Roof Repairs

Leaks, slipped tiles and storm damage don’t fix themselves. Mastershield diagnoses the actual cause of the problem and repairs it properly, not just patches the spot where the water’s coming through.

Fixing the cause, not the symptom

Most roof leaks don’t start where the damp patch appears on the ceiling. Water tracks along battens and rafters before it shows up inside, so a repair that only covers the visible spot rarely lasts. We trace the fault back to its source before we touch a single tile.

Whether it’s a handful of slipped tiles after high wind, a cracked ridge, a failing valley or a slow leak that’s been going on for months, we inspect the whole roof area around the fault, not just the point of damage, so we’re not back out again in six weeks.

Common questions

How quickly can you get to a leaking roof?

We prioritise active leaks and storm damage and aim to inspect urgent cases within a day or two of getting in touch, weather and access permitting.

Can you match tiles on an older roof?

Yes, wherever possible we source a matching tile, slate or colour so the repair blends into the existing roof rather than standing out as a patch.

Do I need a full re-roof or just a repair?

Not usually. Most leaks and storm damage are fixable as a targeted repair. We’ll only recommend a full re-roof if the underlying structure or covering is genuinely past its working life.
