Leak Detection That Finds the Real Problem.

“Really pleased with the roof leak repair. The roofer found where the water was getting in and sorted it properly rather than just patching it up. Arrived on time, explained everything clearly and left the area tidy. Excellent service from start to finish.”

“Really pleased with the roof leak repair. The roofer found where the water was getting in and sorted it properly rather than just patching it up. Arrived on time, explained everything clearly and left the area tidy. Excellent service from start to finish.”

Tommy

“We had a persistent leak around the chimney which turned out to be an issue with the lead flashing. The roofer identified the problem straight away and replaced the damaged flashing. No more leaks since, and the work was completed to a very high standard.”

Jack Katsina

“Our Velux window had started letting water in during heavy rain. The roofer inspected it and found the issue with the flashing around the window. They carried out the repair quickly and everything has been completely dry since. Great workmanship and excellent communication throughout.”

Roof leaks are notoriously hard to find. Water travels — it enters in one place and shows up somewhere completely different. Patching where it's dripping inside is a temporary fix at best.

Our leak detection service systematically checks the most common failure points: tile and slate coverings, ridge and hip tiles, lead flashings, chimney abutments, valley gutters, flat roof junctions, and roofline details.

We inspect from the loft where possible, looking for water trails on timbers and insulation. Combined with an external roof inspection, we can usually pinpoint the source in a single visit.

Once we've found it, we give you a straight choice: fix it now with a fixed-price quote, or monitor it if it's genuinely minor. We won't invent work you don't need.

Covering, flashings, valleys, chimneys, and roofline checked methodically.

All roof types

Pitched, flat, slate, tile — we find leaks on every kind of roof.

The real cost

Fix It Now, Save Later

What happens when you ignore undetected leaks.

Day 1

Hidden Ingress

Water enters through a pinhole or cracked seal. No visible signs inside yet.

Detection + repair: £150–£350

Week 4

Damp Appears

Ceiling stains and musty smells. Source still unclear without proper inspection.

Typical cost: £400–£1,200

Month 3+

Major Damage

Insulation ruined, timbers rotting, mould growing. Tracing becomes harder and repair costlier.

Typical cost: £2,000–£6,000+
FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

We combine external roof inspection with loft checks, looking for water trails on timbers and insulation.
Common — water travels along timbers before dripping. The entry point is often metres from the stain.
We use visual and physical inspection methods. For complex cases we may recommend additional specialist testing.
The inspection and quote are free. If you go ahead with the repair, detection is part of the job.
Yes. Flat roof leaks often occur at upstands, joints, and outlets — we check all of these systematically.
