Repairs that deal with the cause
Connected details checked
We inspect nearby fixings, flashing and underlay rather than treating one symptom.
Suitable access arranged
Our own scaffolding can be planned around high or awkward damaged areas.
Clear evidence provided
Photographs help you understand the defect and inspect the completed repair.
Stop local roof damage from spreading
High winds, heavy rain and ordinary wear can loosen coverings or expose weak roof details. A small gap then gives water room to reach the underlay, timber or ceiling below. We carry out roof damage repairs in Newtownabbey for storm damage, failed components and general deterioration on pitched and flat roofs. We inspect the affected covering rather than simply replacing the first broken piece we see. Nearby fixings, underlay, flashing and junctions may reveal why the failure happened. Once we've identified the defect, we explain whether a focused repair should restore the area or whether deterioration extends further across the roof.
A repair based on the real defect
We begin by inspecting the visible damage and deciding how the area can be reached safely. After checking the roof covering and connected details, we complete the agreed repair and review the finished section. This can involve replacing isolated materials, repairing a flat roof, securing loose components or renewing failed weatherproof details. Preventative maintenance can also deal with wear before it becomes an indoor drip. Where broader decline makes repeated patching poor value, we'll explain why more extensive work should be considered. You receive photographs and a plain account of what we've done.
Frequently asked questions
Can you repair damage caused by strong winds?
Yes. We repair storm damage including displaced coverings, failed fixings and exposed roof details. We first inspect the affected area and nearby materials because wind can loosen more than the one slate or tile visible from ground level.
Will one damaged section require a whole new roof?
Not necessarily. If the damage is local and the surrounding roof remains serviceable, a focused repair may be enough. We recommend broader renewal only when inspection shows widespread deterioration or failure in the underlying roof build-up.
Do you repair flat roofs as well as pitched roofs?
Yes. We carry out flat roof installation and repair as well as work on pitched slate and tile coverings. The repair method depends on the material, the source of the defect and the condition of the surrounding area.
