Accurate, Honest Leak Detection by a Trade‑Qualified Roof Tiler

A leaking tiled roof can be stressful especially when you can’t see where the water is coming from. Leaks often start small, but they can quickly lead to ceiling damage, mould, and costly repairs if left untreated.

Daniel is a trade‑qualified roof tiler with over 20 years specialising in tiled roof leak detection, repairs, and storm‑damage assessments. He finds the real cause of the leak, explains it clearly, and fixes it properly no guesswork, no patch jobs.

If you want a leak found and repaired with care and accuracy, you’re in the right place.

Why Tiled Roofs Leak

Tiled roofs are durable, but they have many components that can fail over time. Most leaks come from:

  • Cracked or slipped tiles

  • Failed pointing or bedding

  • Rusting or blocked valleys

  • Broken ridge caps

  • Storm damage

  • Poor previous repairs

  • Flashing issues around chimneys or walls

A leak rarely appears directly under the problem area water can travel several metres before showing inside. That’s why proper leak detection matters.

Once the source is found, Daniel explains the repair options honestly no upselling, no pressure.

Why Choose a Leak Detection Specialist (Not a General Roofer)

Leak detection on tiled roofs is a skill that comes from years of hands‑on experience. A specialist understands:

  • how water travels under tiles

  • how bedding and pointing fail

  • how valleys overflow

  • how storms lift ridge caps

  • how older tiles absorb water

General roofers often guess or patch the wrong area, which leads to repeat leaks.

Common Leak Repairs

  • Tile replacement

  • Repointing & re‑bedding

  • Valley replacement

  • Flashing repairs

  • Whirlybird replacement

  • Storm‑damage tile realignment
