Things Stony Stratford customers ask first
Can you find the leak if it's not obvious?+
Almost always. We trace from inside (loft staining, daylight, damp lines) then verify outside. On MK11 roofs the entry point is often a metre or more from the visible stain.
Will the repair last on a Stony Stratford property?+
We spec to the local stock — like-for-like materials, proper mechanical fixings, code 4 or 5 lead at flashings — and back it with a written workmanship guarantee.
Will my insurer accept your Stony Stratford report?+
Yes — we provide photo-documented reports with the cause, scope and quoted repair. We've done this for most major UK insurers on jobs around St Mary Magdalene Church.
