Coastal wind drives rain horizontally under coverings, and salt-laden air corrodes fixings and metalwork faster than anything further north in the county. The housing stock is dense and varied: rows of Victorian terraces in the older districts, interwar semis in the suburbs, and post-war rebuilding across areas affected during the war. We work across the city and out towards Eastleigh, and the pattern of faults is consistent: wind uplift at edges, corroded fixings, and flashing failures at the many junctions terraced roofs create. We work throughout Southampton and the surrounding area, including Shirley, Portswood, Bitterne, Woolston, Millbrook. Normal working hours are 8am–5pm and we respond outside them wherever we can; for emergency call-outs we aim to be with you within 3 hours, depending on your location and our availability. ### Property types we work on in Southampton - Victorian and Edwardian terraces with slate roofs, party-wall junctions and shared valleys - 1930s suburban semis with clay tiles and exposed verges - Post-war housing with concrete tiles now on original felt - Converted flats and HMOs where landlords need work evidenced with photographs ## Free quote in Southampton Tell us what's happening and we'll come and look: no charge, no obligation. ## What Southampton calls us for most ### Roof repairs in Southampton Leaks traced, fixed and photographed Wind-driven rain finds every weak junction on a terrace roof; we trace the actual entry point rather than patching the stain. More detail ### Ridge repointing and re-bedding in Southampton Ridge tiles re-bedded and re-cemented Coastal wind attacks the ridge line first, and failed bedding here turns into missing ridge tiles quickly. More detail ### Broken and slipped tiles in Southampton Tiles and slates replaced Salt-corroded nails let tiles slip long before the tiles themselves fail: a cheap fix caught early. More detail ### Roof cleaning and moss removal in Southampton Moss cleared, tiles checked Mild, damp coastal conditions grow moss and lichen fast, especially on north-facing city roofs. More detail ### All services available in Southampton ### Roof repairs in Southampton Leaks traced, fixed and photographed We find where the water is actually getting in, fix it properly, and show you photographs of the problem and the repair. More detail ### Full roof replacements in Southampton New roofs with a 20-year workmanship guarantee A complete strip and re-roof using quality materials, with a 20-year workmanship guarantee and the site left clean every day. More detail ### Felt and batten replacement in Southampton Re-felting and re-battening Perished felt and tired battens replaced so your tiles sit on a sound, watertight deck instead of a failing one. More detail ### Roof cleaning and moss removal in Southampton Moss cleared, tiles checked Moss and debris cleared off the roof, gutters left clear, and any broken tiles spotted while we are up there. More detail ### Broken and slipped tiles in Southampton Tiles and slates replaced Cracked, slipped and missing tiles and slates replaced and re-seated before a small gap turns into a ceiling stain. More detail ### Ridge repointing and re-bedding in Southampton Ridge tiles re-bedded and re-cemented Loose ridge tiles lifted, re-bedded and repointed so the most exposed line on your roof stops letting water past. More detail ### Roof windows and Velux in Southampton Velux installation and repair Roof windows installed and repaired, flashed and sealed correctly so the opening stays as watertight as the roof around it. More detail ### Emergency roof repairs in Southampton Aiming to be with you within 3 hours Storm damage and active leaks made safe fast. Normal hours are 8am–5pm and we respond outside them wherever we can. More detail ### Free roof inspections in Southampton Photographic reports where required A proper look at the roof at no charge, with photographs where required, so you can see the condition for yourself. More detail ## Roof problems we see again and again in Southampton ### Salt air and fixing corrosion Nails, clips and metalwork corrode faster near the coast. That is why Southampton roofs so often shed tiles that are themselves in perfect condition: the tile did not fail, the thing holding it did. Re-fixing one slipped tile in that situation is fine as a repair, but if several have gone across a slope it is a sign the whole fixing generation is at the end of its life. ### Wind uplift on exposed elevations Coastal wind gets under coverings at edges: verges, eaves, ridges and hips. Once it has a purchase it peels, which is how a single lifted tile becomes a stripped section in one night. Properly bedded ridges and sound verge detailing are the difference between a noisy night and a repair bill. ### Terraced roofs and shared junctions Terraces bring party-wall junctions, shared valleys and long unbroken runs of covering. Water entering at one point can appear several properties along, which makes a proper inspection essential rather than optional. We are used to working on terraces and to evidencing what we found with photographs: useful when responsibility is shared between neighbours or with a landlord. ## Why Southampton homeowners call us We are owner-operated, so the person who quotes your roof is the person responsible for it.
