Shared roofs
Exactly where your roof ends and next door's begins, and how the two join.
Southall is next door to us and one of the areas we work in most. Leaking extension roofs, slipped tiles, gutters and re-roofs on terraced streets.
We work out of 43 Hudson Road, Hayes, UB3 5EL. Ring first and we will tell you honestly how soon we can get to Southall.

Southall is dense Victorian and Edwardian terraces plus interwar housing, and it has seen more extension work than almost anywhere else in West London. Side returns, rear additions and outbuildings mean a great many small flat roofs butting into brickwork at awkward angles.
Where a flat extension roof meets the house wall, the upstand has to run high enough behind a proper flashing. Much of what we are called out to fix has the waterproofing simply stopped at the wall face and sealed over.

Usually, but the repair has to deal with the upstand and flashing rather than the surface. Send a photo of the junction from ground level and we can tell you what we are probably looking at.
