Common Roofing Emergencies in Gibraltar

Some of the most frequent reasons we're called out across Gibraltar:

Storm and Wind Damage

At Gibraltar the weather arrives across open sea and saltmarsh with nothing in its way, so a gale can strip tiles, ridges and verges from a lone house quickly. We come out to make it safe as quickly as we can within our hours, then repair it properly.

Fallen Debris Damage

Coastal wind can bring down aerials, old chimney pots and branches from the hedges and shelter belts around isolated properties. We check the felt and timbers under the impact, not just the broken tiles.

Sudden Leaks

Storm-driven rain at Gibraltar can find a gap in a verge or a flashing that has been fine for years. We find where the water is getting in, stop it, and plan a permanent fix.

Slipped or Missing Tiles

When salt air has corroded the nails on an exposed roof, tiles tend to come away in groups during a gale. We refix or replace them and check the rest of that slope before we leave.

FAQs about Emergency Roofing in Gibraltar

Does Gibraltar's coastal position mean more storm damage?

Yes, salt-laden wind and exposed weather off the coast make storm damage more common here than further inland. Call us when it happens and we'll get out as quickly as we safely can within our hours, 7 days a week from 7am to 7pm.

I'm not at my Gibraltar property and a neighbour says tiles have come off. Can you help?

Yes. Call us, tell us where the property is and how we can get to the roof, and we'll go out as soon as we safely can within our hours. We'll send you photos of what we find and what we've done to make it safe.

Should I go up and cover the roof myself until you arrive?

No. Roofs are dangerous in wind and rain, and an exposed roof by the sea even more so. Stay on the ground, keep away from anywhere tiles could fall, and put buckets under any leaks inside.

Will my insurance cover storm damage?

Many home insurance policies cover storm damage. We're not insurers, but we can take photos and give you a written account of the damage and the repair, so you have what you need to support a claim.

Do you offer a guarantee on emergency work?

We stand behind our work. Talk to us about the specific job in Gibraltar and we'll explain what's covered before we start.

Do you charge just to come out?

Call us and we'll be straight with you about any call-out and what the repair is likely to involve before we do the work, so there are no surprises.
