Chasing a Leak? Find It Before It Finds Your Ceiling

A brown stain on the ceiling or a damp patch that keeps coming back is frustrating precisely because the source is rarely where the damage shows. Jason traces leaks across Littlehampton and West Sussex back to the true cause — roof coverings, flashings, gutters, pipework or bathrooms — then fixes it properly rather than patching the symptom.

Roof Leaks, Plumbing Leaks and Damp

As a GRP fibreglass roofing specialist, Jason is particularly strong on roof-related leaks: failed flashings, cracked render, porous felt and ponding flat roofs. Inside leaks from plumbing and bathrooms are traced too, along with damp investigations where condensation, penetrating water or bridged gutters are the suspects.

Common Questions

Leak Investigation FAQs

The stain is on my ceiling — does that mean the roof is leaking directly above?

Not always. Water travels along joists and can appear metres from the entry point. Proper investigation checks the whole path above the stain before anything is opened up.

Can you come out urgently?

Yes — emergency callouts are available 24 hours for active leaks. The priority is stopping water ingress quickly, followed by a quote for the permanent fix.

Will you have to pull my ceiling down?

Only if necessary, and only after less destructive checks are exhausted. Many roof-side leaks can be confirmed from outside with no interior damage at all.

How do I get a leak investigated?

Call or WhatsApp with photos of the damp patch or leak if safe to do so. You'll get an honest view of likely causes and the cost of tracing and fixing them.
