Everything your Edgwick property needs
The roofing work we carry out on Edgwick properties, from leak tracing and tile repairs to complete re-roofing.
New Roof Installations
Complete new roofs on extensions, garages, outbuildings and new build, designed and built to current fixing and ventilation standards.
Roof Replacements
Full strip and re-roof with new underlay, battens, flashings and dry-fixed ridges, in your existing covering or a new one.
Roof Repairs & Leak Detection
Tracing leaks to their actual source and fixing them properly, rather than sealing the nearest thing to the damp patch.
Slate & Tile Roofing
Natural slate, clay and concrete tile work — repairs, matching, and full coverings laid to suit the pitch.
Chimney Repairs & Leadwork
Chimney work from repointing and new flaunching to full rebuilds, plus capping and ventilating stacks that are no longer used.
Fascias, Soffits & Guttering
Roofline and rainwater goods, renewed together with roof work so the scaffold is paid for once rather than twice.

What we check on a property in Edgwick
Every quote starts with a survey. These are the things we look at on roofing work in Edgwick, and why each one changes the recommendation.
Ridge and hip mortar
We check every ridge and hip for cracked, missing or drummy mortar. It is the most common failure on an otherwise sound roof and the one most likely to become dangerous in a gale.
Chimney stack condition
We look at the flaunching on top, the pointing, the brickwork for spalling, and whether a redundant stack is capped and ventilated. A chimney is a wall standing in the weather on all four sides.
Insulation depth and position
While we are in the loft we note the insulation. It affects condensation risk and ventilation requirements, and if the roof is coming off it is the obvious moment to put it right.
Solar panels and roof fittings
Panels, aerials, vents and old satellite brackets all penetrate or load the covering. We check the fixings and the weatherproofing around them, and plan how they come off and go back if the roof is being stripped.
Moss and organic growth
We note how much there is and where. Heavy moss means water is being held against the tiles and gutters are probably taking the debris, and it also tends to mark the shaded, slowest-drying part of the roof.
Gutters, falls and downpipes
We check that gutters run to the outlet, that joints are not weeping and that downpipes discharge properly. Overflowing gutters soak fascias and walls, and the damage usually shows up indoors before anyone looks up.

Speak to us today0786 5778332What else is near Edgwick that you cover?
Edgwick sits next to Foleshill (about 0.2 miles away), Courthouse Green (about 0.5 miles away), Little Heath (about 0.7 miles away) and Stoke Heath (about 0.8 miles away). We work across the whole of that cluster, which is part of why we can usually get to a survey quickly — we are often already nearby.
How quickly can you get to Edgwick?
Quickly — it is about 1.7 miles north-east of the city centre. Short distances are the main reason we can offer same-week surveys and come back promptly if something needs a second look.
What happens during a full re-roof?
Scaffold goes up, the old covering and battens come off, and the roof structure is inspected properly for the first time in decades. New underlay and treated battens go on, then the covering, new or salvaged. Flashings, valleys and ridges are renewed, the ridge is mechanically fixed, and ventilation is brought up to standard. On a typical house it is a matter of days rather than weeks, weather permitting.
Is moss on the roof a problem?
It is not harmless. Moss holds water against the tiles, which matters in frost, and it breaks off and blocks gutters and valleys. It should be removed carefully — scraped and brushed, not blasted. A pressure washer strips the surface off concrete tiles, drives water under the laps and takes years off the roof. We have replaced tiles that were fine until they were jet-washed.
Water is coming in around the chimney. What causes that?
Nearly always the chimney itself rather than the roof. The usual suspects are perished flaunching on top, open or eroded pointing letting water into the brickwork, failed stepped flashing and soakers where the stack passes through the roof, or a missing chimney tray. Each needs a different fix, so the first job is working out which it is.
What is dry fix, and why does everyone mention it now?
Dry fix means ridge, hip and verge tiles held by mechanical fixings and a weatherproof system instead of being bedded in mortar alone. Mortar shrinks, cracks and eventually lets go, which is why loose ridge tiles are such a common call-out. Since the 2014 revision of BS 5534 mortar on its own is no longer an acceptable fixing for new work, so a re-roof should include a mechanically fixed ridge.
My ridge tiles look loose. Is that urgent?
Treat it as urgent. A ridge tile that has lost its mortar bed is heavy, high up and has nothing holding it down in a gale. Beyond the obvious danger, an open ridge line lets water straight into the roof space along its whole length. Re-bedding and mechanically fixing a ridge is a relatively contained job compared with what a displaced one can cost.
