Yes. Emergency temporary weatherproofing proceeds with NT notification rather than advance approval. We use NT-appropriate methods — tarpaulins secured to battens, not adhesive on tile surfaces or masonry. Permanent repair follows the standard NT approval process.
Clay plain tile offcuts in common Lacock profiles, code 4 lead, and NHL lime mortar. We aim to complete permanent repair same-visit where possible, or leave a properly secured temporary fix pending full repair.
We advise doing so as a courtesy — the NT is generally supportive of emergency work and notification maintains the leaseholder's good standing. We help with this as part of the emergency response.
Call 01249 247 076 immediately — we respond 24/7. In the meantime: move valuables away from the affected area, place buckets under active drips, and if ceiling plaster is bulging with water, carefully pierce it at the lowest point to release the water in a controlled flow rather than letting it collapse. Do not go on the roof yourself.
Yes. We provide a written damage assessment report, dated photographs of the roof condition before and after repair, and an itemised invoice. Insurers typically require this documentation for storm damage claims. We can also provide a separate condition report if your insurer requests one.
