Roof Repointing — South Shields & NE33 – NE34
Repointing covers ridges, hips, verges, valleys and stack chases. Failed pointing lets water into the underlay, then into the ceiling. A proper repoint uses matched mortar — lime on heritage, sand-cement on modern — and is guaranteed for 10 years. We're regularly on roofs close to the A194(M), out around Tyne Dock, through Westoe and Whiteleas.

South Shields context
South Shields properties face genuine coastal exposure. Lead flashings around bays and chimneys take the brunt of the weather, and that's where most leaks we're called to actually start. Regular access via A194(M) and A1300. We're often out around Tyne Dock.
Housing stock we usually work on here
Solid Westoe terraces, large interwar semis around Harton, and exposed coastal properties towards Marsden.
Weather considerations
Onshore North Sea winds drive horizontal rain into bay-window junctions and front-facing slopes.
