Roof Repairs

Roof Repairs in your area

Roof repairs are needed by almost every homeowner at some point — whether it's storm damage, a handful of cracked tiles, a leaking valley, or a chimney flashing that's worked itself loose over the years. Left alone, even a small leak can cause timber decay, insulation damage, and mould inside the property, so it's worth sorting quickly.

We handle all common repair work: replacing broken or slipped tiles or slates, re-bedding and re-pointing ridge tiles, repairing or replacing lead and mortar flashings around chimneys and roof abutments, fixing leaking valleys, and repairing damaged verges and fascias. Before we do anything, we identify exactly where the water is getting in — sometimes the visible damage isn't actually where the leak originates, and fixing the wrong spot wastes money.

Working at height carries real risks, and a poorly executed repair can create new problems — for instance, improperly sealed flashing can direct water into the roof structure rather than away from it. Using a qualified, insured roofer also means the work is done with appropriate scaffolding or a tower rather than a ladder leant against guttering.

When you call us, we'll arrange to visit the property promptly — usually within a few days — carry out a roof inspection and give you a clear written quote. For straightforward repairs like ridge re-pointing or tile replacement, we can often complete the work the same day or within a day or two of quoting. We'll let you know if we find anything else that needs attention while we're up there, without any pressure to spend more.

Roof repair costs in Bury St Edmunds typically range from £150 for minor tile replacement to £800–£1,500 for chimney flashing replacement or full ridge re-bedding.
