Roofing services FAQ

Questions about repairs, thatching and reroofing.

Can you repair only one damaged section?

Where the surrounding roof remains serviceable, localised repairs may be possible. An assessment helps determine the sensible scope.

When should a thatch roof be rethatched?

Visible thinning, recurring leaks, loose material and widespread weathering can indicate that more than a small repair is needed.

Can you reroof over an existing structure?

Some structures can accept lightweight reroofing systems, subject to their condition, pitch and project requirements.

Which roof option needs less maintenance?

Stone-coated steel and metal systems generally require less specialist maintenance than natural thatch, although every roof still needs inspection and care.
