Roofing problems don't always give warning.
A sudden leak or storm-damaged roof can be worrying. The important thing is to protect people, avoid further risks and get the issue assessed.
We can discuss missing or displaced tiles, damaged flashing, water ingress and other urgent roofing concerns. Share the location, visible damage and any photographs taken safely from the ground.
