Much of Woodley was built between the 1950s and the 1980s, and many of its homes are bungalows. A bungalow has a large roof for the size of the house, so the roof is a bigger share of the upkeep. It's also easier to see and reach, which makes problems simpler to spot. Many homes here have concrete interlocking tiles. These are hard-wearing, but the mortar bedding the ridge tiles and sealing the verges cracks and falls out with age. Rebedding the ridge, or fitting a dry ridge and dry verge system, is a common job.
Flat roofs are common across Woodley too, on garages, porches, dormers and the rear extensions many bungalows have had added. Older felt roofs often start to leak after 15 to 20 years. When they need replacing, EPDM rubber and GRP fibreglass are longer-lasting alternatives.
If your home was built before 2000, some older soffits, flat-roof sheets, garage roofs and gutters may contain asbestos cement. Don't drill, cut or break anything you're unsure about. Ask the roofer to check before work starts, and if they suspect asbestos, have it tested and follow the HSE's guidance.
Fascias, soffits and gutters from the original build are often due for replacement now. Doing them while the scaffolding or access tower is up for other roof work saves paying for access twice.
Ask whether access equipment is included in the quote. Ask the roofer to send photos of the problem from the roof, and check what guarantee comes with the work. Reviews on Trade Pilot come from real, invoiced jobs, so you can see which roofers have finished similar work for other homeowners.

Frequently Asked Questions
Replacing a few slipped tiles typically costs £150 to £500, with the top end usually meaning scaffolding is needed. Flat roof replacement is typically £60 to £120 per square metre, depending on the material.
Often, yes. Access is easier and scaffolding may not be needed for small jobs. A full re-roof can still be a big job, though, because a bungalow's roof is large for the size of the house.
Possibly, if they were fitted before 2000. Don't disturb them yourself. Ask your roofer to check, and if asbestos is suspected, have it tested and follow the HSE's guidance before any work.
Post your job on Trade Pilot with your postcode and any photos, and up to 3 vetted roofers can quote. Ask for photos of the problem, a written quote and details of any guarantee.
A single leak or worn flashing can usually be repaired. If the felt is blistered, cracked or split across a large area, or water sits on it after rain, replacement is usually better value.
