The village has period cottages near The Street and St Mary's, family houses on the roads between, and working farm buildings towards Ripley and East Clandon. Exposure is the defining condition here. Roofs above open fields take wind from every direction, and mortar-bedded ridge and verge tiles are usually the first thing it finds. Farm buildings and outbuildings often carry flat roofs that go uninspected until something underneath gets wet. ### A few miles from our base Close enough that a small repair is worth booking on its own. ### Exposed, open-ground roofs Wind-lifted ridges and verges refixed mechanically with dry systems so the same detail doesn't fail again. ### Period cottages Older coverings, steep pitches and hand-dressed lead repaired in keeping with the building. ### Barns, stables and outbuildings Low-pitch and flat coverings on working buildings, assessed honestly for repair or replacement.

Workmanship guarantees on work in West HorsleyTiled roofs25 yearsFlat roofs15 yearsGuttering & fascia work5 yearsChimney & leadwork10 years Local roofs, local problems ## Common West Horsley roof problems Exposure, older village buildings and working outbuildings account for most of what we're called to here. ### Ridge and verge tiles lost to wind Above open fields the wind gets under the edges of a roof. A dry ridge and verge system clamps each tile mechanically and ventilates the ridge as well. ### Old felt and sheeting on outbuildings Barns, stables and garaging often have roofs patched for years rather than replaced. We look at the deck and structure and give you a straight answer on repair or replace the roof. ### Lead detailing on cottages Where a roof meets old brick, stone or render, lead does the work. Old lead splits along its folds. We re-dress it into a raked joint so the detail sheds water properly. ### Slipping tiles on post-war housing Family houses between the older parts of the village reach the age where fixings fail before the tiles do. We assess the battens and give you a straight answer. ### Gutters overwhelmed in autumn Tree-lined lanes and field debris fill gutters quickly. Clearing and resetting the fall deals with the cause and the damage together. ### Chimney damp on exposed stacks A stack on open ground is wet on more sides for longer. Pointing erodes and flaunching cracks. Repointing and new flaunching stops the water where it enters. How the job runs ## The same six steps on every West Horsley 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 West Horsley ## Frequently asked questions Do you cover West Horsley?Yes. We're based in Bookham, a few miles from West Horsley, and we cover East Horsley too. Will you take on a one-off repair?Yes. We're close enough that a single tile, flashing or gutter joint is worth doing. What does a roof repair cost in West Horsley?It depends on the cause, the covering and the access. We inspect and give you a free detailed written quote. Do you offer emergency call-outs?We are not a 24-hour emergency service. We work Monday to Saturday 8am to 6:30pm and Sunday 9am to 4pm. Can you re-roof an exposed property?Yes, and the fixing specification matters more than usual on open ground. Dry ridge and verge, correct nailing, and renewed lead detailing, guaranteed 25 years. Do you work on barns, stables and farm outbuildings?Yes. Low-pitch and flat coverings on working buildings are regular work, and often where the water is actually getting in. Can you repair a cottage roof rather than replace it?Where the covering still has life in it, yes. We repair and match, and say plainly when a new roof is the better value. 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. How often should gutters be cleared on a rural property?At least once a year after leaf fall, and twice where trees overhang the roof or hedging is close by.
