Shared roofs need a clear decision-maker
If a roof covers several flats, the leak may affect one home while the repair needs approval from the freeholder or managing agent. We discuss who can authorise the job and arrange access before confirming work.
The quote identifies the affected roof section and proposed repair. Include any restrictions on access to communal areas when enquiring so the inspection can be planned properly.
A leak at the flat roof edge
Water entering beside a parapet or at an outlet may need an edge or drainage repair rather than replacement of the whole flat roof. We inspect the surface and its connections to establish the condition.
If the main covering is sound, we explain the local repair. If deterioration extends further, the renewal option is set out with the junctions and outlets included in its scope.
Separate roof damage from overflowing gutters
A wet wall or window head can involve the roof above it, the gutter or both. We check the water route before recommending clearing, gutter repairs or replacement roofing.
For a Poole property with more than one roof level, tell us which room or elevation is affected. We can then explain the relationship between the roof sections and the repair we propose.

Questions about your Poole roof repair
Can I enquire if I own a flat rather than the roof?
Yes. We can discuss the problem, but the person accepting work must have authority for the roof. A managing agent or owner may need to arrange the appointment.
Can an outlet fault be repaired without renewing the covering?
Sometimes. We inspect the outlet and the adjoining covering first, then explain whether the defect is local or part of wider deterioration.
