WE NEED A FEW MORE TRADESMEN TO GET THIS FAMILY BACK UNDER A ROOF

Recently, a local family lost their home to a devastating fire.

We’ve decided to step in and carry out the roofing work completely free of charge. Our aim is simple, get the roof back on, get the building watertight, and help give this family one less thing to worry about.

We’ve already had some incredible support from local businesses, with scaffolders offering their scaffold free of charge and suppliers helping with donated materials. It’s amazing to see people coming together to help.
Shout out to LX2 scaffolding for offering a full wrap round scaffold.
Shout out to SIG roofing for offering the supply of roofing materials and also to Woodstone Joinery for offering help too.

Now we’re looking for a few more tradesmen who might be able to spare a day, a few days, or even just whatever time they can to help us get the job completed.

🔨 Joiners
🧱 Builders
⚡ Electricians
🔧 Plumbers
and any other trades who may be able to lend a hand.

You don’t have to commit to the whole job. Even a few days of your time could make a massive difference.

If you’re a tradesman who can help, or you know someone who might be able to, please get in touch, leave a comment or share this post.

Let’s see what we can achieve when local trades come together. 🤝

Let’s get this family back under a roof. 🏠❤️

*Loose Ridge Tiles*

Looks fine from the ground, but get up close and it’s a different story 👀

These ridge tiles might not look too bad from below, but on closer inspection they’re actually loose.

This is why some roofing problems are difficult to spot from ground level.

In this case, the ridges would benefit from being secured with a dry ridge system, which mechanically fixes the ridge tiles in place without relying on mortar.

If you’re unsure about the condition of your ridge tiles, it’s worth getting them properly checked before loose tiles turn into a bigger problem.

When Repairs Stop Making Sense*

Sometimes a roof gets to the point where ongoing repairs just don’t make financial sense.

On this stone slate roof, we found slipped slates caused by deteriorated battens and old oak pegs, broken slates, decayed mortar around the chimney and loose ridge mortar.

When several issues are appearing across the same roof, it can be better to put that repair budget towards a full re-roof rather than keep patching different areas.

Why leadwork needs room to move

This is a good example of why lead detailing matters 👇

The lead apron below this dormer has been fitted in one long section and has split as the lead has moved over time.

At the corner, there also isn’t enough side lap and cover, which has left an opening in the leadwork and created a potential route for water ingress.

The correct repair here involves more than covering the damaged area. The dormer cladding will need to come off so the existing leadwork can be removed and the lead aprons and soakers renewed properly.

Getting these details right helps the lead accommodate natural movement while keeping vulnerable roof junctions protected from the weather.

🏠 Thinking about having your roof replaced?

Maybe it's getting older, you've already had a few repairs done, or you're starting to notice more problems appearing.

At some point, it can be worth looking at whether continuing to repair the roof still makes sense, or whether it's time to renew it properly.

🌦️ The weather’s changing... is your roof ready?

A quick roof check now could save a lot of hassle later.

With autumn and winter on the way, now is a good time to sort any roofing problems you’ve been putting off.

Maybe you’ve noticed a tile has slipped.

Maybe there’s a damp patch that appears after heavy rain.

Or perhaps you can see daylight through the roof when you’re in the loft.

Other common issues include loose slates and missing cement around ridge tiles.

These are all signs your roof may need some attention before the wetter weather arrives.

If something doesn’t look right, get in touch with Crossley Roofing Ltd. We carry out roof repairs across Bradford, Halifax, Queensbury and the surrounding areas.
