Between Cobham, Oxshott Road, Fairmile and Stoke D'Abernon there are large detached houses with multiple roof planes, deep valleys, dormers and a lot of lead detailing. On a large roof with several planes meeting, the tiles are usually fine and the fault is at a valley, a wall flashing or a lead detail. Mature trees and the river Mole also mean heavy leaf fall into valleys and gutters, and shaded slopes that grow moss. ### Complex roofs surveyed properly Multiple hips, valleys, dormers and lead details mean the tile above the stain is rarely the culprit. ### Leadwork done properly Valleys, flashings, soakers and wall flashings dressed in lead, not patched with mortar or sealant. ### Mature trees, blocked valleys Leaf fall into valleys and gutters is the routine Cobham problem, and it causes leaks that look like tile failure. ### Free, detailed written quotes On a large roof the scope needs to be clear. Materials, method and guarantee are set out before work starts.

We won't quote job counts or promise a fixed arrival time, because we don't track that kind of thing. What we can back up is over thirty years' experience, free quotes and guarantees in writing. ### 30+ years of experience Over three decades on Surrey roofs, including the valleys, dormers and leadwork that large Cobham properties are full of. ### Leadwork done in lead Where a previous repair used mortar or mastic, we take it out and dress the detail properly so it sheds water. ### Written guarantees 25 years tiled, 15 years flat, 5 years guttering and fascia, 10 years chimney and leadwork, on the quote. ### £2m / £10m insurance £2m public liability and £10m employers' liability, which matters on properties with glazing and conservatories nearby. ### Explicit scope Large roofs go wrong when scope is vague. Yours is written down before anything starts. ### Grounds left as found Debris and packaging leave with us, and lawns, drives and planting are protected while the work runs.

These are the failures we find most often. ### Leaking valleys A valley carries the water from two roof planes, so it takes far more than any tile. Fill it with leaves and moss, or let the lead fail, and water goes sideways under the tiles, often showing up well away from the valley. ### Dormer cheeks and dormer flat roofs Dormers add several valleys and flashings at once. Older dormers were often finished with mortar fillets that have long since cracked. We re-form the valleys with lead soakers and flashings, and check the deck on any flat top. ### Lead cracked along its folds Lead expands and contracts with temperature, and long sections eventually crack along the fold line. A mastic repair lasts a winter or two; replacing the section in properly dressed lead stops it for good. ### Gutters overwhelmed by tree cover Mature planting fills gutters and outlets heavily every autumn. Overflow rots fascia timber and stains render and brickwork. Regular clearing avoids it. ### Chimney stacks on older properties Older houses near the village centre carry stacks with decades-old pointing and cracked flaunching. Water gets into the masonry and shows internally as damp on a chimney breast. ### Moss on shaded, damp slopes Shade from mature trees keeps roof slopes wet, and moss establishes quickly. It's removed carefully; heavy pressure washing takes the tile surface with it. How the job runs ## The same six steps on every Cobham job - Step 1 ### Get in touch You describe what you have noticed (a stain on a ceiling, a slipped tile, an overflowing gutter) and Matt tells you on the phone whether it sounds like a repair or something larger. - Step 2 ### We look at the roof We look at the actual roof: the tiles, the flashings, the valleys, the gutter falls and the loft side where water is showing. Guessing from the ground is how the wrong job gets quoted. - Step 3 ### We explain what we find You are shown what has failed and why, including photographs of anything you cannot see yourself, so the decision is yours rather than ours. - Step 4 ### A free, detailed written quote Materials, method and scope in writing, with the guarantee that applies to the work stated on it. No verbal figures that change once the scaffold is up. - Step 5 ### We do the work We protect what is below, keep the site clear at the end of each day and take the old material away with us. Customers mention the tidy site as often as the roof itself. - Step 6 ### Checked and guaranteed Repairs and new work get tested before we call them finished, then your workmanship guarantee is confirmed in writing, up to 25 years on tiled roofs.
