Roofing & property care in Goodmanham
Goodmanham is a small village about two miles north-east of Market Weighton, on the western slope of the Yorkshire Wolds and on the route of the Yorkshire Wolds Way. Its history is unusually well recorded. Bede describes a pagan temple at Goodmanham where the high priest Coifi turned against the old gods in favour of Christianity, and All Hallows' Church, dating from around 1130 and Grade I listed, stands on or near that site.
Advanced Property Care repairs and replaces flat roofs in Goodmanham. We inspect the roof, find out where and why it is failing, and give you a clear written quote with photographs. Whether it is a leaking garage, a tired kitchen extension or a dormer cheek that lets in water, you will know what the problem is and what fixing it involves.

Roofs in Goodmanham: what we look out for
Goodmanham is mostly brick cottages, farmhouses and later homes, many of which have been extended over the decades. Single-storey rear extensions, garages, porches and dormer roofs from loft conversions are where flat roofs usually appear. A lot of those were finished in traditional felt, and after twenty-five or thirty years the surface cracks, blisters and lets water through at laps and upstands.
The village sits on rising ground facing west, so roofs catch the prevailing weather coming across the Vale. Wind works at the edges of flat roofs, peeling back felt at verges and drip trims, while rain hitting the house wall runs down onto extension roofs and into poorly sealed abutments. Trees around the village drop leaves into outlets and gutters, and once those block, water pools on the roof and finds its way into the deck below, causing the soft boards and ceiling stains that usually prompt a call.

Flat Roofing for Goodmanham homes
Not every leaking flat roof needs replacing. If the deck is sound and the damage is local, such as a split at an upstand or a failed drip trim, a repair can restore it. Where the covering has failed across the roof or the deck has softened, we strip back, replace damaged boards and lay a modern seamless system.
Seamless systems have no laps or joints for water to exploit, and they are dressed up walls and around outlets to form a continuous waterproof layer. We pay particular attention to the fall, adding firrings or tapered boards where needed so the roof drains properly, and to the abutment with the main house, where a new flashing ensures water from the wall is shed over the roof rather than behind it.

Questions from Goodmanham homeowners
Anything else you would like to know? Call us on 07338 612197 and we will happily talk it through.
How long should a new flat roof last?
Lifespan depends on the system, the quality of installation and how well the roof drains, so we will explain what to expect from the option we recommend for your roof. A well-laid modern seamless roof with a proper fall and good edge details will outlast the old felt roofs found on many extensions by a considerable margin.
My dormer has a flat roof that leaks at the sides. Can you fix it?
Yes. Dormer leaks often come from the junction between the flat roof and the cheeks, or where the dormer meets the main roof. We inspect these details, then repair or replace the covering and flashings so water is properly shed. Sometimes the cheeks or fascias also need attention.
Can you improve drainage on a flat roof that always holds water?
Yes. When replacing a flat roof, we can build in a better fall using firrings or tapered insulation boards, and make sure outlets and gutters are sized and positioned to take the water away. That reduces ponding and the extra wear it causes.
