Do I need period building roofing in West Clandon?

You may well need it if your older roof has slipped, missing or damaged tiles, or flashing that is missing or damaged. An honest answer, and an honest price, needs the roof seen.

You may well need it if your older roof has slipped, missing or damaged tiles, or flashing that is missing or damaged. An honest answer, and an honest price, needs the roof seen. Until then, here is what to check yourself around your home in West Clandon.

Start from the ground. Bits of broken slate or tile on the path or lawn are a sign the roof has been damaged. If it is safe to get into the loft, look for signs of leaks. A damp patch on a ceiling can point to one too. Please do not climb up, as walking on a roof can crack tiles and hairline cracks can go unnoticed.

Moss on its own rarely needs removing, unless it is blocking gutters or other drainage points. After a storm, speak to your insurer before arranging emergency repairs, and keep the receipts. Never agree to roof work on the doorstep. Take your time and get several quotes.

I am Walter at Clandon Roofing Company Ltd, and I would rather see your roof than guess. To quote, I need a few photos from the ground, what you have noticed in the loft or on the ceilings, and your address. Have a look at my Period building roofing page, then send me those and I will come and see it.
