Professional Slate Roof Repairs in Amersham
High class roofing provides specialised care for slate roofing across Amersham and the surrounding Thames Valley. Whether you reside in a characterful period property within a local conservation area or a home featuring natural slate accents, our team offers the technical expertise required to maintain these traditional rooflines. Led by Jimmy Frankham, we focus on identifying the true source of water ingress to ensure your home remains protected against the elements.
Identifying and Fixing Slipped Slates
One of the most common issues we encounter on older properties is known as nail sickness. Over time, the fixings that hold your slates in place can corrode and perish, leading to slipped or loose slates that leave your roof timbers vulnerable to the weather. Our approach involves carefully sourcing high-quality Welsh or Spanish slate that matches the existing profile of your roof, ensuring a seamless repair that respects the original aesthetics of your building.

Why is Expert Leadwork Essential for Slate Roofs?
Slate roofs rely heavily on well-executed leadwork to stay watertight at critical junctions. Our team specialises in dressing lead flashings, repairing valley gutters, and installing side soakers that prevent moisture from tracking into the structure. If you notice damp patches appearing near your chimney stack or along roof valleys, it is often a sign that the leadwork has degraded or the mortar has begun to fail. We use traditional techniques to restore these seals, which is essential for properties subject to strict local planning guidelines.

01256 639416Maintaining Historic Chimney Stacks and Ridges
The durability of a slate roof is often tied to the condition of its ridge tiles and chimney stacks. Freeze-thaw cycles and high wind gusts can cause the mortar bedding on your ridge tiles to crack, creating a path for water. We provide professional ridge tile re-bedding services and structural chimney repointing to stabilise these elements. By addressing mortar breakdown and brick erosion early, we help prevent more costly damage to your internal ceilings and roof structure.
