Common roof problems in Guildford
Guildford has older property in and around the town centre, plenty of tile-hung Surrey vernacular, clay plain tiles on steep pitches, and conservation constraints in parts. Newer estates on the edges use standard interlocking tiles.
Tile-hung walls and the junction where they meet the roof are a Surrey-specific detail. Water getting behind hanging tiles at that junction shows up inside as a damp wall rather than a ceiling stain, so it regularly gets misdiagnosed as rising damp or a cavity problem.
