Roof Repairs in Edgeley, Stockport
Stockport Council describes Castle Street in Edgeley as being lined with traditional Victorian terraced buildings, with varied materials and building heights.
Different heights create places where roofs meet walls
A lower roof beside a taller wall needs sound flashing and clear drainage. Cracked pointing above the flashing can also send water behind an otherwise sound lead detail.
Terraced buildings can hide the route of an overflow
A blocked outlet may make a gutter spill at the lowest point several metres away. Watching the run during rain can show whether the problem is the outlet, a failed joint or a gutter that has lost its fall.
Modern flat roofs need a different inspection from older pitched roofs
The Council notes modern flat-roofed structures within the district centre as well as Victorian buildings. Flat-roof faults are more likely to involve outlets, perimeter trims, seams and wall upstands than slipped slates or tiles.
