Repair Or Replace Your Roof?
Not every worn roof needs replacing, and not every leak can be fixed with a repair. Here is how to think it through.

When A Repair Makes Sense
- The damage is limited, such as a few slipped slates or a failed flashing
- The rest of the roof covering and the structure are in good condition
- The roof is not near the end of its life
When Replacement Is Better Value
- The covering is worn out across the whole roof
- The same areas keep leaking after repairs
- Many tiles or slates are slipping, cracking or flaking
- The timbers or battens underneath are rotten
- You are spending more on repeated repairs than a new roof would cost over time
What Affects The Decision
The age and type of the roof, how widespread the problems are, the condition of the structure, your plans for the property and your budget all play a part.
