Storm Damage and Roof Leaks in Richmond

Natural slate, clay tiles and leadwork are durable, but each fails in its own way under storm conditions. Slates slip when their fixings corrode, clay tiles crack or lift at the edges and lead can tear or pull away from a wall. Each needs a slightly different temporary fix. Ashlar Roofing provides emergency call-outs in Richmond, covering TW9 and TW10 within the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, and we prioritise active leaks and storm damage.

Knowing the material shapes the temporary fix. Missing slates may be covered with sheeting until matching replacements are sourced, while a torn flashing can often be sealed temporarily. Once the property is watertight, we quote for a permanent repair using materials that suit the existing roof. If your home is in a conservation area, Richmond upon Thames Council can confirm whether any change of material needs approval. That way the finished roof looks as it did before the storm.

What's included

What an Emergency Call-Out Covers

The main parts of the job, each listed in your quote.

  • Priority for roofs letting water in now and for storm-damaged roofs, so the most urgent problems are handled ahead of routine work.
  • Temporary weatherproofing, such as sheeting, sealing or refixing loose tiles, to keep rain out until the permanent repair is made.
  • Making safe any loose slates, ridge tiles, chimney pots or flashings that could fall and injure someone or damage the roof below.
  • Checks on the area around the damage, including flashings, valleys and gutters, so the real cause of the leak is found.
  • A written price for the permanent repair, set out for you to agree before that work begins, so you know exactly what it involves.
  • Call-outs for domestic and commercial roofs, covering houses, flats, shops and offices with storm-damaged or leaking roofs.

How it works

How Emergency Roof Repairs in Richmond Is Arranged

What happens from your first call or message to the finished work.

  1. Tell Us What Has Happened

    Call or use the form to describe the leak or damage. Photos sent on WhatsApp help us judge how urgent it is and what materials to bring.

  2. Making the Roof Safe

    Leaking and storm-hit roofs go to the front of the queue. When we arrive, temporary weatherproofing comes first, stopping water getting in and securing anything loose.

  3. Finding the Cause

    Once the roof is secure, we look over the surrounding area to find where water is really entering, then set out the cost of the lasting fix for you to agree.

  4. The Permanent Repair

    We return to complete the agreed repair, then review the completed work with you and confirm everything has been done as agreed.

FAQs

Questions About Emergency Roofers in Richmond

A storm has damaged my roof in Richmond. What happens first?

The first aim is to make the roof safe and watertight with temporary weatherproofing, then inspect fully once conditions allow. You then receive a price for the lasting repair, which goes ahead when you agree it.

What counts as a roofing emergency?

Water coming through a ceiling, tiles or slates blown off in a storm, a chimney or flashing that could fall, or a flat roof that has split open. If water is getting in or something could come loose, treat it as urgent and get in touch.

What details help when booking an emergency roofer in Richmond?

Your address and postcode, where the water is appearing, the type of roof if you know it (tiled, slate or flat) and whether anything is loose or hanging. Photos on WhatsApp let us judge the urgency.

Do you handle emergencies on commercial roofs?

Yes. Ashlar Roofing takes on domestic and commercial work, so emergency call-outs cover shops, offices and blocks of flats as well as houses.
