Local roofing problems ## Common roof problems in Peebles The age of the buildings, the local weather and the way homes in Peebles were built all shape the problems Robert sees most often. Knowing them helps him find the cause of a leak and fix it properly. ### Older slate roofs Many Peebles roofs still have slates that have been on for a century or more. Nails rust through, slates slip and the boards underneath can rot, letting water into lofts. ### Tall chimneys and dormers Victorian villas often have big chimney stacks and several dormers. Each one has lead flashings that wear out over time and are a common source of leaks. ### Damp valley weather Sitting in the Tweed valley, surrounded by hills and trees, Peebles gets plenty of rain. Moss builds up quickly and leaves block gutters and valleys. ### Cold winters Peebles gets harder frosts than Edinburgh. Water that gets into cracked slates, pointing or chimney mortar freezes and makes the damage worse each winter. Left alone, even a small defect can let water into insulation, timbers and ceilings. If you have noticed damp patches, slipped slates or tiles, or water in the loft, it is worth getting the roof looked at sooner rather than later. ### Signs your Peebles roof needs attention Some warning signs are easy to spot from the ground or from inside the house. Look out for slates or tiles lying in the garden or gutter, gaps along the ridge, moss building up on the roof slopes, gutters overflowing in heavy rain, and staining or bubbling paint on upstairs ceilings. In the loft, daylight showing through, damp patches on the timbers or a musty smell all suggest water is getting in somewhere. If you spot any of these on your home in Peebles, call Robert and describe what you are seeing. He will tell you straight whether it sounds urgent, arrange to inspect the roof himself and explain the options before giving you a fixed price. There is no obligation to go ahead, and you will never be pressured into work you do not need.
