Slate and tile repairs in Newton Abbot
Many of the older houses in Newton Abbot, around Wolborough, Highweek and the town centre, have natural slate roofs that are now well over a hundred years old. The slates often outlast the nails, so they start slipping one at a time. We refix them with slate hooks or straps and match any replacements. On tiled roofs we replace cracked tiles and re-bed or dry-fix loose ridges and verges. More on our slate and tile repairs page.
Leadwork and chimney repairs in Newton Abbot
Chimney stacks and the lead around them cause more leaks than anything else we see. We replace cracked or short lead flashings, swap failed cement fillets for proper lead, repoint stacks and re-bed pots and flaunching. See lead work and chimney repairs.
Emergency roof repairs
Storm damage, a tree through the roof or water coming in fast: ring us. We'll tell you honestly how soon we can be there and make it safe first if the full repair has to wait for materials or a dry day.

Roof repairs in Newton Abbot: common questions
How quickly can you get to Newton Abbot?
We're six miles away in Chudleigh, so usually quickly. Call and we'll tell you honestly when we can come.
My slates keep slipping. Do I need a new roof?
Not always. If a few slates have slipped, we refix them. If the nails have failed across the whole roof, a re-roof is usually better value, and we'll explain why.
Why does my chimney leak when it rains hard?
Usually the lead flashings, a cracked cement fillet or failed pointing. Wind-driven rain finds the weak spot. We check all three.
Will my insurer pay for storm damage?
Most buildings policies cover sudden storm damage but not wear and tear. We can give you a written report and quote for your insurer.
