Roofing in Spalding
Spalding town is Georgian and Victorian brick with tall chimney stacks, and those stacks take everything the fen wind throws at them. Exposed on three sides, often rebuilt at some point in cement, they crack at the flaunching and then let water straight down into the bedroom ceiling below. Half the leaks we get called to in town turn out to be a stack rather than the roof.
Out of town it is bungalows and low, wide roofs on flat open ground. Long gutter runs that silt up with field dust and then overflow, and a lot of flat roofed extensions and garages with no shelter from the wind at all. Nothing here is protected by a hill, so the weather hits everything square on.
Our yard is on Crowland Road, Peterborough, about 12 miles away, so getting to Spalding is a short run for us.
Chimney repair
Flat roof re-covered
Roofline and guttering renewedYou can, and we make the roof good over it. Plenty of people keep the stack for the look of the street and just have it repointed and re-flashed. Both are sensible, it is a question of budget and how the house looks without it.
Guards help on the runs under trees, and getting the falls right helps more. A lot of old gutter runs sag between brackets and hold water at the low spot, which is where the silt collects.
Out on the fen it always matters. We fix the edge trims and upstands properly rather than relying on adhesive alone, because a lifted edge in a gale takes the whole sheet with it.
Ring Stanley and describe what the roof is doing. He will tell you straight whether it needs a repair, a section replacing, or nothing at all yet.
