Gutters overflowing, or roofline boards looking rotten.
Guttering is the least glamorous part of a roof and the one that causes the most expensive damage when it is ignored. An overflowing gutter does not just make a mess — it runs down the wall, saturates the brickwork and gets into the cavity. Damp that looks like rising damp on an inside wall is very often a gutter problem two storeys up.
Behind the gutter, the fascia board is what holds it up. Once that has rotted, the gutter starts to sag, the falls go wrong and the whole thing gets worse quickly.

Full-replacement prices assume the rafter feet are sound. If any need repairing we show that separately on the quote rather than burying it in the total.

We can, and it is cheaper, but we rarely recommend it. Capping traps whatever moisture is already in the timber and hides the rot rather than removing it. If the boards are genuinely sound it is a reasonable option — we will tell you honestly which you have once we can see them.
Once a year for most houses, twice if you have trees nearby. In Cardiff that usually means late autumn once the leaves are down. It is a cheap job that prevents a very expensive one.
Yes. A roof space needs airflow or moisture condenses on the underside of the membrane, drips onto the insulation and looks exactly like a leak. Sealing a soffit up solid is one of the most common causes of “my roof is leaking but the roofer cannot find anything”.
White is standard and the cheapest. Black, anthracite grey, rosewood and light oak woodgrain finishes are all available and add a modest amount. On a period property, black half-round guttering usually looks far more appropriate than white square-line.
For a full roofline replacement, normally yes. For gutter cleaning or a single joint repair a tower or ladder is usually enough. Either way it is priced in the quote.
