With the winter weather becoming colder than ever, and the icy mornings setting in, it is now when it becomes apparent that your roof is not doing its job properly.

Roofs should provide shelter; they should have the correct degree slope that water from rainfall runs off easily. The guttering system should be cleared of debris, such as leaves and old nests from previous seasons, this allows for adequate drainage from the top of your home. Checking your roof for broken tiles as these can alter the function of the roof, causing leaks which is extremely problematic if it gets into your home.

The roof should also provide insulation, your attic contains insulation, such as fibreglass, is this fibreglass becomes damp and rotten, you home will not be well insulated, and will make a dramatic difference to your energy bills.

It is recommended that you get your roof fixed before it causes too many issues within your home.
