When a storm hits at 2 am, you don't want to wait until Monday morning for a call back. That's why we offer a rapid emergency call-out service across Launceston and the surrounding villages. Our first priority is always safety and containment—stopping the water ingress so your furniture and electrics stay dry. Whether it's securing a loose lead flashing or providing temporary covers after significant wind damage, we act fast to prevent further structural issues. Have you noticed a rattling sound in the wind or a gutter that's suddenly come loose? Don't wait for the next downpour to see if it holds up; let us give it a professional look-over now.

The most common victim of a Cornish storm is usually the traditional slate. High winds can easily get under a slightly loose 'peg' slate and lift it right off. Once one goes, the wind has a 'key' into the rest of your roof. We provide expert slate repair and tile replacement, ensuring the new materials match your existing roof as closely as possible. We also specialise in ridge tile re-bedding. Those tiles at the very peak of your roof take the brunt of the force, and if the mortar has aged, they can become dangerous projectiles in a storm. We'll secure them properly using modern techniques that are designed to last decades, not just until the next gale.

Dealing with insurance companies after a storm can be just as exhausting as the damage itself. They often require detailed evidence before they'll even consider a claim. To make things easier for you, we can conduct drone roof surveys that capture high-resolution images of the damage from angles you simply can't see from the ground or a ladder. This provides a clear, professional record for your insurance provider, often speeding up the process significantly. We'll provide a transparent, no-obligation quote that details exactly what's needed to make your home safe again, giving you the peace of mind that you're in expert hands.

Chimney stacks are often the most exposed part of a Launceston home, making them a prime target for severe weather. If the pointing is old, the wind can literally vibrate the bricks loose, leading to leaks or even collapse. We carry out comprehensive chimney repairs and re-pointing to ensure everything is rock solid. We also pay close attention to lead flashing—those vital seals around joins and valleys. If these are pulled back by the wind, water will find its way in almost instantly. Our team ensures your leadwork is dressed down properly and secured, using salt-resistant fixings that can handle our unique coastal climate.
