Whether you are dealing with a persistent leak or looking to preserve the character of a historic building, we apply our technical expertise to restore your roof to its best condition.
Tracing and Repairing Slate Roof Leaks
Water ingress can often be traced back to subtle failures in the roof covering. In many older Wokingham properties, we frequently encounter nail sickness, where the original fixings have corroded over time, leading to slipped slates that leave the underlay and timbers exposed to the elements. Our approach involves a methodical inspection to identify these faults. We replace damaged or missing slates with carefully matched natural Welsh or Spanish slate, ensuring the repair blends seamlessly with the existing roofline while maintaining full weatherproofing.

If you notice damp patches on your ceilings, light entering your loft space, or debris in your gutters after heavy rainfall, it is wise to have a professional inspection. Neglecting minor issues, such as a single slipped slate or failing leadwork around a chimney, often leads to more significant structural damage to the roof timbers. We are available to assess your roof and determine whether a targeted repair will suffice or if more extensive maintenance is required to prevent further water ingress.

The longevity of a slate roof depends heavily on its secondary components. We specialise in re-dressing aged lead flashings and repairing lead valleys, which are common points of failure during extreme weather. Additionally, we provide ridge tile re-bedding services using traditional mortar techniques to secure your roof against high winds. For older properties with brick chimneys, we also offer professional repointing to address mortar breakdown caused by the freeze-thaw cycles typical of the Thames Valley climate.
