Roof Repairs in Preston

Roof Repairs for Preston homes

In Preston, Victorian and Edwardian terraces fill the inner areas, with larger villas in Fulwood and Ashton and inter-war and modern estates around the city. Roofs here are mostly stone slate and Welsh slate on the older properties and concrete tiles on the newer ones, and the most common call-outs are for slipped slates, loose ridge tiles and tired flashings. Preston catches rain rolling off the Bowland fells and the westerlies funnelled up the Ribble estuary, which tests every ridge, valley and flashing. Most of those faults can be put right with a well-made repair, as long as it is done with matching materials and proper fixings rather than a tube of sealant.

Around Preston and the Ribble Valley, common repairs range from slipped slates on Victorian terraces to failed valleys and chimney flashings on older stone properties.

Every repair starts with photographs, so you can see exactly what we have found before any work starts. If a repair is the right answer, we will say so. If the roof is past the point where repairs make sense, we will tell you that honestly too.
