Sagging Roof in Morpeth
A visibly sagging roof is structural, not cosmetic. It means rafters, purlins or the ridge beam have moved — usually from water damage, undersized timbers, or a previous heavy-tile conversion that the structure couldn't carry. We survey, photograph, and refer to a structural engineer if needed. We're regularly on roofs close to the A1, through Stobhill and Loansdean.
