Roof Repairs in Stratford

A roof leak rarely appears directly below the hole. Water runs down the underlay, along battens and rafters, and drips onto a ceiling some distance away, so the stain is a clue rather than the answer. Chasing the stain alone often leads to repairs in the wrong place, and the leak carries on. Ashlar Roofing traces and repairs roof leaks in Stratford, across E15 and E20 and the London Borough of Newham, on homes and commercial buildings.

We work back from the stain, checking the loft where possible and the roof outside: tiles, slates, ridges, flashings, valleys and the gutter line. Once the entry point is found, the repair is usually straightforward, such as replacing a cracked tile, dressing new lead or clearing a blocked valley. If the source turns out to be a gutter or a neighbouring roof rather than your own covering, we explain that before quoting. You agree the quote before the work is booked.
