General roof repairs and leak fixing across Perthshire and Angus.
Service overview
What Is General Roof Repairs?
General roof repairs cover the everyday problems that affect roofs: slipped or broken slates, leaks, damaged flashings and wear that needs attention before it gets worse.
Who it's for
It's for any homeowner in Perthshire or Angus with a roof problem, big or small, who wants it fixed by someone who turns up when they say they will.
When you need it
Get a repair as soon as you notice a slipped slate, a leak, staining or storm damage. Small problems fixed early stay small.
Why professional help matters
Audrey M. described the service as 'straightforward and pleasant to deal with and job done at specified time at reasonable price'. A good repair fixes the cause and is explained clearly.
The cost of waiting
What Happens If It's Ignored
Roof problems grow. A slipped slate becomes a leak, a leak becomes damaged timber and plaster.
Risks and damage
- Water damage inside the home.
- Further slates loosened by wind.
- Higher repair costs the longer the problem is left.
- Risk from falling slates.
Common mistakes
- Leaving a small problem until it becomes a big one.
- Going up the roof yourself.
- Using sealant as a permanent fix.
- Picking a roofer who can't explain what they've done.

In detail
General Roof Repairs: The Detail
Slipped and broken slates
The most common repair. Slates are replaced and fixed properly.
Leak fixing
Leaks are traced to the source and repaired, not just covered up.
Flashings and lead
Damaged flashings and lead details are repaired or renewed.
Repairs on flat roofs
Flat roof defects are repaired, and if the roof is beyond repair Craig will say so honestly.
Areas covered
Perth, Blairgowrie, Dundee, Pitlochry, Alyth, Coupar Angus, Aberfeldy and across Perthshire and Angus.
The most common roof repairs
Most repairs involve slipped or broken slates, leaks around chimneys and valleys, damaged flashings, and wear along ridges and edges. Flat roofs have their own common problems, such as splits in the covering and failed edges. Craig carries out repairs on both pitched and flat roofs.
Why small repairs matter
A single slipped slate might seem minor, but it lets water onto the roof below and can let wind lift the slates next to it. Fixing it quickly keeps the cost low and protects the rest of the roof. Leaving it through a winter often turns one slate into a dozen.
Honest advice on repair versus replacement
Sometimes a repair is all a roof needs; sometimes a roof has reached the point where repairs no longer make sense. Craig will tell you honestly which applies, and show you photos so you can see for yourself. Customers describe him as honest and genuine.
Turning up as arranged
One of the most common frustrations with trades is waiting for someone who doesn't show. Reviews for Ericht Roofing mention punctuality: John H. said Craig 'arrived at my house as arranged' and Audrey M. said the job was 'done at specified time'.
After the repair
Once the repair is done, Craig checks the surrounding roof so you know whether anything else needs attention. If it does, you'll get a clear quote for it, no pressure to go ahead.
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.
