A quick guide
Repair or replace?
Every roof is different, but these signs help frame the conversation before the survey.
A repair may be enough when…
- The problem is in one area, such as a few slipped tiles
- The roof covering is otherwise sound
- A leak follows rain from one direction
Replacement is worth discussing when…
- Repairs keep recurring in different places
- Tiles or slates are breaking up across the roof
- The roof timbers or underlay need attention
This guide is general. Your survey report explains what applies to your roof.
