We advise that the roof is inspected every year before winter arrives. In the interest of safety we advise that you initially carry out inspections from ground level. Use a camera with a good zoom if you would like to inspect further. If you believe a detailed inspection is required please do not hesitate in contacting Roundhay Roofing.
Look for missing or slipped tiles. Check for gaps in the mortar on ridges. Check flashings around chimneys or roof penetrations.

It is best to speak to an expert and find out what options are available to suit your requirements.
