Spotting a roof leak

Noticing that you have a roof leak can be the hardest part of roofing maintenance, as leaks are often slow, and can cause a lot of damage before you would normally notice a problem.

To spot small leaks before they turn into a big problem, it's a good idea to inspect your roof at least once a year (or twice a year if possible).

Carefully use a ladder to get a look at the roof - but do not walk on the surface, as this can damage your roofing and be unsafe. Use binoculars to examine the roof. Checking a roof in London during the winter can be dangerous – so take extra care.

Parts of a roof likely to break

The parts of a roof in London most likely to need repair are flashing (e.g. around any chimneys or pipes) - look for any bits of felt with cracks or curled edges.

Also look for any cracked or damaged roofing shingles. Extreme weather and ice can cause cracked tiles which can leave large parts of the roof exposed to the felt underneath.

Look for any discoloured patches of roofing, for example any black or green areas; this may be algae which can eat away at the roof.

If your roof is more than a few years old, check the loft or attic ceiling (and rafters) for damp patches after a storm or period of heavy snow.
