Repair Your Roof in Cambridge
While many of you may have your fingers crossed for a long hot summer so you can enjoy picnics in the park, BBQs in the garden and days at the beach, the team here at Alpha Roofing Cambridge we are crossing our fingers for a different reason. We want a long hot summer like you do. However, we want the warm and dry conditions so we have the perfect weather for repairing roofs in Cambridge.
As with most things in the ‘home maintenance’ area – prevention is better than cure. It is much more cost-effective to repair something, like a roof, then ignore the damage and wait until the roof falls through, which will be far more costly to repair.
You may have seen a tile come off your roof in the colder weather? This is a really easy roof repair in Cambridge for us. It can be fixed quite quickly and affordably too. We can also check that the tiles around it are secure and complete any more repairs while we are there.
However, if you leave the missing tile and just forget about it, then a few more come off over the next few months it can become a very big and a very expensive problem.
Many people think that the winter months are the time of the year when their roof takes the most punishment from the elements, it is not entirely true. Did you know that there are 4 times as many thunderstorms in the summer as there are in the winter?
While the total amount of rain that falls in the summer months is less than the winter months, it is the torrential downpours that can be the problem in the summer.
