A roofing emergency usually means something that needs immediate attention to stop further damage or keep your property safe. This could be a significant, active leak, lots of missing or broken tiles after a storm, a badly slipped slate that’s letting water in, or damage to your lead flashing around chimneys or valleys. Essentially, anything that puts your property at immediate risk of serious water damage or poses a safety hazard for residents or passers-by is an emergency.

When you’ve got a roof emergency, you need help fast. As your local roofer in York, we aim to offer a rapid response to urgent roof repair calls, especially for storm damage roof issues or severe leaks. We'll get to you as quickly as we can to assess the situation and carry out immediate temporary fixes to make your roof safe and watertight, preventing more damage before a full repair.

If your roof is leaking badly after a storm, your first priority is safety. Try to contain the water with buckets or towels, and if water is near electrical fittings, turn off the power to that area if it's safe to do so. Then, don't delay – give DSR Roofing York a call straight away. We specialise in storm damage roof repairs and can quickly come out to diagnose the issue, make a temporary repair, and then plan for a lasting solution.

We understand that even a small problem can quickly become a big one.

Finding the exact source of a roof leak, especially one that only shows itself intermittently, needs a keen eye and experience. Our leak detection process involves a thorough inspection of your roof, looking for common culprits like cracked tiles, degraded pointing, damaged lead flashing, or issues with your roof valleys. We use our many years of experience to trace the water's path and pinpoint the entry point, making sure we fix the real problem, not just the symptoms.

Yes, we do. Problems with your chimney, such as cracked mortar, loose bricks, or deteriorated lead flashing around its base, are very common causes of leaks and can definitely be urgent.
