How We Work, Start to Finish

How do I know if I have a chimney leak?

A chimney leak can show several warning signs, including damp patches on ceilings or walls, water stains near the fireplace, peeling paint, musty odours, or visible moisture around the chimney breast. You may also notice damaged mortar joints or loose flashing after heavy rain. If left untreated, even a small leak can lead to costly structural damage, so it’s best to arrange a professional inspection as soon as possible.

Lead flashing can fail due to age, poor installation, extreme weather, or movement in the building over time. Cracks, lifting edges, and worn sealant allow water to penetrate the roof structure. Our experienced team can inspect your flashing, carry out durable repairs, or replace it with high-quality leadwork that provides long-lasting protection.

Yes. We repair all types of flat roof leaks across Ipswich, including felt, GRP fibreglass, EPDM rubber, and asphalt roofing systems. Whether it’s a small leak, ponding water, storm damage, or general wear and tear, we’ll identify the source of the problem and provide a reliable, cost-effective repair to restore your roof.

A professionally installed felt roof generally lasts between 15 and 25 years, depending on the quality of materials, weather exposure, and ongoing maintenance. Regular inspections and prompt repairs can significantly extend its lifespan. If your felt roof is showing signs of cracking, blistering, or persistent leaks, we can assess whether a repair or replacement is the best solution.

Yes. While we’re based in Ipswich, we also serve many surrounding towns and villages throughout Suffolk. If you’re unsure whether we cover your location, simply get in touch and we’ll be happy to confirm our availability and arrange a convenient visit.
