Storm damage and ridge repair
AP Roofing completed this storm damage and ridge repair job in Pound Hill, Crawley. The project adds to our local roof repair portfolio in RH10 and focuses on the ridge area at the top of the roof. The enhanced project photograph shows the AP team working at roof level with scaffold edge protection.
A completed ridge repair in Pound Hill
The ridge joins the upper edges of the roof slopes and is part of the roof’s weathering system. This Pound Hill job falls within our wind and storm damage roof repair service. It is a different project from our Pound Hill tiled roof renewal, which is also featured in the portfolio.
Keeping those jobs separate helps homeowners compare the type of work they need. A repair to an affected ridge area and replacement of a complete roof have different scopes, access arrangements and material requirements.
The ridge and neighbouring roof details
At the ridge, the units, supporting detail and adjoining covering form a connected roof junction. The photograph shows the working area, but does not document every concealed fixing or layer. For a similar repair, the recommendation should explain the affected run and how it connects to the retained roof.
A repair specification also needs to identify whether existing components can remain and which parts require attention. Our pitched roof repair work covers these junctions alongside the main tiled or slated covering.
What to do if wind has disturbed your roof
Loose ridge units or tiles can create a hazard below as well as exposing the roof to rain. Keep clear of the affected area and explain any visible loose material when contacting a roofer. Do not climb up to move it or attempt to photograph it from an unsafe position.
Our storm damage roof checklist sets out useful observations to make from a safe place. If you are keeping a record for an insurer, retain the photographs and correspondence and follow the insurer’s own instructions; each claim is assessed separately.
