Can anyone recommend: A roofer to find and repair a leak in my roof
I have rain water getting it through my roof tiles. Very difficult to see where it is getting in. Needs an expert. Does anyone know the right person?

Hi I'm an English Builder with good roofing repairs experience. Question, can you get access to the roof space or underside of the tiles. if not then access on to the roof would be the only way to determine where the fault may be. I usually take a hose pipe up to the roof and starting at the bottom work upwards slowly until it starts to show internally. This wii give you an indication of where the problem is located although the leak might show lower down internally if it tracks down a rafter or sloping support wall.
If you can trace it internally using a hose it should be possible to do a temporary repair from the inside using roofing felt. This will also help a roofer do a quick fix and keep costs to the minimum.
Good luck with it.
