Roof and Gutter Repairs
Worrying about the cost of roof repairs often prompts homeowners to use do it yourself skills to fix a leaking roof. It's a course of action that can actually lead to much greater expenses.
Fix Roof Leak A pitched or flat roof can be damaged by storms, extreme seasonal temperatures, internal air pressure, ageing and vandalism. Loose tiles or splits in roofing felt allow excess moisture to seep into the structure causing timber joists to rot. If a gutter repair is left unchecked overflowing rainwater leads to damp within the home and structural damage including weakened foundations. Carrying out minor roof repairs without expert knowledge makes it difficult to assess the true extent of the damage. Identifying Repairs in a Leaking Roof Spotting the exterior displacement of roofing tiles, cracks in felt or rubber roofing and peeling chimney flashing is relatively easy. Aligning water marks on ceilings or mould on joists to a leak in a pitched roof is difficult because the water can run some distance from the source. Noticeable deterioration can even be the result of several leaks contributing to one point of damage. Our experienced roofers know exactly how to locate leaks to assess the size of the repair. Hazardous asbestos in old roofs can also be quickly identified. Cost Minor repairs such as replacing loose tiles are inexpensive but without the necessary experience can be just the opposite. Natural slates are difficult to work with and can easily break when walked on or incorrectly struck. Even shingles of roofing felt need to be nailed into place properly. DIY mistakes can turn a small repair into a large costly one. |
