Slipped Tile Repairs in Winchester

Slipped Tile Repairs in Winchester

Winchester customers looking for slipped tile repairs turn to Hampshire Roof Repairs. A tile slips when the fixing holding it in place fails — a corroded nail, a snapped nib on the tile itself, or a batten that's rotted underneath it and lost its grip. Once a tile has moved even a small amount out of its overlap with the tiles around it, the roof covering at that point stops shedding water the way it's designed to, and wind can get underneath and work the tile further loose over time. A slipped tile is also rarely a one-off — if the fixing on one tile has failed, nearby tiles fixed at the same time, in the same conditions, are often not far behind. Re-fixing a slipped tile properly means checking why it moved in the first place, not just pushing it back into place, and having a look at the tiles either side while access is already there. Winchester's historic core has one of the highest concentrations of listed and conservation-area buildings anywhere in the county, so repairs here often mean sourcing matching slate or clay tile and working within genuine access restrictions on some of the narrower streets. Roofs on the older buildings are old enough that lead flashing around chimneys and roof junctions has frequently reached the point of needing attention, which is where most of the leaks we're called to in the city centre actually trace back to.
