Roof Repair in Orihuela Costa — Pitched Tiled Roofs on the Golf Urbanisations
We repair pitched tiled roofs across Orihuela Costa: the sloping sections of townhouses, quads and villas in Villamartín, Cabo Roig, La Zenia, Playa Flamenca and Punta Prima. Cracked ridge mortar, slipped interlocking tiles, valleys, verges and gutters that were undersized from new. Fixed written price, photographic evidence at each stage and a two-year written guarantee. Flat solariums are covered on our waterproofing page.

Whole streets in Orihuela Costa went up as single promotions, built to one repeated specification: the same interlocking tile, the same mortar-bedded ridge, the same gutter section, house after house. That repetition is useful. Once we find the failure on one townhouse in Villamartín or Playa Flamenca, we know exactly which detail to check next door — usually before the neighbours have seen a stain on their bedroom ceiling.
The standard townhouse here pairs a flat solarium at the top with a pitched tiled slope over part of the upper floor, and the chronic weak point is the line where the two meet. Ridge mortar that has cracked in the sun comes a close second. We deal with the tiled slope, the flashing at that junction, the verges and the gutters; the flat surface itself is covered separately on our waterproofing page.
Most owners along this coast are British, Irish or Scandinavian, and plenty are away from November to spring. Add to that the fact the roof is normally a communal element, so it is the comunidad that votes rather than one owner. We work to that reality: a report in English with photographs taken from the roof, the source pinpointed, costs itemised, and progress evidenced so you can approve from home.
Roof Repair in Orihuela Costa: what's included
Cracked ridge and hip repair
We strip failed mortar bedding and dry-fix the ridge with vented tiles so the void breathes and the joint stops opening every summer.
Solarium-to-tile junction flashing
We rebuild the line where the flat solarium meets the pitched slope with metal flashing chased in and lapped correctly over the tile.
Undersized gutter upgrade
We replace the original developer gutters with a larger section, correct fall and enough brackets to hold a gota fría downpour.
Slipped and cracked tile work
We match model and curvature, re-set wind-moved tiles and clip verge and ridge units so the levante cannot lift them again.
Valleys, verges and eaves
We rebuild valleys with soakers under the tile and check eaves and gable verges, where water gets behind without showing outside.
Report for the comunidad junta
Photographs from the roof, the source identified and costs split per property, prepared so your community can vote on it at a meeting.

Roof Repair: frequently asked questions in Orihuela Costa
The roof is a communal element — can you deal with our comunidad?
Yes, and it is how most of this work happens in Orihuela Costa. We survey, then issue a report in English with photographs from the roof and the costs itemised, split per property where that helps. The president or administrator can circulate it before the junta, and we can explain the findings to owners who join by video call.
Water comes in where our solarium meets the tiled roof — is that the roof or the terrace?
Almost always the junction between the two rather than either surface on its own. In the standard Orihuela Costa townhouse the tiled slope dies against the solarium parapet, and that detail either was never properly flashed or has degraded. We repair the tiled side and the flashing; if the solarium membrane is also spent, that falls under our waterproofing service.
Do I need a licence from Orihuela town hall to repair a tiled roof?
A repair that does not alter structure or volume is normally handled as a declaración responsable, or minor works, with Orihuela town hall. Replacing structural timber or renewing a whole slope can require a fuller application. We handle the paperwork and also check your urbanisation's community rules before anything starts.
Can you carry out the work while we are back in the UK or Ireland?
Yes. Most of our Orihuela Costa roof jobs are agreed remotely. You get the survey report and a fixed written price by email, approve it without travelling, and receive photographs at each stage plus the water test at the end. Keyholders or your administrator can give access, and the guarantee arrives in writing with the completion photos.
We holiday-let the property — when should the roof be checked and will lets be disrupted?
Check in autumn, before the rain arrives, and again after any strong wind episode, since a levante shifts tiles without breaking them. Most repairs here take a day or two, so we schedule between bookings or during the quiet winter weeks. A leak discovered by a tenant costs you far more than the inspection.
