Most of Portsmouth, including Southsea, sits on Portsea Island in the Solent, which makes it the only city in England that isn’t primarily on the mainland. It is also the most densely populated city in the UK, and Southsea in particular is made up largely of Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing. On closely packed terraced streets, roofs, chimney stacks and gutters are often shared or joined with next door, so a problem on one house can affect its neighbours too.
With over 25 years in business and more than 7,000 roofing projects completed, we give straightforward advice: what we’ve found, what it means for your home, and whether a repair will do or something bigger is needed.
Roofing Services Across Portsmouth
Roof Repairs
We carry out roof repairs of every size in Portsmouth, from replacing a single slipped slate to tracing a leak back through the loft to where it starts. Ridge tiles, valleys, flashing and the joins between neighbouring roofs are all common weak points, and we repair the cause rather than just the symptom. The Roof Repairs & Maintenance page explains more.
Slate and Tile Roof Replacement
Many Victorian terraces were originally roofed in natural slate, and when the slates or the fixings holding them have failed across a whole roof, replacement is usually the longer-lasting answer. We re-roof in slate and tile, including the Victorian and Edwardian terraces found across Southsea, and we’ll explain your material choices and how the work will be carried out on a terraced street before anything is agreed.
Flat Roofing
Rear extensions, dormers and garages across the city often have flat roofs. We repair and replace them in EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass and torch-on felt, with a guarantee of up to 20 years on new flat roofs, depending on the system. See Flat Roofing in Portsmouth for more.
Guttering, Fascias and Soffits
We repair and replace guttering with Eurocell products and fit new uPVC fascias and soffits with a 10-year guarantee. There’s more detail on our Gutter Repairs in Portsmouth and Fascia and Soffit Replacement in Portsmouth pages.
Chimneys and Leadwork
Chimney stacks on terraced houses are often shared between two homes, and the lead flashing where they meet the roof is a frequent source of leaks. We repoint stacks, renew flashing and repair chimney problems as part of a wider job or on their own. Read what causes a leaking chimney for more.
Emergency Roof Repairs in Portsmouth
A sudden leak, storm damage or tiles lifted by high winds off the Solent can’t always wait. Our 24-hour emergency roof repair service covers Portsmouth and Southsea. Call 07863 768956, tell us what’s happened, and we’ll talk you through what needs to happen next. Existing customers are given priority. For practical steps to take while you wait, read our leaking roof guide. After a storm, use our roof storm damage checklist.
Things to Know About Roofs on Terraced Houses
- Your roof may be joined to your neighbour’s. Where roof slopes, chimneys or gutters run across two or more houses, water getting in on one side can show up next door, and a proper repair sometimes needs access to both.
- Talk to your neighbours early. If scaffolding or work near a shared chimney is needed, letting next door know in advance makes the job smoother for everyone. We’re happy to speak to neighbours directly.
- Slate and tile behave differently. Natural slate can last a very long time, but the nails holding each slate can corrode, letting slates slip. Replacing individual slates is often possible; widespread slipping usually points to a re-roof.
- Check the valleys and back addition. Terraces often have a rear roof over the kitchen or bathroom that joins the main roof, and those junctions are common leak points.
