Leaking roofs
Leaks may arise from roof coverings, junctions, flashings, valleys, penetrations or drainage. Inspection should focus on the surrounding roof rather than only the internal stain.

Find the cause before repairing the symptom.
A visible damp patch or roof leak does not always enter or sit directly beneath the roof defect, rainwater can travel along underlay, timbers or masonry before it appears inside a property; rainwater finds its own route. A perfect roof repair therefore begins by identifying the actual entry point of the water ingress.
A proper inspection is carried out, and for high level roof inspections a drone is used. Once the water ingress source is identified, a free no obligation quote is provided and once accepted, Jakeman Roofing Ltd undertakes the quoted repairs

USEFUL INFORMATION
What this service covers
Broken or slipped tiles
Displaced and damaged tiles can expose the layers below to wind-driven rain. Matching replacements and secure fixing help restore the roof covering.
Valley repairs
Valleys carry concentrated rainwater and can fail through cracking, movement, debris or defective adjoining tiles. Repair details depend on the valley construction.
Ridges and verges
Loose ridge tiles, deteriorated mortar and exposed verge details should be assessed before movement allows further water entry or creates a safety concern.
Leadwork and flashings
Flashings around chimneys, walls and roof junctions help keep vulnerable areas weatherproof. Splits, lifting or poor detailing can allow leaks.
Flat roof repairs
Local splits, failed laps and damaged edge details may be repairable, but the age and overall condition of the covering and deck will also be considered.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Questions about
roof repairs
Every roof and property is different. Contact Jakeman Roofing Ltd for advice based on the condition of your roof.
Can a small roof leak be repaired?
Many isolated defects can be repaired, depending on access and the condition of the surrounding roof. An inspection helps identify whether the problem is local or more widespread.
When would you recommend not to repair?
It may be more cost effective for a property owner to have a new felt roof and decking installed rather than patch up an old roof. There is also the added benefit of our <strong>10-year guarantee</strong> on new work.
