Roof repairs are crucial for maintaining the integrity and longevity of your roof. Neglecting to address minor issues can lead to more extensive and more costly problems in the long run. It’s essential to regularly inspect your roof for signs indicating that your roof needs attention. Identifying the source of damage and finding a reputable contractor to perform the repairs can be challenging. However, it’s essential to invest in regular maintenance and repairs to ensure the safety and stability of your home. A well-maintained roof can also increase your home’s energy efficiency, saving you money on energy bills.

When searching for a contractor, it’s essential to do your research and ask for references. Look for a contractor with a proven track record of high-quality work and positive customer reviews. Our roofing contractors work to the highest standards to perform the work and ensure the repairs are done correctly.

Roof repairs can be a significant expense, but they are necessary to ensure the safety and well-being of your home and family. A damaged roof can leave your home vulnerable to leaks, water damage, and other issues, which can be costly.

At Leicester Roofing Services, our professionals are highly qualified and experienced in roof repairs. We recognise the importance of protecting your home and family from the weather and further damage, and we are dedicated to providing you with the best service possible.

 

 

Roof inspections and roof surveys are crucial components of maintaining the integrity and safety of a home or building. Regular inspections help identify potential issues with the roofing system, such as missing or damaged roof tiles, leaks, or structural problems. By identifying these issues early on, homeowners and building managers can take steps to prevent more severe damage, such as water infiltration or even collapse.

 Additionally, roof surveys are an excellent way to obtain an estimate for any necessary repairs or replacements. Professional roofers will complete the roof inspection to search for possible problem areas and any signs of wear and tear. Additionally, they will measure the roofing components and evaluate their general state. The cost of necessary repairs or replacements can then be accurately estimated using the information provided.

 Conducting a thorough roof inspection is essential for identifying potential problems with the roof and ensuring the safety of your property. Thus, it is crucial to note that a qualified professional roofing contractor should always carry out these inspections. A qualified professional has the knowledge, experience, and tools necessary to properly assess the condition of the roof and identify any issues that may be present.

 During a roof inspection, roofers will visually inspect the entire roof, paying close attention to areas prone to wear and tear, such as valleys, flashing, and penetrations. They will also look for any signs of leaks, damage, and other issues that may affect the roof’s integrity.

 A roof inspection is a more detailed examination of the roof, typically assessing the condition of the roofing materials and evaluating the roof’s overall structural integrity. A qualified professional will take detailed notes, which they will use to create an accurate estimate for any repairs or replacements that the property owner may need.

Facsias, Soffits and Guttering

Maintaining your home’s roof base and the guttering system is very important. Homeowners must keep their gutter, soffits, and fascia boards in good condition to protect the roof line and help prevent roof damage. This system aims to prevent water damage and other weather-related issues from harming your roof and home’s structure.

 Fascia Board

 Fascia boards run along the roof’s edge and are fixed to the roof’s trusses. They support the bottom row of tiles and the guttering. They are made of uPVC, and PVCu, plastic, fibre cement, vinyl, wood, or aluminium which are sturdy, robust materials. Its primary function is to support the guttering system and to prevent water and other elements from getting between the roof tiles. We will also fit a Box end to the ends of the Facia board to protect the outer edges and give the line an excellent finish. These come in different designs to suit your taste. Maintaining the structural integrity of the roof and the house requires Regular maintenance and inspection, which is essential for the plastic fascia board to remain in good shape and offer the necessary home and roof structure protection. 

 Soffits

Soffits run along the underside of the fascia board and are often visible from the ground. They are equipped with soffit vents and play a crucial role in providing ventilation to the roof space, which helps to keep the attic and roof structure dry and free from mould and mildew. In addition to providing ventilation, soffits protect the roof and home structure by preventing water and other elements from entering the attic or roof space. Regular inspection and maintenance of soffits are essential to ensure that they continue to perform their function effectively and that the roof and home structure remain protected.

  Guttering

Guttering is a system of pipes and channels that collect and direct rainwater from the roof to the ground. The purpose of guttering is to prevent water from flowing down the exterior walls of a home, which can cause damage to the foundation, walls, and landscape. The choice of guttering material and style will depend on the local climate, budget, and personal preference. Regular cleaning and guttering maintenance are essential to ensure that it continues to function effectively, and that water is properly directed away from the home. Guttering protects the roof and home structure by preventing water damage and other weather-related elements. A properly functioning guttering system will keep the ceiling, walls, and foundation of a home dry inside, helping to extend the life of these essential components.

