Roof Leak Repair in Buckinghamshire
A roof leak is rarely where the stain appears. We trace water back to its real entry point and fix it properly — not just patch the ceiling underneath.
- Same-week leak tracing
- Slipped & cracked tile replacement
- Lead flashing renewal
- Valley & abutment repairs
- EPDM patch & seam repairs
- Internal damp diagnosis
Why most roof leaks are misdiagnosed
Water travels. A stain in the corner of a bedroom often starts metres away — usually at a chimney flashing, slipped tile or split valley. We climb up, look properly, and find the source before we quote.
Common causes we find
On Buckinghamshire roofs the same handful of issues come up again and again.
- ▸Cracked or slipped concrete tiles (1970s estates)
- ▸Perished lead flashings at chimneys and abutments
- ▸Failed mortar in valleys and verges
- ▸Splits in old felt flat roofs over extensions
- ▸Blocked gutters causing overshoot under the eaves
What a proper repair looks like
We replace like-for-like where possible, use Code 4 or 5 lead at chimneys and abutments, and give a written guarantee on the repair. No silicone-and-hope jobs.
FAQs
Can you find a leak you can't see from inside?+
Yes — we work backwards from the stain, checking flashings, tile courses, valleys and any flat roof junctions above the affected area.
How much does a typical leak repair cost?+
Most single-point repairs (a few slipped tiles, a length of flashing, a patch on a felt roof) fall between £150 and £450. Larger flashing renewals are quoted after inspection.
Will you guarantee the repair?+
Yes — every repair is covered by a written workmanship guarantee. If water comes through the same spot again, we come back.
