Hi Lesley Roofing, I'd like a quote.
This is a starting point for your message. The details are settled with Lesley Roofing when the job is discussed.
Roofing and house repair services
Lesley Roofing works on the whole roof, the spots on it that give trouble, and the house underneath. The drawing shows where each kind of work sits.
Roof covering
Re-roofing
When a roof is past patching, Lesley Roofing redoes it instead of covering the same problem again. Re-roofing suits South African homes where the leaks keep moving or the covering has simply worn out.
Problem spots
Roof repairs
Trouble often starts at the ridge, in a valley where two slopes meet, at the flashing around a chimney or wall, or along the gutter line. Say where yours is and the roof can be looked at properly.

Repairs for houses that are falling apart
Lesley Roofing also takes on medium-sized repair work on houses that are falling apart: the kind of job that is bigger than a quick fix but does not call for a full rebuild.
From first look to a sealed roof
Most roof jobs that Lesley Roofing takes on, big or small, move through the same three stages.
- 1
Look at the roof
A roofing job starts with a proper look at the roof and at the house below it, so you know what the work involves before it begins.
- 2
Repair or redo
Depending on what that look shows, the trouble spots are repaired or the whole roof is redone, along with any repair work the house itself needs.
- 3
Seal and finish
The last stage is sealing the joins and edges where water usually finds its way in, so the roof sheds rain the way it should.
How to trace a roof leak before you call
A few notes from inside the house make a roofing quote far easier to give. None of this needs a ladder.
Note where the stain is
Which room, and roughly how far from the outside wall. Water often travels along the roof before it drips, so the stain is a starting clue rather than the exact spot.
Watch when it leaks
Does it show in every rain, or only when the wind drives rain from one side? That detail points to different parts of the roof.
Take two photos
One of the ceiling, and one of the roof above that room taken from the yard or the street. Stay off the roof itself.
A photo from ground level, like this one, is enough to show the roof above the leak.
