Check why the smaller roof support has become wet
If a Wishaw garage or porch has wet roof boards, the source may be its own covering or the join with the house. We assess those connections alongside accessible support. Sarking is timber boarding beneath slate or tile; other smaller roofs can also have a timber base with different covering layers.
The proposal identifies damaged material and how the roof will be made weatherproof after repair. A new surface should not simply hide weakened support. Where the damage is limited, suitable local renewal may keep sound areas. More extensive or structural concerns need further assessment, with the inspection limits stated before deciding all the work needed.
Name the roof and show the visible damage
Send your postcode, the affected building or room and safe views of damp boards. Include both roofs if the smaller section meets the main house. We set out opening, expected repairs and replacement covering included. Any additional damage found underneath is explained before extra work is agreed, rather than assumed from the age of the roof.
- Distinguish the smaller roof base from main-roof boarding.
- Repair the water source as well as suitable damaged support.
- Explain how the covering is put back after timber repairs.

What Your Sarking & Roof Timber Repairs Quote Covers
Sarking is timber boarding beneath the roof covering, common on Scottish roofs. Limited damaged boards and other accessible non-structural timber can be replaced as part of roofing work. Significant movement, widespread decay or changes to structural supports may need a structural engineer.
- Tracing the water source before timber repair
- Opening the agreed roof area carefully
- Checking exposed roof boards, tile-fixing strips and supporting timbers
- Replacing limited damaged timber to the agreed work
- Putting back the protective layer, timber fixing strips and roof covering
Height, access, materials and the amount of damage affect the price. If more damage is found underneath, any extra work and cost will be discussed before it is agreed.

Sarking & Roof Timber Repairs Questions in Wishaw
Is garage roof decking the same as slate-roof sarking?+
Both can be timber support, but construction and covering requirements differ. The repair is specified for the actual roof.
Will a coating strengthen soft roof boards?+
No. Weakened boards need assessment and suitable repair; covering them does not restore their support.
Can a local section be renewed?+
Sometimes, where sound remaining material supports a proper connection. Extent is confirmed from accessible condition and agreed opening.
