Roof Maintenance in Farnham, Surrey

Let’s be honest, nobody likes spending money on their roof. However, most homeowners we speak to in Farnham tell us they’d much rather pay for a quick maintenance check than a full structural repair. Think of a roof inspection like an MOT for your house. We’ll climb up there and check the bits you can’t see from the ground, like the valley where two roof slopes meet. These are notorious spots for debris to build up, leading to water backing up under your tiles. By catching a slipped slate or a cracked verge early, we can fix it in minutes, preventing water from rotting your timbers or ruining your insulation. It's about protecting your biggest asset and giving you total peace of mind when the Southdown winds start to howl.

Have you noticed green clumps appearing on your driveway after a storm? That’s usually a sign that moss has taken hold on your roof tiles. Because Farnham is so beautifully wooded, moss growth is a really common problem here. It might look charmingly 'country,' but moss acts like a sponge, holding onto moisture right against your tiles. When that water freezes in winter, it expands and can actually crack your tiles or pop the pointing out of your ridge tiles. We don’t use aggressive pressure washers that can damage the surface of your roof; instead, we offer careful manual removal followed by a professional biocidal treatment. This doesn't just clear the mess; it stops the spores from coming back, keeping your roof looking sharp and staying healthy for much longer.

Your gutters and chimneys are the unsung heroes of your home's exterior. When gutters get blocked with leaves from the Surrey Hills, water overflows and runs down your walls, which is the fastest way to get rising damp. During our maintenance visits, we make sure your fascias and soffits are solid and that your guttering is flowing freely. We also pay close attention to the abutment—the spot where the roof meets the chimney stack. We check the flashings (those lead strips) to ensure they haven't pulled away or cracked. If the mortar on your chimney pots is looking a bit crumbly, we can repoint it there and then, ensuring everything is secure before the next big storm hits.
