Roof issues in Saltash.
Slipped, cracked and missing tiles or slates
This is a particularly relevant problem for Saltash due to the older age of many properties with slate roofs, which can suffer from "nail sickness", where deteriorating nail heads and weathering eventually cause slates to become loose and slip.
Ridge and verge deterioration
Because of Saltash’s exposed location on the Cornish side of the Tamar, deteriorated mortar at exposed ridges and verges can eventually let wind-driven rain into the roof structure, so verge mortar maintenance and ridge-tile repairs should be a priority.
Leaking roofs and water ingress
Saltash’s location in one of the UK's wettest areas and its elevated position on the River Tamar mean homes here suffer from roof water ingress, causing water staining, mould, and damaged coverings.
Chimney and lead-flashing failures
Leaking chimneys and defective lead flashings commonly cause damp in older properties, especially in Saltash and across South East Cornwall, where wind-driven rain can drive moisture into buildings.
