Roof repairs in Boston
Slipped pantiles, leaks and failed lead put right across PE21 and PE22, with photographs and a written price.
Most roof repairs in Boston start the same way: one tile out of line on an exposed slope, and a year later a stain on a bedroom ceiling. We repair roofs across the town and the fen villages, from a single tile to a whole elevation.
Pantiles and what they do
A great deal of Boston's older brick housing carries clay pantile, and pantiles are honest things. They sit happily for decades, then a windy night lifts one out of its neighbour's lap and the water finds the gap. Caught early that is a fast, cheap repair. Left alone it soaks the felt and battens underneath, and then it is not.
Tracing the leak properly
Water almost never comes in where the stain shows. It runs along a batten and down a rafter and drops where it likes, so a repair aimed at the stain treats the wrong end of the problem. We work back to the actual entry point, lifting tiles to look where we need to, and we photograph what is underneath so you can see it too.
Matching an older roof
Where a tile has been out of production for years we have sourced matched replacements from a salvage yard rather than fit the nearest modern equivalent, because a bright patch in the middle of a weathered roof is not really a repair. On the Swineshead cottage the old pantiles had reached the end and the roof was rebuilt instead, which is the other honest answer when it is the right one.

Before you ring
Roof Repairs in Boston: common questions
My pantiles keep slipping. Is that a re-roof?
Not necessarily. If the battens and felt underneath are sound it is a repair. If it is happening faster every winter that usually means the fixings or the felt have gone, and we will show you photographs of which it is before you decide.
Can you match old pantiles?
Usually. Where a tile is long out of production we have found matched replacements at salvage before now, so the repair settles in with the rest of the roof rather than announcing itself.
Have you actually worked around Boston?
Yes. There is a full re-roof at Wyberton and a rebuilt roof at Swineshead on our work pages, both photographed before, during and after.
How soon can you look at it?
Ring 01406 704369 and we will give you an honest answer rather than a flattering one. If it is an emergency the phone is answered day or night.
