Roof Leak Water Damage in Plymouth

A roof leak does its damage quietly, soaking the loft, the insulation and the ceilings before it ever drips through. We make safe, dry it out and treat what it soaked.

Roof leak water damage to a ceiling in a Plymouth home

A roof leak spreads before it shows

Water from a roof leak runs into the loft, soaks the insulation and the ceiling below, and only shows as a stain or a drip once a lot has already got in. We deal with the water that has spread through the roof space, not just the visible patch.

What we do with a roof leak

Wet loft insulation is the hidden problem

Soaked insulation holds water against the ceiling and feeds mould. We dry or replace it, because a leak fixed on the roof still leaves a wet loft below.

Plymouth's Atlantic storms drive rain under slates and around chimneys, soaking lofts and ceilings. We dry it out and treat the damage.

Frequently asked questions

Do you repair the roof?

We make safe and can arrange a temporary fix to stop more water, then dry the damage. Permanent roofing is arranged alongside.

Why dry the loft if the leak is fixed?

Because the loft and insulation are still holding water. Left wet they keep the ceiling damp and feed mould, so they need drying.

Will the ceiling stain come back?

Once the area is dry we treat the staining. A stain that returns means the leak is still active, which we check for.
