It's vital to stay on top (get it?) of any problems that you discover with your roof, as structurally, it's one of the important parts of your home. It can be a source of major concern if you are thinking about costs or where the problem may have originated. One of the most common problems is a leak, which can be particularly unpleasant during our rainy, stormy winters and there are a number of reasons why a leak happens. We've outlined six of them here so that you'll be more informed when you call to get it repaired.
One of the reasons that you should check your roof twice a year is to make sure the gutters are clear. If you leave them, then that prevents them from doing their job, which is letting melted snow and rain run off the roof. This causes water to build up on the roof, wearing down protective layers and ultimately getting inside the house. Make sure to clear out your gutters of leaves and debris in the autumn months and again when spring comes.
One of the most common causes of a leak is damage to the junctions on the roof. This can be from poor installation or after a bad storm. The issue here is that the slightest damage can turn into a big problem when a large amount of water falls on this area, resulting in a leak.
We're used to fairly strong winds in this part of the country and whilst tiles and roof slates are designed to keep the rain out, sometimes the wind can lift them, meaning rain forces its way through any gaps! The underlay is designed to carry this water away but with continued exposure the underlay with begin to rot and this can cause a leak.
It's usually quite easy to notice when a slate or tile has come off the roof (a loud crash ensues!) but if you have failed to notice, then the leak that happens soon after won't be as easy to ignore. This is because pools of water can build up on the underlay and damage it.
Whilst not normally a cause of direct damage to your roof, if the roof space is not ventilated properly then condensation can form on the underside of the tiles or underlay. This leads to drops of water leaking through the ceiling, which appears to be a leak, but isn't.
If you have an extension that the water from the roof on your house flows onto, then it's likely that at some point this roof will leak. The tiles and underlay of the extension won't be able to cope with large volumes of water over time and eventually the roof will give at some point.
Your roof is built to last but it has to endure a lot. Make sure that you have it checked regularly and consider rubber roof coating to protect it further from the inclement weather. Detecting problems early means that you won't be hit with a huge bill at a later date.

Excellent all round service. Very professional and meticulous job. Neighbours extremely impressed with the look of our house - (night & day!!) So impressed with everything - great job - Brian & Scott are great workers - thank you.
From the initial contact with Peter the surveyor to Barry and Bob who carried out the work I had complete confidence that the workmanship would be of a high standard. I was not disappointed.
It was a pleasure to have 2 workmen arriving bright & cheery every morning at the specified time. Ryan & Martin were very professional and kept us informed at every stage. Nothing was any bother for them. We would certainly recommend them and your company to family and friends. Passers by have actually commented on the quality of the work.
As far as can be seen at the moment we are extremely pleased with all we have had done. It will take a little time to adjust to it all and see how it wears. We trust that all will be well and the warranty will cover all. Your 2 workmen are a real credit to your company.
Brian and Scott went well over what I expected and were so willing to help me out over anything I asked. If I ever were to get Kingdom Coatings to do additional work, I would ask for them. Thank you.
A very professional company who know exactly what is required to produce a top class job. Their staff are equally professional and work unsupervised to give the client exactly what they are looking for.
The workers explained what was required before starting, making sure we understood the work that was to be carried out. They showed much respect to us as customers. Overall delighted with the work and attitude to those of us who are older and in need of guidance.
A very pleasant experience with NO hassle whatsoever. We are extremely delighted with the finished job and would highly recommend Kingdom Coatings.
Great staff, they just came and got on with the job. No messing about. Very hard working. The lady in the office was great at keeping us informed with what was happening. Overall a good experience. (Walls)
The installers were hard working and polite with a sense of humour. Management and office staff could not be faulted either for going out their way to provide a safe service.
The two men were very polite and have done a great job. You hear so many stories about companies who come to your door trying to sell you things. From Mandy who came to give us a quote to the two lads who did the job, cannot fault them. Very professional.
We have found the service from your company to be of a very high standard and would advise anyone we know to use your company. Both men were extremely polite and helpful. Thank you.
From start to finish we have been very happy with the hard work Brian and Scott have been involved in. Nothing has been a bother to them, and Dave and I have been very impressed that they were always asking if we were happy with the results and indeed we are. (Walls)

I’m extremely pleased with the work carried out at my house. Greg and Barry are an excellent team. They worked hard the day my roof was cleaned – the weather was baltic but it didn’t phase them. A job well done indeed.
A very hard working team who worked extremely hard and did a great job. They kept me informed at regular intervals during their visits. A thoroughly professional service. Well done!
