Roofing Projects and Case Studies
Roof Replacement in Langley Green, Crawley
This roof replacement in Langley Green, Crawley involved removing the old tiles, felt and battens and installing new breathable roofing membrane, battens and tiles. We also fitted a dry ridge system, attended to the chimney leadwork and replaced the fascias, soffits and guttering.
Our team of four completed the project over two days, with the main roof covering finished on day one. The case study includes photographs showing the work from stripping the old roof through to the finished tiling and ridge.

Real roofing work is the best way to show what we do.
Find My Roofer works on a wide range of roofing problems and projects across Sussex and Surrey, from individual roof repairs and leaking roofs through to flat roof replacement, new roofs, garage roofs and larger roofing projects.
This page will bring those projects together so you can see examples of the type of roofing work we carry out and the problems we help solve.
Real Roofing Projects Across Sussex and Surrey
Every roof is different.
The age and construction of the property, type of roof covering, previous repairs, weather exposure and extent of damage can all affect the right approach.
That is why our case studies focus on the actual problem, what we found and what work was carried out.
Where possible, each project will include:
- Location
- Type of property
- Type of roof
- Original problem
- Inspection and findings
- Work carried out
- Materials or roofing system used
- Before photographs
- During photographs
- Finished photographs
- Result
- Relevant roofing service
Roof Repair Projects
Roof repairs can range from relatively straightforward problems to more complicated leaks where the source is difficult to identify.
Our roof repair projects will include examples of problems such as:
- Missing or slipped tiles
- Broken roof tiles
- Roof leaks
- Storm damage
- Damaged ridge tiles
- Roof verge problems
- Flashing problems
- Chimney-related leaks
- Guttering and roofline problems
See our Roof Repairs service for more information.
New Roof and Roof Replacement Projects
Some roofs eventually reach the stage where repairing individual problems is no longer the most practical solution.
Our replacement roofing projects will show examples of complete or substantial roof replacement work.
These case studies will explain why replacement was considered, what work was carried out and the finished result.
See New Roofs and Roof Replacement.
Flat Roofing Projects
Flat roofs can be found on garages, extensions, porches, outbuildings and other parts of residential and commercial properties.
Our flat roofing case studies will include examples of:
- Flat roof repairs
- Leaking flat roofs
- Garage roof replacement
- Flat roof installation
- Damaged roof coverings
- Drainage problems
- Replacement of ageing flat roofs
See Flat Roofing.
Pitched Roofing Projects
Pitched roofs can develop problems with tiles, slates, ridges, verges, valleys, flashing and other components.
Our pitched roofing projects will show examples of repairs, replacement and new roofing work.
See Pitched Roofing.
Garage Roof Projects
Garage roofs are a common source of leaks, particularly where older flat roof coverings have deteriorated.
Our garage roof projects will include examples of repairs, re-roofing and replacement work.
See Garage Roofs.
Roof Cleaning and Moss Removal Projects
Where appropriate, we also deal with roofs affected by moss, algae and other organic growth.
The correct cleaning method depends on the roof covering and its condition.
Our projects will show examples of roof cleaning and moss removal work where photographs demonstrate the difference clearly.
See Roof Cleaning and Moss Removal.
Chimney and Leadwork Projects
Chimneys and leadwork can be particularly vulnerable to weathering.
Our case studies will include examples of chimney repairs, flashing, leadwork and roof junction problems.
See Chimney and Leadwork.
Roofline and Guttering Projects
Roofing work does not stop at the roof covering.
Fascias, soffits, guttering and downpipes all play important roles around the roofline.
Our projects will include examples of roofline and rainwater drainage work where appropriate.
See Fascias and Soffits and Guttering.
Emergency Roofing Projects
Storms and sudden roof damage can leave properties vulnerable to further water ingress.
Where we have photographs and suitable project information, emergency roofing case studies will show:
- What happened
- What damage was found
- How the roof was made safe
- What permanent repairs were required
- The finished result

What Happened on the Job?
A useful roofing case study should explain more than simply showing a photograph of a finished roof.
Where possible, we will explain:
THE PROBLEM
What the customer had noticed and why they contacted us.
THE INSPECTION
What we found when assessing the roof.
THE SOLUTION
Why a particular repair or roofing approach was chosen.
THE WORK
What was actually carried out.
THE RESULT
What the finished project looked like and what problem had been addressed.
This gives homeowners a better understanding of what may be involved with similar roofing problems.
Have a Roofing Problem Like One of These?
If you recognise a problem from one of our projects, your roof may require a similar type of repair.
However, every property is different.
The best way to establish what is required is to have the individual problem assessed.
If possible, send photographs when contacting us so we can get an initial understanding of the issue.
Roofing Experience You Can See
We believe photographs of genuine roofing work are more useful than generic stock images.
As this section develops, it will contain photographs from real projects carried out by Find My Roofer across Sussex and Surrey.
The aim is to show the work honestly, including the condition we found, the work being carried out and the finished result.
