Emergency Roof Repairs When You Need Us Fast

An emergency roof problem is usually one of a handful of things: a big gust has ripped tiles or slates off, a chimney pot has come loose, water is pouring in somewhere it never has before, or a tree branch has come down on the roof. Whatever it is, the first job is stopping more water getting in while we work out the proper fix.

When you call us with an emergency, we'll ask what's happened, whether it's actively letting water in, and whether anything looks unsafe from the ground, like a loose chimney stack or debris hanging over a path. That helps us prioritise and decide what we need to bring with us.

On site, our first move is often to make the roof watertight with a temporary cover, tarpaulin or felt, secured properly so it survives more bad weather rather than blowing off itself. This buys time to plan a permanent repair without the household getting flooded out in the meantime.

Storm damage across Coventry, Solihull, Warwick, Leamington Spa, Rugby, Nuneaton and Kenilworth tends to hit the same weak points: loose ridge tiles, older flashing, and roofs that were already due some maintenance. If your roof was fine last winter but has failed now, age and general wear are usually part of the story.

Once the roof is safe and dry, we'll go through what caused the damage and what a permanent repair involves, with a free written quote so you can decide how to proceed, whether that's through your home insurance or paying for the work directly.

We only class something as a genuine emergency if it's actively causing damage or is unsafe, active leaks, storm damage, or loose materials at risk of falling. For anything less urgent we'll still get you booked in quickly, just through our normal repair scheduling rather than jumping the queue.
