Pewsham is at the age where maintenance is becoming unavoidable — not dramatically, but systematically. The flat roofs fitted on rear extensions during the 1990s construction phase are now 25–35 years old. Felt flat roofs have a design life of 15–25 years. Most Pewsham flat roofs are past their service life, and many are showing the progression from blistering to ponding to active ingress that characterises felt failure.
On the main pitched roofs, ridge and hip mortar is the primary call. Concrete interlocking tiles on 1990s–2000s properties are fixed with flexible mortar at ridge and hip level — this mortar has a service life of approximately 20–25 years before it begins to crack and allow tiles to rock. We see a steady stream of Pewsham ridge repoints, and we identify and flag loose tiles during every repair visit.
"Flat roof on extension had been leaking for two years — two other roofers patched it. These stripped it back, replaced with GRP. Dry both winters since. Should have done it properly first time."
"Ridge mortar failing on 1990s detached — tiles rocking at the apex. Full ridge and hip repoint in flexible mortar. Done in a day, tidy, fair price."
"Cracked tile on the front slope — sourced from their stock, matched perfectly, replaced same visit. Exactly the straightforward repair it should have been."
On a 1990s–2000s felt flat roof showing active failure, replacement almost always makes more sense than repair. Re-felting over a failed membrane is a temporary fix at best. GRP fibreglass replacement costs a similar amount and carries a 25-year material guarantee.
Minor felt repairs from £200–£400. GRP replacement on a typical extension flat roof (up to 20m²): £1,200–£2,500. Ridge and hip repointing: £300–£600 for a full run. Free written quote — call 01249 247 076.
Pewsham is 2 miles from our Chippenham base — typically 5 minutes. Emergency response is usually under 1 hour. Available 24/7.
For ridge and hip repointing, scaffold is usually required — we include this in the quote. For minor tile replacements on low-pitched roofs, ladder access is sometimes sufficient. We assess during the free survey.
We inspect all accessible slopes, ridges, hips, verges, valleys, flashings, chimney stacks and guttering. We provide written findings including photos of any issues identified, and a clear prioritised quote separating urgent repairs from maintenance items. No charge, no obligation.
All repair work carries a written workmanship guarantee — typically 5 years on targeted repairs, 10 years on more extensive work. Lead valley and flashing work carries a 10-year guarantee as standard. Guarantee terms are stated clearly in every written quote.
Yes — you're welcome to view from ground level and we'll explain what we're doing and why. We take photos during the repair showing the condition before, during and after, and share these with you on completion. Transparency is part of the service.
