A small roof problem rarely stays small. Because water always finds a way in, a slipped tile or a bit of failed flashing can soon lead to damp, stained ceilings and rotten timbers.

The signs are often easy to spot from the ground. Look out for tiles that have slipped or cracked, damp patches on an upstairs ceiling, or daylight showing through the roof space.

A lot depends on the age of your roof and how widespread the damage is. An older roof with several problems may need more than a patch, while a younger roof with one fault is usually a quick fix.

We carry out roof repairs of every kind across Reading and the Thames Valley, from a single tile to storm damage across a whole roof. We start by finding the actual cause, then fix that, not just the symptom you can see.

We fully insure and guarantee every repair we carry out. However, if a repair would be a false economy, we will always say so and explain why a re-roof might serve you better.

If you're curious about pricing, our guide on what affects the price of a roof repair explains it plainly. For example, it also covers how to choose between a repair and a full replacement when damage runs deep.

Catching problems early makes a real difference, since it helps to know how often a roof should be inspected. Moss is a common cause of damage too, and our guide covers how to remove moss from a roof safely.

Whoever you hire, it pays to check them out first. Our guide to choosing a trustworthy roofer covers the questions worth asking before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

How much do roof repairs cost in Reading? +
It depends entirely on the problem — a single slipped tile is a small job, while widespread storm damage costs more. We give you a fixed written price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
Why is my roof leaking? +
Common causes are slipped or cracked tiles, failed flashing around chimneys and valleys, blocked or overflowing gutters, and worn mortar. We trace the leak to its actual source rather than guessing, so the repair holds.
Can you attend quickly if my roof is leaking now? +
Yes. We prioritise leaks and storm damage, and can usually make a roof temporarily watertight fast before arranging the permanent repair.
Should I repair or replace my roof? +
If the roof is generally sound and the problem is localised, a repair is the sensible option. If it's near the end of its life or failing in several places, re-roofing is often better value. We'll give you an honest recommendation.
Do you guarantee your repairs? +
Yes — all our work is fully insured and comes with a workmanship guarantee.
