Roof valley and leak repairs mean finding exactly where water is getting in and fixing that point properly. Valleys, where two roof slopes meet, carry more water than any other part of the roof and are a very common source of leaks. ### Who it's for It's for homeowners with a leak they can't pin down, staining on ceilings, water in the loft after heavy rain, or a valley that has been patched and is leaking again. ### When you need it Get a leak looked at as soon as you notice staining, drips, damp smells in the loft, or water running where it shouldn't. Adam F. said Craig 'sorted our roof valley from leaks'. ### Why professional help matters Water travels. It can enter at one point and appear several feet away inside. Finding the real source takes experience, and Craig takes photos to show you what he's found. The cost of waiting ## What Happens If It's Ignored A small leak is cheap to fix. The same leak left for a season can mean new plasterboard, insulation and timbers. ### Risks and damage - Ceilings stain, sag and can eventually collapse. - Insulation gets wet and stops working. - Roof timbers exposed to repeated wetting deteriorate. - Mould and damp smells develop in the loft and rooms below. ### Common mistakes - Fixing the stain inside without fixing the roof. - Assuming the leak is directly above where the water shows. - Patching a valley with sealant instead of repairing it. - Waiting for the weather to improve before calling. Our process ## How Craig Does the Job - 01 ### Step 1 – Inspection Craig visits, looks at the roof himself and takes photos so you can see what he sees. - 02 ### Step 2 – Diagnosis He explains what's wrong, what it will take to fix, and gives you a clear, free, no-obligation quote. - 03 ### Step 3 – Service execution The source of the leak is traced and repaired properly, whether that's a valley, slipped slates, lead or another detail. - 04 ### Step 4 – Testing and checks Craig checks the repair and the surrounding area so the water has nowhere else to go. - 05 ### Step 5 – Completion and guarantee The site is left tidy and the work is backed by a guarantee of up to 15 years. What you get ## The Benefits ### Speed John H. said Craig 'had my roof problem sorted out swiftly'. ### Safety Work is covered by public liability insurance up to £10 million. ### Longevity Repairing the real cause, not the symptom, and work comes with guarantees of up to 15 years. ### Cost savings Early repair prevents the far bigger cost of damaged ceilings, insulation and timbers. ### Reliability Customers say Craig arrives as arranged and is honest about what he finds. - ### Peace of mind Photos show you the problem and the fix. In detail ## Roof Valley & Leak Repairs: The Detail ### Why valleys leak Valleys collect water from two slopes at once. Over time the lining can fail, debris can build up, and slates at the edges can slip, all letting water through. ### Tracing a leak Because water runs along timbers and membranes before dripping, the source is often not directly above the stain. Craig inspects the roof to find where it's actually getting in. ### Lead valley repairs Many valleys are lined with lead. Repairs to lead valleys are carried out alongside Craig's wider lead work. ### Other common leak points Beyond valleys, leaks often come from slipped slates, failed flashings, chimney junctions and poor previous repairs. All of these are dealt with. ### Leak repairs across the area Available across Perthshire and Angus including Perth, Blairgowrie, Dundee, Pitlochry, Alyth, Coupar Angus and Aberfeldy. ### How water finds its way in Water rarely drips straight down. It runs along the underside of slates, along membranes and down timbers before it finds a way through, which is why a stain on your ceiling may be several feet from where the roof is actually leaking. Tracing it properly is the first and most important part of the repair. ### Why valleys are vulnerable A valley takes water from two roof slopes at once, so it carries more water than any other part of the roof. Leaves and moss build up, linings wear, and the slates cut along each side of the valley can slip. Any of these can send water into the roof. ### Signs of a valley leak Damp or staining in the corner of a room below where two roof slopes meet, water marks in the loft along the line of the valley, and gutters overflowing at the bottom of the valley in heavy rain are all common signs. ### Repairs that last Covering a valley in sealant or roofing tape might stop a drip for a few weeks. A proper valley repair deals with the lining and the slates alongside it so the valley can carry water as it should. Adam F. had his valley sorted by Craig and plans to use him again for further repairs. ### What to do while you wait If you notice a leak, put a container under it, move belongings away, and take a photo of any staining so you can show Craig. If water is coming in heavily, phone rather than send the form; emergency repairs are available. ### What to expect from your free quote When you get in touch, Craig arranges a time to come and look at the roof. He'll go up, look at the problem properly and take photos so you can see exactly what he's seen, which matters on a part of your home you can't easily check yourself. You'll then get a clear price for the work, with no pressure and no obligation to go ahead. If something can be repaired rather than replaced, he'll tell you. If the roof is beyond repair, he'll explain why. ### Why a small, owner-led team makes a difference Ericht Roofing is a small, hands-on team led by Craig. That means the person who quotes your job is the person responsible for doing it, and the person you phone if you have a question. There's no hand-off between a salesperson and a subcontractor you've never met. Customers pick up on this in their reviews: they describe Craig as honest, genuine, punctual and hard working, and many come back to him for further work. ### Preparing for the work Before work starts, Craig will talk you through what's happening and roughly how long it will take. It helps to clear access to the side of the house where the work is being done, move cars away from the driveway if materials need to be dropped there, and let neighbours know if access passes their property. Throughout the job the team keeps the site tidy, a point customers mention again and again. Covering Perthshire, Angus, Perth, Blairgowrie, Dundee, Pitlochry, Alyth, Coupar Angus and Aberfeldy.
