A Roofer Thetford is an integral part of the structure of your home, keeping it safe from water damage and pests. When you encounter issues with the shingles, gutters or the roofline itself it’s important to contact an experienced professional to make the necessary repairs. The team at Networx can connect you with a local roofing contractor to get the job done swiftly and affordably, whether it’s replacing a small area of your roofline or an entire roof replacement. They can work on all types of roofing materials including flat roofs, slate and thatched roofs and metal roofs.

The most common issue is a leaking roof which can be caused by a variety of factors such as age, weather and debris on the roof. If left untreated this can lead to damp and mould which can be dangerous for health. Other problems include cracked shingles, shingle edges which are curled or bald spots where the granules have worn off. This is often a sign that the roof needs to be replaced.

Blocked gutters or downpipes are another common problem as they can cause water to flow over brickwork and into the property causing damp issues. In some cases, it is also a fire risk if the downpipes are made from timber or flammable materials such as lead.

If you are replacing your roof, it’s important to hire a roofing contractor that is registered with an accredited scheme such as the NFRC or Competent Roofer scheme as this shows that they are dedicated to their trade and work to professional standards. You can check this by using the NFRC member search or the Competent Roofer search.
