Sprowston sits just north-east of Norwich and its mix of post-war semis, bungalows and newer builds means roof repair needs vary quite a bit street by street.
The large number of 1950s and 1960s properties in Sprowston - particularly along Blue Boar Lane and around the older parts of Wroxham Road - typically have concrete interlocking tiles that are now reaching the end of their lifespan. Cracked or porous tiles let in moisture long before they visibly slip, so if you've noticed damp patches on a ceiling or in the loft insulation, a tile condition survey is a sensible first step. We also see a lot of failed felt beneath older tile beds, which needs addressing before internal damage spreads.
Bungalows are common throughout Sprowston, and their low-pitched roofs can suffer from wind lift on exposed ridge sections. We re-bed and re-point ridges using flexible mortar that handles the thermal movement these roofs experience through a Norfolk winter. We're around five miles from Sprowston and can typically offer a quick turnaround on surveys and repairs.
