How Our Emergency Service Works

When you call, we ask a few quick questions about what has happened, where the water is coming in and how safe the area is. That helps us bring the right materials and equipment. We then give you an idea of when we can arrive and keep you updated if anything changes.

On arrival, we carry out a careful assessment, explain what we have found and talk you through the options before starting any work. Clear communication matters when you are worried about your home.

Emergency repair to a damaged flat roof on a commercial building

What Counts as a Roofing Emergency?

If water is coming in, or part of your roof has become unsafe, it is an emergency. Common reasons people call us include:

  • Active leaks through ceilings, light fittings or walls
  • Storm damage, including lifted or missing tiles and slates
  • Fallen trees or branches damaging the roof
  • Collapsed or loose chimney stacks, flashing or ridge tiles
  • Split or torn flat roof coverings
  • Gutters or roofline sections hanging loose after high winds

What to Do While You Wait for Us

Your safety comes first. Never climb onto a roof yourself, especially in wind, rain or darkness. Instead, there are a few simple steps you can take inside to limit damage while our emergency roofer is on the way.

  • Move furniture, electronics and valuables away from the leak
  • Place buckets or containers to catch dripping water
  • If water is near light fittings or sockets, switch off the electricity at the consumer unit
  • Take photos of the damage for your insurance company
  • Keep people and pets away from any sagging ceiling

During storms, keep an eye on Met Office weather warnings and advice. Knowing when high winds or heavy rain are forecast lets you check gutters and loose items in advance, and gives you time to call us if you spot a problem before the weather arrives.

Roof Leak Repair Croydon Residents Trust

Finding the source of a leak is not always simple, as water can travel along timbers before it shows on a ceiling. Our roofers trace the leak back to its cause, whether that is a cracked tile, failed flashing, a blocked valley or a split in a flat roof, and repair it properly rather than simply covering the symptom.

Common Causes of Sudden Leaks

Many of the emergency roof repairs we carry out follow high winds, which lift tiles and slates or tear at flashing. Blocked gutters and valleys during heavy rain, cracked mortar on ridges and aged flat roof coverings are other frequent culprits.

Making Your Roof Safe

Where a permanent fix cannot be completed straight away, we use temporary measures such as tarpaulins, sheeting or temporary tiles to keep the weather out. We will then arrange a convenient time to return and finish the job.

Permanent Repairs

Once the roof is secure, we complete your emergency roof repairs using quality materials matched to your existing roof. We finish by providing photographs of the completed work so you can see it for yourself.

The work is always carried out to a high standard. They are cheerful, friendly and reliable and leave no mess. The recent job they did – to repair fascia on a flat roof extension was a less straightforward repair and they took time to plan the best action and use the most appropriate materials. We are very pleased with the result.
