Roof Repairs in Bishop Auckland & County Durham

Roof repairs done right, first time

A small roof problem has a habit of becoming an expensive one. Water that gets past a cracked tile or failed flashing doesn’t stop at the roof — it tracks into timbers, insulation and ceilings, and the repair bill grows with it. The sensible response is a prompt, professional inspection before the next spell of North East weather.

Breward Roofing has been repairing roofs across County Durham since 1945. We find the actual cause of the problem — not just the nearest symptom — and put it right with materials that match your existing roof.

Common repairs we carry out

• Leaks & water ingress — traced to source and sealed properly
• Slipped, cracked or missing tiles & slates
• Ridge & hip repairs — re-bedding and re-pointing loose ridge tiles
• Flashing & lead work around chimneys, valleys and abutments
• Storm & wind damage — including insurance work
• Guttering, fascia & soffit repairs that protect the roof edge

Emergency & storm damage

If a storm has lifted tiles or opened up a leak, call us as early as you can. We’ll make the roof safe and watertight, then agree the permanent repair — and if you’re claiming, we deal with your insurer directly.

Repair, or replace?

Sometimes a repair is exactly right; sometimes an ageing roof is telling you it’s reaching the end. Because we’re a family firm that relies on repeat custom, we give you a straight answer either way — never a hard sell. If a repair will genuinely see you good for years, that’s what we’ll recommend.
