Tile profile matched
We consider shape, size, material and colour before selecting a replacement.
Fixing point inspected
We check what caused the tile to slip, crack or become insecure.
Nearby tiles checked
We look for linked movement or impact damage around the visible fault.
Replace the tile before rain finds the gap
A cracked, slipped or missing tile breaks the roof's overlapping outer layer. The underlay may provide temporary protection, but leaving it exposed increases the chance of water entry and weather damage. We replace broken roof tiles across Cardiff after checking the profile, dimensions, material, colour and fixing method of the existing covering. A tile that merely looks similar may sit badly or leave the wrong overlap. We remove the defective piece safely, examine its fixing point and inspect the tiles around it before securing a suitable replacement.
Check whether the fault is truly isolated
Impact or movement can affect more than the tile that first catches your eye. Nearby coverings may be cracked, and the batten or fixing beneath may also need attention. We inspect that local area rather than slotting in a replacement and heading down the ladder. Individual tile replacement is proportionate when the rest of the covering remains sound. If failures appear across a slope or several sections, we explain why a wider roof assessment may save you from a steady procession of small repairs.
Frequently asked questions
Can you match an older roof tile?
We consider profile, size, material, colour and fixing method when looking for a suitable replacement. An exact visual match may depend on availability, but correct fit and overlap remain essential.
Does one missing tile make the roof leak?
It can expose the underlay and increase the chance of water getting beneath the covering. The effect depends on the roof position and underlay condition, so arranging an early check is sensible.
When are several broken tiles a wider concern?
Damage across one or more slopes may point to age, weak fixings, failing battens or storm movement. We inspect the spread of defects before deciding whether individual replacement remains practical.
