Emergency roof repairs in Slough

It depends on what has failed, the height and the access. Checkatrade’s Slough price guide (viewed October 2026) puts emergency roofing services at £318 to £978, with an average of £553. We tell you the make-safe cost before we start, and the permanent repair is quoted separately in writing.

Call straight away if water is coming through a ceiling or light fitting, tiles or ridge tiles have fallen, a ceiling is sagging with water, or a flat roof has split. On the other hand, a small damp patch that isn’t spreading can usually wait for a booked repair in the next dry spell.

A roofer who finds where the water actually gets in, not just where it shows on the ceiling. Look for written quotes, photos of the problem, real reviews you can check on Google, and proof of public liability insurance. Be wary of anyone who knocks on the door after a storm.

We stop the water first. For instance, that might mean re-seating slipped tiles, sealing a failed joint or fixing sheeting down with battens so it holds in the wind. Please don’t try this yourself on a wet or icy roof. After all, a temporary repair is there to keep the house dry until the permanent fix.

Our emergency line is open 24/7. Our van comes from Hayes, about 10 miles away along the M4, so most Slough addresses are around 20 to 30 minutes away depending on traffic. Tell us your postcode and we’ll give you an honest arrival time.

Yes. Storm damage is often covered by home insurance, while wear and tear usually isn’t. We give you dated photos and a written report of what failed and what the repair involves, which most insurers ask for. Check your own policy, and tell your insurer about the damage as soon as you can.

First, move valuables, put a bucket under the drip and keep people out of any room where the ceiling is sagging. If water is near lights or sockets, switch that circuit off at the consumer unit. Don’t climb onto the roof or a ladder in wind or rain. Finally, photograph the damage for your insurer.
