Flat roof surveys and leak tracing

Older extensions and garages in Colwyn Bay frequently have felt roofs that have been patched several times. Before paying for another repair, many owners want to know whether the roof has much life left. That is exactly the question a condition survey answers.

Emergency leak repairs

Leaves and debris build up in outlets and gutters on flat roofs around Colwyn Bay, especially under trees. A blocked outlet can turn a normal rainstorm into a flood over the upstands. Clearing it is often part of the emergency visit, and the permanent fix looks at why it blocked.
