Roof Leak Repairs in Wickham

Roof Leak Repairs in Wickham

Wickham customers looking for roof leak repairs turn to Hampshire Roof Repairs. A roof leak almost never shows itself in a straightforward way. Water finds a way in at one point — a lifted tile, a gap in cracked pointing, a split in old felt — and then follows the path of least resistance across a rafter, along a batten, or down inside a layer of underlay before it finally drips through somewhere on your ceiling. That means the damp patch you can see inside the house might be a metre or more from where the actual fault is on the roof. Chasing the visible symptom without finding the real source is how the same leak keeps "coming back" after a patch job. A proper leak repair starts in the loft, tracing the water's path upward against gravity and sideways along the timbers until it reaches the actual point of entry, then fixing that point with materials that match the existing roof covering. The Georgian buildings around Wickham's square carry period roofing where cracked ridge bedding and ageing flashing are the more common finds, and the conservation designation means any repair needs to keep faith with the existing materials. Away from the square, the more modern housing sees the usual storm and gutter-related calls typical of a rural Hampshire village.
