Why roofs leak in Chelsea
Chelsea's bayside winds and salt air expose roofs to movement and corrosion. Typical issues include thermal movement cracking ridges and mortar, penetration seal failures, and wind-lift damage during storms.

Repair, restoration or re-roof?
Localised defects are usually repairable. If deterioration is widespread, a roof restoration or complete re-roof may make more sense than extensive patching.
Pricing & timing
Minor repairs are usually completed within a day. We provide transparent pricing before we start work — no surprises or hidden costs.
