Fix Leaking Roof Dulwich
Fixing a leaking roof starts with tracing how water enters and travels through the building. The stain may be some distance from the defect. Tiles, flashings, gutters, rooflights and condensation can all need consideration.
Help narrow down the cause
- Record whether the leak follows rain, wind or particular conditions.
- Note nearby chimneys, walls and roof windows.
- Mention previous repairs and whether they helped.
A repair should address the diagnosed entry point and any affected supporting layers, rather than simply coat the area above the stain.
What a useful repair quotation includes
The proposal should name the defect, the area being repaired and the materials that will connect to the existing roof. Ask whether surrounding coverings and concealed layers are assumed to be sound or have been inspected. If opening the roof reveals more damage, agree how photographs, approval and any price change will be handled before additional work begins.
