Serving Perth

Your Local Roofer in Perth

Ericht Roofing works on homes throughout Perth, from the city centre and the older streets near the North and South Inch out to Scone, Letham, Tulloch, Craigie, Oakbank and Bridge of Earn. Perth is the main city in Craig's patch and one of the places he's called to most often for flat roofs, slate repairs and leaks.

Getting to Perth

The business is based in Spittalfield, near Perth, a short drive north of Perth along the A984 and A93. Being this close means Craig can come out to look at your roof, take photos and give you a free quote without the job being treated as a long-distance trip.

Homes in Perth

Perth has a real mix of housing: Victorian and Edwardian sandstone villas with slate roofs and ornate chimneys, traditional tenements and terraces closer to the centre, and large estates of post-war and modern houses and bungalows on the edges of the city. Many homes have had kitchen extensions, garages and dormers added over the years, which is where flat roofs come in.

What Perth homeowners call us for

In Perth, the most common requests are flat roof replacements on extensions and garages, slipped slates on older villas and terraces, chimney lead work, and leaking valleys. Craig also puts right poor work left behind by other roofers.

Local roofing problems

Common Roof Problems in Perth

Property types

Older sandstone villas in Perth often have complex roofs with multiple valleys, dormers and large chimney stacks. Every one of those junctions relies on lead and careful slating to stay watertight, so they're where leaks usually start.

Climate

Perth sits in the Tay valley and gets its share of heavy rain and hard frosts. Water that gets under a slipped slate or into a split in a flat roof freezes and expands overnight, making the gap bigger each winter.

Surroundings and access

Mature trees around many Perth streets drop leaves and moss into gutters and valleys. Blocked valleys hold water back and force it under the slates at the sides, a common cause of leaks that look like they're coming from somewhere else.

Building age

A large share of Perth's housing is well over a century old. On roofs this age the nails holding slates corrode and slates begin to slip across the whole roof, which is why repairs can seem to multiply. Craig will tell you honestly whether repairs or reslating make more sense.

Local guide

A Homeowner's Guide to Roofing in Perth

Spotting roof problems early in Perth

Most roof problems in Perth start small. A single slipped slate, a crack in the lead around a chimney or a blister on a flat roof lets in a little water at first, often into the loft or behind a ceiling where you won't see it. Signs worth looking out for include damp patches or brown stains on upstairs ceilings, a musty smell in the loft, daylight through the roof boards, slates lying in the garden or gutter, moss building up in valleys, and water overflowing from gutters during heavy rain. If you notice any of these, it's worth getting the roof looked at before the next spell of wet or freezing weather makes the problem bigger and the repair more expensive.

Repair or replace? Honest advice for Perth homes

One of the most common questions from Perth homeowners is whether a roof can be repaired or needs replacing. The answer depends on what Craig finds. If the slates, felt and timbers are generally sound and the problem is limited to one area, a targeted repair is usually the sensible choice. If slates are slipping all over the roof, the felt underneath has perished, or a flat roof has been patched repeatedly and keeps failing, a replacement often works out better value over time. Craig takes photos so you can see exactly what he's seeing, explains the options in plain English, and will never push a full replacement when a repair will do the job properly.

Flat roofs, slate and lead: getting the details right

Many leaks in and around Perth come down to details rather than the main roof surface. On flat roofs, it's the edges, upstands and joins where the roof meets a wall. On slate roofs, it's the valleys, ridges and the lead around chimneys, dormers and skylights. Ericht Roofing is an approved installer of Armourplan, Fatra and Sarnafil single-ply membrane systems and holds Level 1 lead welding, so these details are handled with the right materials and methods. Getting them right first time is what lets the work carry guarantees of up to 15 years.
