Why tiles move
Pitched roofs face constant weather exposure, causing fixings to corrode and individual units to slip or crack over time.
- Storm damage and wind upliftHigh winds catch loose edges on pitched roofs across Thatcham and Newbury, lifting individual slates or snapping aged nibs on clay and concrete tiles.
- Nail fatigue and frost actionOlder slate fixings corrode over decades, while moisture penetration into hairline fractures freezes during winter, splitting tiles cleanly along their length.
- Underlay deteriorationWhen a tile slips out of alignment, sunlight and water degrade the exposed roofing felt beneath, which leads directly to damp patches on bedroom ceilings.
What happens on the day
Straightforward ground preparations help ensure work proceeds without delay on the scheduled booking date.
- Ground access and parkingClear driveways or patio areas directly beneath the work area so ladders and safety equipment can be pitched on solid, level ground.
- Loft accessMake sure internal access to the loft space is clear if an internal check of roof timbers and membrane condition is required.

Tile and slate questions
Can you replace just a single slipped tile?
Yes. Individual slipped or cracked tiles can be removed and replaced without stripping back the wider roof covering, provided neighbouring timbers and fixings remain sound.
Can you match old or discontinued roof tiles?
We source reclaimed and matching profile materials wherever possible to blend replacements with aged clay, concrete or natural slate roofs.
How do I know if water has penetrated the roof?
Damp patches on ceilings, watermarks on attic rafters, or pieces of broken tile in perimeter gutters indicate water has breached the outer covering.
Will replacing broken tiles stop a current ceiling leak?
Replacing damaged coverings stops incoming rainwater at the surface, allowing damp roof timbers and insulation to dry out naturally.
