Hole In Your Roof?
Posted on 9th May 2025 at 09:48
Getting a hole in your roof doesn’t happen often, thankfully, but how does it happen?
We have only come across two causes so far which can do this;
1 - Something dropping on your roof, such as (a) debris from a taller, neighbouring building or (b) an overhanging tree branch that has broken off, or
2 – a small localised whirlwind which can ‘lift’ your roof slates/tiles.
It doesn’t really matter how it happened, what matters is how are you going to deal with it!
First, it’ll be a bit of a shock, discovering that you have a hole in your roof.
Second, you think it’ll be expensive, time consuming and messy to sort out.
Third, where do you start looking to solve your broken roof?
Here at High Reaching Solutions, we not only supply tracked spider access platforms, with or without qualified and experienced operators, we also undertake works such as roof and gutter repairs and also gutter cleaning. The accompanying photos are of a property in Pickering, North Yorkshire where the owner had discovered that they had a hole in their roof, it could be seen from across the road. Their first call was to their ‘decorator/handyman’, who immediately suggested to them to call us, which they did.
