Emergency Roof Repair in Knowle
Water coming through the ceiling, tiles in the garden after a storm, a chimney pot that has moved. Ring us free and we aim to be with you the same day to make it safe and stop the water.
What counts as a roofing emergency
Active leaks
Water coming through a ceiling or down a wall. We find the entry point and make it watertight, then come back to do the permanent repair.
Storm damage
Slipped or missing tiles, lifted ridges and loose verges after high winds. On exposed slopes facing the prevailing weather, a single gale can move several courses.
Chimney damage
A leaning stack, a loose pot or fallen flaunching can be a danger to people below. We make it safe first.
Flat roof failures
A split or lifted membrane on an extension can let a lot of water in quickly. A temporary cover buys time until the roof can be replaced.
While you wait for us
Stay safe
Do not go on the roof or up a ladder in wind or rain. If anything has fallen or looks unstable, keep people away from that side of the house.
Catch the water
Buckets and towels under drips. If a ceiling is bulging with water, keep clear of it and turn off electrics in that area if water is near fittings.
Take photos
Pictures of damage inside and out help us and help any insurance claim.
