Honest advice
Do You Actually Need Roof Repairs?
Most roof problems announce themselves indoors before they are visible outside — a damp patch, a tide-mark on a ceiling, or a sudden draught in the loft. Here is how to tell a genuine repair from a job that has run past repairing. Weeke’s housing and setting mean some faults show up here more than elsewhere.
A damp patch or brown tide-mark on an upstairs ceiling after rain
A slipped, cracked or missing tile visible from the ground
Granules from the tile surface collecting in the gutter
Daylight visible through the roof in the loft
Mortar debris from the ridge or verge on the ground after wind
When it is not the answer: If more than a third of the covering has failed or tiles lift by hand across whole elevations (nail sickness), repairing tile-by-tile is money wasted — the roof is telling you it needs relaying, not patching. Read the full guide.

Weeke Property Profile

The process
The Weeke Roof Repairs Process, Step by Step
1. Free survey
We survey the whole roof and go into the loft, following the leak to its real source. Local knowledge of Weeke — its streets and its housing stock — informs every survey.
2. Written itemised quote
A fixed-price quote naming the exact fault, the materials and the access method.
3. Scheduling
We fix a start date to suit you; urgent leaks are attended round the clock.
4. The work
On the day, matched tiles or slates, stainless fixings, lead dressed to code where relevant — usually completed in a single visit.
5. Cleanup & sign-off
On completion, we sheet below the work, clear all debris, and issue a written workmanship guarantee before we leave.
Wet or high-wind days pause tiling and lead work — we build weather margin into every booking and never rush a wet roof. In Weeke we confirm the likely duration on the survey, once we have seen the access and the roof.
Access
Getting Safely onto Weeke Roofs
Most Weeke repairs run safely from a roof ladder or tower, which keeps costs down. Scaffold is specified for: chimney-side repairs, full valley rebuilds, three-storey terraces, and anything beyond a day at height - always itemised in your written quote, never a hidden extra, and we arrange it.
Weeke is dominated by 1930s clay-tile semis with front drives and straightforward access. Pavement scaffold and skip permits go through Winchester City Council; allow a few working days on streets like Fromond Road, Priors Dean Road where space is tight.
