Everything your Willenhall property needs
What we do on roofs around St Anne's and the rest of Willenhall — repairs, replacement, chimneys and roofline.
New Roof Installations
New roof structures from the deck up — underlay, treated battens, covering, flashings and a mechanically fixed ridge, properly ventilated.
Roof Replacements
Complete re-roofing, including the parts nobody sees — the underlay, battens, ventilation and fixings that decide how long the new roof lasts.
Roof Repairs & Leak Detection
Repairs to slipped and cracked tiles, failed flashings, open ridges and anything else letting water in — after we have found the real cause.
Slate & Tile Roofing
Pitched roof coverings in slate and tile, repaired to match where we can and replaced where the fixings have reached their limit.
Chimney Repairs & Leadwork
Repointing, flaunching, rebuilding and the lead flashings and soakers that keep water out where the stack meets the roof.
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 Willenhall
Every quote starts with a survey. These are the things we look at on roofing work in Willenhall, and why each one changes the recommendation.
Structural timber
Where we can see them, we check rafters, purlins and wall plates for rot, woodworm and deflection. A sagging roof line is a structural matter and needs resolving before any new covering goes on.
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.
Slipped, cracked and missing tiles
We count them and note where they sit. A few in one spot is damage; a scatter across the whole roof points at nail fatigue or batten rot, which changes the recommendation completely.
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.
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.
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.

Speak to us today0786 5778332How far is Willenhall from your base?
Willenhall is roughly 2.4 miles south-east of Coventry city centre. That is close enough that a survey can normally be arranged within a few days, and close enough that coming back afterwards is never a problem.
Do you only work in Willenhall, or the surrounding streets too?
Both. Work in Willenhall usually takes us into Stoke Aldermoor (about 0.9 miles away), Binley (about 1.3 miles away), Baginton (about 1.6 miles away) and Lower Stoke (about 1.6 miles away) as well, and we quote for all of them on the same terms. There is no boundary line that changes the price.
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.
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.
How often should a roof be inspected?
Once a year is sensible for most houses, plus a look after any serious storm. An inspection is mostly about the things that fail before the tiles do: ridge and verge mortar, flashings, valleys, the state of the gutters and any slipped or cracked tiles. Catching those is the difference between pointing work and a ceiling repair.
Can you match tiles on an older roof?
Often, yes. Many clay and concrete patterns are still made or available reclaimed, and we would rather source a match than leave an obvious patch. Where an exact match genuinely does not exist, the usual approach is to take sound tiles from a less visible elevation for the front of the house and use the new ones at the back. We will tell you upfront if a repair will be visible.
What is roof flashing and why does it fail?
Flashing is the weatherproofing where the roof meets something else: a chimney, a wall, a valley, a soil pipe. It is usually lead, dressed and tucked into a mortar joint. It fails when the mortar holding it goes, when the lead splits from decades of thermal movement, or when someone has sealed over it with mastic instead of replacing it. Flashings are behind a large share of the leaks we trace.
