It's one of the further points we work to, so a single small repair is usually best combined with anything else the roof needs. Shalford's housing is older on average, with Victorian and Edwardian houses along Kings Road and Station Road, village cottages near the Common, and post-war family housing filling in between. Steep pitches, deep valleys, tall stacks and a lot of lead are the details that leak first here. ### Period slate and clay tile Victorian and Edwardian roofs where the tiles, valleys and lead all need assessing together. ### Tall stacks and heavy leadwork Chimneys, valleys and step flashings re-formed and hand-dressed rather than sealed over. ### Damp valley positions Sheltered, low-lying slopes near the Wey hold moss and moisture. Clearing them is cheap; ignoring them is not. ### Time set aside for your job Shalford is one of our further areas, so we plan a proper visit rather than a rushed look.

Workmanship guarantees on work in ShalfordTiled roofs25 yearsFlat roofs15 yearsGuttering & fascia work5 yearsChimney & leadwork10 years Local roofs, local problems ## Common roof problems in Shalford Older housing in a damp valley setting produces a recognisable pattern of failures. ### Failed valleys on period roofs Old lead splits at the folds and mortar-filled valleys crack. Water then runs under the tiles and appears indoors well away from the fault. We re-line and re-detail properly. ### Slipped and flaking slates Once nail sickness starts, slates slide out in ones and twos. A handful can be re-hooked; when it's happening everywhere, we price a new roof honestly against endless patching. ### Moss and standing damp on low slopes Sheltered, low-lying positions dry slowly. Moss builds thickly and washes into the gutters. Stripping it carefully prevents saturated tiles and frost damage. ### Chimney stacks letting water into rooms Eroded pointing, cracked flaunching and loose pots let water into the masonry. Repointing, replacing crumbling brick and re-dressing the lead deals with the cause. ### Rear extension flat roofs Falls have often flattened and outlets no longer clear. We strip back, replace what has gone, correct the fall and re-form the edges and outlets. ### Deep period gutters overflowing Older, deeper gutter profiles hold a lot of debris. Left running down the wall, it soaks fascia and brickwork. Clearing and replacing what has corroded is straightforward. How the job runs ## The same six steps on every Shalford 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. Questions from Shalford ## Frequently asked questions Do you cover Shalford?Yes. We're a family-run business based in Bookham, working through the Horsleys and Guildford, and covering the villages towards Chilworth and Bramley too. Will you come out for a very small repair?Shalford is one of our further areas, so a single small item is usually best done alongside anything else the roof needs. Call and we'll tell you honestly. What does a roof repair cost in Shalford?It depends on the cause, the covering and the access. We inspect the roof and give you a free detailed written quote. Do you offer emergency roof repairs?We are not a 24-hour emergency service. We work Monday to Saturday 8am to 6:30pm and Sunday 9am to 4pm. Can you work on natural slate?Yes. Slate repairs, valley and flashing work and new slate roofs are all normal work for us. Can you repair a Victorian roof rather than replace the roof it?Where the covering still has life in it, yes.

Decking is checked, falls corrected, and the new roof carries a 15 year workmanship guarantee. What guarantee do I get?25 years' workmanship on tiled roofs, 15 years on flat roofs, 5 years on guttering and fascia work, 10 years on chimney and leadwork, written on your quote. Are you insured?Yes: £2m public liability and £10m employers' liability.
