Service overview

24/7 Emergency Roofing: what you need to know

What it is

Emergency roofing is urgent work to stop water coming in or make a damaged roof safe. That can mean temporary weatherproofing, replacing blown tiles and slates, securing loose ridges, or repairing flashings that have failed.

Who it is for

Homeowners and businesses with active leaks, storm damage, fallen tiles or anything on the roof that looks unsafe.

When you need it

When water is coming through ceilings, after high winds have stripped tiles, when ridge tiles are loose or have fallen, or when debris has damaged the roof.

Why professional work matters

Every hour water gets in, it soaks insulation, stains ceilings and wets timbers. Fast, competent action limits the damage and the cost of the full repair.

The risk of waiting

Why you should not wait on a roof emergency

Roof damage gets worse quickly, especially in bad weather.

Ceiling damage

Water collects above ceilings and can bring plaster down.

Electrical risk

Water near lights and wiring is a safety hazard.

Further storm damage

Wind gets under loose tiles and strips more of the roof.

Falling debris

Loose tiles and ridges can fall and injure people below.

Common mistakes to avoid

Waiting for the weather to improve before calling.
Climbing onto the roof yourself.
Accepting a temporary fix as the permanent repair.
Using a door-knocker after a storm without checking who they are.

Guide

What to do in a roofing emergency

Stay safe

Never go onto a roof in bad weather. Keep people away from areas below loose tiles or ridges, and if water is near light fittings or sockets, turn off the electrics to that area if it is safe to do so.

Limit the damage inside

Move furniture and belongings away from the leak, put down containers and towels, and if a ceiling is bulging with water, keep clear of it. Take photos for your insurer.

Call us

Ring 07950 665662 any time. Tell us where you are, what you can see and whether water is coming in. We will advise on what to do next and arrange to make the roof safe.

Then fix it properly

Once the roof is safe, we inspect it fully and provide a written quote for the permanent repair, which is backed by our 10-year roofing guarantee.

After the emergency

Once your roof is safe and repaired, check ceilings and the loft over the following days for any remaining damp, and let us know if anything changes. Wet insulation and plaster can take time to dry out, and spotting a problem early means it can be dealt with quickly.

Why a local roofer matters in an emergency

When water is coming through a ceiling, it is important to discuss availability, access and the damage with the contractor rather than assume an arrival time. Being based in Maidstone, we cover the surrounding towns and villages for emergency call-outs, and because we also carry out full roof repairs and replacements, the same team that makes your roof safe can put it right properly afterwards.

Dealing with your insurer

If storm damage is covered by your buildings insurance, your insurer will usually want photos, a description of the damage and a quote for the repair. Take photos as soon as it is safe, keep any receipts for emergency costs, and we can provide a written description of the work and a written quote for the permanent repair to support your claim.

Temporary versus permanent repairs

An emergency repair is about stopping water and making the roof safe. Sometimes that is a permanent fix there and then, such as refixing a few slipped tiles. Sometimes it means temporary weatherproofing until materials can be sourced and the full repair carried out in safe conditions. We always explain which it is, so you are never left thinking a temporary measure is the final job.

Common causes of emergency call-outs

Storm winds lifting tiles and slates, ridge tiles coming loose after mortar has failed, flashings pulling away from walls and chimneys, flat roof coverings splitting, and fallen branches damaging the roof are possible causes of roofing emergencies.

Reducing the risk of future emergencies

Many emergencies follow problems that had been building for a while: loose ridges, failing flashings, blocked gutters. Once your roof has been made safe and repaired, we can point out anything else that should be dealt with before it becomes the next emergency.

How quoting and payment work

Every 24/7 emergency roofing enquiry starts with a free, no-obligation site visit and a written quotation, so you can see exactly what is included before deciding. On larger projects we take a one-third deposit to secure materials, and the balance is split across 3 to 4 stage payments agreed before work starts.

Who will be on site

Work is led by Michael Speller, a City & Guilds qualified bricklayer with NVQ Level 2 and Level 3 in Brickwork, with a core team of four. Where your project needs electrical or plumbing work, we bring in trusted subcontracted trades and coordinate them, so you deal with one contractor throughout. We hold public liability insurance.
