Emergency Roofing in Hertfordshire and North London

There are many reasons for requiring an emergency roofer. As one of the region’s best-established roofing companies, we can handle them all. Here are some of the more common emergency roofing repairs we come across.

Missing slates

Whether blown off in the wind, or slipped due to old mortar crumbling away, missing slates can cause serious leaks. Fortunately, it is a fairly simple job for an experienced emergency roofer to repair. First we replace any broken or missing tiles, then we perform a quick check of the surrounding slates, to ensure they are secure.

Storm and puncture damage

Puncture damage is when some sort of object makes it through the tiles or slate, puncturing the waterproof layer below. In the UK, the most common cause of this is falling overhead branches as the result of storm damage. Our emergency roofers will install new waterproofing and replace any broken tiles to solve this problem.

Cracked leadwork

The leadwork is what seals the gap between your tiles and any joints or angles in your roof. This can include chimney stacks, Velux windows, ventilation points, and more. If the lead is cracked or otherwise deteriorated, that seal is compromised, leading to leaks in your roof. This is another problem easily fixed by our emergency roofers.

From a quick fix to a quality finish

It is the nature of an emergency roofing call-out to get the hole patched and sealed as soon as possible. This often done in the dark, during bad weather conditions. At AM Roofing, we perform an effective, yet temporary fix on-the-spot. We can then return within a day or two to complete the job to our normal, professional standards.

FAQ

What counts as a roofing emergency?

A roofing emergency is any situation where the property is exposed to further damage or there is a risk to safety. Storm damage, large leaks, fallen branches or sections of roof that have become unstable should all be dealt with as soon as possible to prevent the problem from getting worse.

Should I go onto the roof to inspect storm damage?

No. Even if the damage appears minor, walking on a roof after bad weather can be dangerous. Broken tiles, weakened timbers and slippery surfaces aren’t always obvious, so it’s much safer to assess the damage from ground level until it can be inspected properly.

Can heavy rain make an existing roof problem worse?

Yes. Damage that has gone unnoticed during dry weather can quickly become apparent after prolonged or heavy rainfall. Water can enter through small gaps in the roof covering, making what was once a minor issue more noticeable.

What should I do if water is coming into my property?

If it’s safe to do so, move furniture and electrical items away from the affected area and use containers to catch any dripping water. Avoid climbing onto the roof yourself, especially during poor weather, and arrange for the damage to be assessed as soon as possible.
