fix a leaking dormer roof/part of the main roof. After initial inspection it was clear that further work was required. The team were very transparent about what needed doing, talked me though the issues and gave me time to consider options. Throughout the fixes the team provided constant updates and have been clean / considerate. I would highly recommend AllPro roofing and guttering!

Common questions
How quickly can you come out?
For a leak, usually the same day or the next. For a non-urgent repair, within the week. Call 01908 024436 and we will tell you honestly when we can be there.
How much is a roof repair?
Small repairs are usually a half day and priced as one job, not by the hour. You get the figure before anyone goes up, and it does not move unless we find something you agree to.
Do you repair roofs you did not fit?
Almost always, that is most of our work. If someone else has botched it we will tell you what was done wrong and what it takes to put right.
Is it worth repairing an old roof?
Often yes. If the battens and underlay are sound, a repair buys years for a fraction of a re-roof. If they are not, we show you why in the photographs.
Do you clear the gutters when you repair the roof?
Yes, gutters on the side we are working get cleared while we are up there, because debris from the repair ends up in them.
