I had a builder over who said that the water is coming in from the valley which is bent and isn't wide enough. He thought it should be replaced. I also asked him to replace two guttering and fascias along that side of the roof, one 3m long and the other 1m. This builder was recommended by...

I live in Walthamstow

Anyone of you non-London roofers know a good roofer in London?

Here are some images as requested. Arrow shows the area (roughly) where the leak is, as far as I can tell What's the diagnosis :shock:

Yes. I am aware of that. It's possible that one of the roof tiles is cracked buy I cant see it. That's why I'm looking for someone who can have a look and fix the problem.

Yes. I am aware that it's hard to get a decent roofer in London. I was hoping that someone could recommend a good and reliable roofer. Can anyone help?

Could someone offer some advice to help me fix a leaky roof? I found a damp patch in the top corner of my bedroom wall on the second floor of a Victorian house. This is an external wall so I climbed up to check it out. I removed the guttering which was attached to a bit of timer. I could...