At Leicester roofing services, we understand how important it is to ensure your chimney stack is kept in top condition. Because the chimney is positioned at the highest point of your property, it often takes the brunt of weathering and wears over time. Chimney repairs are essential to maintain the structure of your roof and prevent any seepage or further damage from occurring.

Some of our chimney repairs and maintenance services include but are not limited to:

  •  Lead flashing
  • Rebuilding chimney stacks 
  • re-capping pots.
  • Flaunching
  • Chimney repointing
  • Chimney removal
  • Chimney rebuilds
  • Chimney stack repairs

Chimney Stack

One of the most common ways your chimney stack can deteriorate is when the mortar between the bricks starts to deteriorate over time and then begins to crumble and fall away. When this happens, it not only looks unsightly but can also seriously weaken the structural integrity of your chimney stack. This requires immediate attention to ensure the safety of your property and the surrounding areas.

Repointing a chimney

When repointing a chimney, we begin with a full chimney inspection to asses the required repairs. We will remove the damaged mortar that has worn away and is crumbling between the bricks. We will then replace this with new mortar and repoint the chimney to help prevent any further weathering and deterioration.

Flaunching

Chimney Flaunching is the strong mortar that holds your chimney pots in place. This provides a formidable waterproof barrier that protects the inside and outside of your chimney stack. It also aids and keeps your home dry. When damage occurs due to failed flaunching, it is usually best to replace it with grit and cement or a lime-based mortar. Always seek professional advice from a local roofing contractor.

Leadwork is a bespoke trade that has been around for centuries, dating back to antiquity. Lead flashing is one of the most common types of leadwork used in construction and building maintenance. Lead flashing is a strip of lead metal used to seal joints between two different materials. Lead flashing prevents water from entering the joint, which can cause damage to the structure or material if left unchecked.

The lead must be installed correctly by a qualified company due to its malleability, meaning it needs regular checking and maintenance to ensure it’s doing its job perfectly. The longevity and durability of lead make it an ideal choice for many applications, but only when expertly applied by a professional craftsman, such as our team here at Leicester Roofing Services.

 Lead sheeting is versatile and can be on a variety of buildings, from terraced houses to churches and cathedrals. 

Lead flashing is available in various thicknesses, allowing it to be used for different purposes, such as forming weathering details or gutter linings. Lead flashing can also be coloured or patterned to help blend into the existing architecture. The British standard for lead as a material is BS EN 12588. This standard relates to its thickness consistency and the formation of a knitted grain

Leicester Roofing Services is a team of experienced professionals specialising in flat roofing. We offer a comprehensive range of services, from flat roof repairs to extensive commercial flat roofing installation systems. Our flat roof services include:

  •  Fibreglass roof
  • Flat roof construction
  • Liquid rubber roofing
  • Commercial flat roofing
  • Asphalt flat roofs
  • Roofing felt system.
  • Flat roof repair
  • Rubber roofing

Many people choose flat roofing due to its various benefits. One of the benefits of flat roofing is that it is usually more cost-effective than pitched roofing. It does not require complicated structural components like trusses and rafters. Flat roofs have a larger surface area than pitched roofs, making them suitable for areas that need more insulation or solar panels. Flat roofing materials include asphalt shingles, membranes, rubber, and EPDM.

Flat roof repair often involves using roofing felt, the most popular material. Roofing felt is a cost-effective solution that shields the underlying structure from water damage and provides thermal insulation against extreme temperatures. Typically, repairing a flat roof involves addressing worn-out or torn felt sections. Flat roof repairs may also entail adding extra layers of felt, patching holes, and sealing seams to strengthen weak spots.

They require regular maintenance to ensure that flat roofs function correctly and protect against environmental factors. Such upkeep may entail cleaning gutters, examining for signs of damage such as cracks or loose shingles, fixing leaks, and clearing debris from the roof’s surface. Routine inspections should be conducted to spot any indications of wear or damage to prolong the lifespan of your flat roof and prevent costly repairs down the line.

Flat roofing presents various benefits that appeal to numerous homeowners and commercial property owners. Flat roofs offer more excellent insulation and are more cost-effective to install compared to pitched roofs. Maintaining your flat roof is crucial to keep it in optimal condition. Using materials such as roofing felt and conducting regular inspections can protect your flat roof from environmental factors.
