Fast, Accurate Leak Detection & Repair
Roof leaks rarely show up where the water enters - it can travel along timbers before appearing as a stain on the ceiling. We trace leaks properly before we start any repair work.
Common causes we find across Merthyr Tydfil properties include failed flashing, blocked or damaged valleys, perished felt and slipped tiles - each needs a different fix.
Once we’ve found the source, we give you a fixed-price repair quote and a written explanation of the cause, which is useful if you need to make an insurance claim.

Common Causes of Roof Leaks
The usual suspects when a roof starts letting water in.
Failed Chimney Flashing
Cracked or lifted lead around a chimney is one of the most common leak points.
Blocked or Damaged Valleys
Debris or splits in a valley can send water sideways under the tiles.
Perished Roofing Felt
Old felt beneath the tiles breaks down and stops keeping water out.
Slipped or Cracked Tiles
Even a single gap in the tiling can be enough to let water through.
Blocked Guttering
Overflowing gutters can force water back up under the roof edge.
Condensation in the Loft
Sometimes what looks like a leak is actually condensation from poor ventilation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about roof leak repairs in Merthyr Tydfil.
Why is my roof leaking even though the tiles look fine?

In most cases, yes – once we’ve found the source, a targeted repair is usually all that’s needed.
Will you provide a report for my insurance claim?
Yes – we can provide photos and a written report explaining the cause of the leak and the repair carried out.
How quickly can you stop an active leak?
We aim to get to active leaks quickly and can fit temporary weatherproofing the same day where needed.
