Roofing & property care in Barmby Moor
Barmby Moor grew up as a stopping point on the old road between York and Hull, and the village was once a small market town with its own coaching inn. Today it is a busy commuter village a mile and a half from Pocklington, with older brick houses along the main street and newer homes spread out behind them.
That mix means plenty of flat roofs: kitchen and family-room extensions, single and double garages, porches and the odd dormer added during a loft conversion. Advanced Property Care repairs and replaces flat roofs for homeowners and landlords in Barmby Moor. We start by inspecting the roof properly, find out where water is really getting in, and give you a clear written quote with photos so you can see exactly what we found before any work is agreed.

Roofs in Barmby Moor: what we look out for
Housing in Barmby Moor runs from Grade II* listed buildings such as the Manor House and St Catherine's Church, through Victorian and early twentieth-century brick cottages, to the estates built in the later twentieth century and the newer homes added since. Many of the post-war houses have been extended, and a large share of those extensions were finished with mineral felt or a basic built-up roof that was never designed to last more than a couple of decades.
The village sits on flat, open land at the edge of the Vale of York, so roofs take the full force of westerly wind and rain with little shelter. On a flat roof that shows up as lifted felt at the edges, splits along upstands where the roof meets a house wall, and ponding where the deck has sagged between joists. Blocked outlets and undersized gutters on garages are common too, and once water sits on a roof for long enough it finds every weak seam.

Flat Roofing for Barmby Moor homes
A flat roof that leaks is not always a roof that needs replacing. On Barmby Moor extensions we often find the problem is a failed upstand, cracked flashing or a blocked outlet rather than the main covering, and a targeted repair is the sensible answer. Where the deck is soft, the felt is blistered across the whole surface, or the roof has been patched several times already, replacement is usually better value.
New flat roofs are laid with a modern seamless system over a sound deck, with properly dressed edges, upstands and trims. Where water has been ponding we can improve the fall with firrings or a tapered layer and make sure outlets and gutters can carry the water away. It suits garages, kitchen extensions, dormers and bay roofs alike.

Questions from Barmby Moor homeowners
Anything else you would like to know? Call us on 07338 612197 and we will happily talk it through.
My garage roof in Barmby Moor is felt and about 25 years old. Should I repair or replace it?
It depends on the deck underneath and how widespread the damage is. If the felt is cracked or blistered in one area and the boards are firm, a repair can buy several more years. If the boards flex underfoot, the felt has crazed all over, or it has been patched repeatedly, a new seamless roof is normally the better long-term choice. We will show you photos and explain both options.
Water sits on my extension roof after rain. Is that a problem?
Small puddles that dry within a day or two are not unusual, but standing water that lingers puts constant strain on the covering and seams and speeds up wear. It usually means the fall is too shallow or the deck has sagged. When replacing a roof we can build in a better fall and check the outlet or gutter is big enough.
Can you fix the join where my flat roof meets the house wall?
Yes. Leaks at the junction between an extension roof and the main wall are some of the most common we see. The fix may involve renewing the upstand, re-cutting a chase in the brickwork and fitting new lead or a proper flashing so water is shed over the top of the flat roof rather than behind it.
