Adjacent areas inspected
We check beyond the obvious gap for uplift, movement and hidden damage.
Loose parts made safe
We prioritise materials that may fall or leave the property exposed.
Damage clearly recorded
We explain the defects found and the repair completed at the property.
Make storm damage safe before it worsens
High winds can lift tiles, shift slates and loosen ridges without leaving every fault in plain sight. Flashing may pull away, underlay can become exposed and flying debris can damage a wider section. If you have a storm damaged roof in Cardiff, keep clear of fallen material and do not climb up for a closer look. We inspect the obvious damage and adjacent areas because wind uplift often travels beyond the first missing tile. Our immediate work may include securing loose parts, covering an exposed section or replacing materials where safe conditions allow.
From temporary cover to lasting repair
Stabilisation keeps the situation under control; it does not always complete the job. Once we can inspect properly, we assess coverings, ridges, flashing and vulnerable junctions around the affected area. We then replace damaged components and restore the weatherproof finish. Safe ground-level photographs taken after the event can help show the original condition. We can also give you a clear description of what we found and completed, helping you keep an accurate record without guessing which gust did what.
Frequently asked questions
Should we inspect storm damage ourselves?
Only from a safe position on the ground. Stay away from fallen tiles, slates and loose materials, and never climb onto a wet or unstable roof. Send us photographs if you can take them safely.
Why do you inspect beyond the missing tiles?
Wind can loosen fixings and shift nearby coverings without removing them completely. We examine adjacent roof sections and junctions so the repair does not leave less obvious storm damage behind.
Can storm damage be repaired immediately?
We complete safe permanent work when access, weather and materials allow. Otherwise, we stabilise or weatherproof the area first and explain what must happen before the final repair can be completed.
