“I recently had the roof lining, battens and tiles replaced by this company. My neighbour had a water leak into one of their bedrooms caused by the roof lining deteriorating. It was 60 years old, so had lasted quite well. I had a couple of dis-lodged tiles and on removal the battens were found to be in a bad state of repair. The work was carried out and completed in around a week. Apart from a couple of small snags ( which were corrected very quickly) everything seems to be ok. This has enhanced the look of the house and I am pleased with the result.”

Contact a balcony roofing repair specialist covering Thetford and get it sorted.

Can you repair a balcony roof?

Yes – in many cases, a balcony roof can be repaired rather than replaced. Repairs are often suitable if:

The structure underneath is sound
Damage is limited to the roof covering
Leaks are coming from joints, seals, or surface cracks

That said, if the roof has widespread rot, sagging, or long-term water damage, replacement may be recommended instead.

How do you stop a balcony roof from leaking?

The right fix to stop a balcony roof from leaking depends on where the water is getting in. Common leak causes include:

Failed waterproof membranes
Cracked felt, fibreglass, or rubber roofing
Poor drainage or blocked outlets
Worn seals around walls or doors

Repairs usually involve resealing joints, patching damaged areas, or replacing sections of the waterproof layer to restore protection.

Contact a balcony roofing repairer near you to find out what’s involved.

What is the best material to repair a balcony roof?

Common balcony roof repair materials include:

Felt roofing: Affordable and easy to patch
GRP (fibreglass): Long-lasting with seamless repairs
EPDM rubber: Flexible and resistant to cracking
Liquid waterproof coatings: Ideal for flat balcony roofs

Tip: Always aim to match repair materials to the existing roof if possible. This helps create a watertight finish and looks better.

Do you need permission to repair a balcony roof?

In most cases, no planning permission is needed for balcony roof repairs.

However, flats, listed buildings, or shared balconies may require approval from the freeholder or building management.

Make sure to check before work starts.
