1. Sagging Roof

This is potentially a major problem, not to mention a safety risk. If you can see visible signs of your roof beginning to sag, it requires immediate professional attention. We recommend you contact our 24/7 emergency plumber—don’t procrastinate.

2.Visible Light Through Roof Boards

If you’re inside and can see daylight filtering through the ceiling, yet you don’t have a skylight, there’s a structural integrity problem. This should not be happening, and we recommend contacting us as soon as possible.

3. Water Leaks

Look at your ceiling for signs of water damage and roof leaks. If you notice stains, drips, or pools of liquid, your roof is likely compromised and needs a professional assessment.

4. Damaged or Missing Tiles

Cracked, broken or missing tiles or shingles may be an isolated problem not linked to broader roof issues. However, they could also be an early sign of trouble. Again, it’s best to call our professional roof plumbers and find out for sure.

5. Blocked Gutters

This is a common problem, especially after autumn, when all the leaves fall off nearby trees, gathering into gutters and downpipes. This can cause water to back up and break into the roof or home. It’s important to keep gutters clean at all times (especially going into fire season; otherwise, you risk a damaged roof and your time turning into a tinderbox). This is part of our professional service, so don’t hesitate to call our roofing plumber.

6. Ageing Roof

How old is your house and roof? If they’re nearing a quarter of a century, it’s time to give them a quality once-over. Depending on the material and quality of construction, most roofs should last 20 to 25 years

7. Creeping Energy Bills

Have you noticed your energy bills have gone up? Perhaps you’re running heaters longer and higher than usual in winter, or the air conditioning has to be almost non-stop in summer? If this has only just started to happen, it might not be global warming alone. It could well mean your insulation or ventilation systems have been compromised. 

8. Signs of Mould, Rust, Corrosion or Peeling Paint 

If your roof is harbouring guests (such as mould, rust, corrosion), or showing signs of peeling paint, you could have a number of issues on your hand. Moisture build-up, damage to protective coating and water leaks are just some of the problems that might be lurking in the background.
