Yellow or brown staining on ceilings often means water is getting through the roof above. Don't wait — it gets worse with every rainfall.
Finding tiles or pieces of slate in the garden after wind is a clear sign that your roof has been compromised and needs immediate attention.
Visible from the ground. If the mortar along your ridge line looks cracked, green or flaking, water is getting in — it's just not showing inside yet.
Heavy moss growth retains moisture and lifts tiles. It also signals that your roof surface may be breaking down underneath.
If you can see pinpricks of light through the roof boards in your loft, your roof is open to the elements. Call us for a free inspection.
A compromised roof allows heat to escape and cold to enter. If your heating bills have risen unexpectedly, your roof insulation may be wet or damaged.

Farnham has an unusually diverse housing stock for a Surrey market town. The Georgian townhouses along The Borough have clay peg tiles that require specialist sourcing. The Victorian terraces around South Street and Hale Road typically have Welsh slate roofs that need careful matching. The 1930s semis in Wrecclesham and Rowledge more often have concrete plain tiles prone to cracking with age.
We know these roof types inside out because we've been repairing them across Farnham since 2003. We carry a wider range of tile types than most local roofers specifically because of the variety across the GU9 and GU10 postcodes.
The Surrey Hills location means Farnham roofs are exposed to more driving rain and wind than many surrounding areas. North-facing slopes in Wrecclesham and the older properties around Castle Street see accelerated moss growth and faster mortar deterioration than the averages suggest. We factor this in when recommending repair versus replacement.
Call us and describe what you can see — we'll give you an honest assessment and, if needed, arrange a free roof inspection. Most quotes are provided same day.

"Found them via Google searching for a roofer in Farnham. They came out, gave me an honest quote, and repaired a leaking valley that two others had told me needed a full re-roof. Saved me thousands."
"Very professional. Replaced all the cracked tiles on our Victorian terrace in Hale and repointed the ridge line. They matched the original slate perfectly. Excellent job."
"Had a persistent leak above the bathroom that three previous roofers couldn't find. Farnham Roofing diagnosed it within 20 minutes — failed flashing behind the chimney stack. Fixed same day."
Minor repairs such as replacing a few tiles or resealing a flashing typically cost £150–£400. Larger repairs like valley replacements or full ridge repointing range from £400–£900. We provide a free written quote before any work starts.
Most standard repairs are completed within a single day. Larger jobs such as replacing a full valley or re-ridging a section may take 2–3 days. We'll give you a realistic timeline when we quote.
If your roof is under 20 years old with isolated damage, a repair is almost always the right choice. If it's over 20–25 years with widespread deterioration or multiple leak points, a full replacement may be more cost-effective. We'll give you an honest assessment — we have no incentive to upsell.
Yes. All our repair work comes with a written 10-year workmanship guarantee. If the same issue recurs within that period, we'll return and fix it at no charge.
No call-out fee. No obligation. Just an honest assessment from a local roofer who knows Farnham's housing stock inside out.
