When unexpected damage strikes your home, knowing who to turn to can make all the difference. Autumn in the UK often brings strong winds, heavy rainfall, and colder nights—all of which can put extra pressure on your property. Whether it’s a leaking roof, a broken window, or storm damage, J&K Developments is on hand to help.
As a family-run building company based in Derbyshire, we specialise in both emergency remedial work and full insurance-approved repairs. Here are some of the most common emergency scenarios we deal with—and how we can help keep your home safe and secure.
Storm-Damaged Roofs
High winds and heavy rain can dislodge roof tiles, damage flashing, or even compromise false chimneys. Left unchecked, this can lead to leaks and serious structural problems.
What to do: If your roof is damaged, call us immediately. We can provide temporary fixes to stop leaks and then quote for full repair work, including insurance-approved estimates.
Broken Windows and Doors
Burglary attempts, flying debris, or even simple accidents can leave your windows or doors broken. Aside from the obvious security risk, this can also leave your home exposed to the elements.
How we help: Our team can carry out emergency boarding to make your home secure, then arrange long-term repairs or replacements with full itemised quotes for your insurer.
Flooding or Water Ingress
Blocked gutters, faulty drainage, or heavy autumn downpours can cause water to seep into your home, damaging plaster, flooring, and electrics.
Our solution: We act fast to limit further damage, drying and securing affected areas before quoting for professional, lasting repairs.
Chimney and False Chimney Issues
Some newer-build properties include decorative chimneys that can become unstable during storms. This not only poses a danger but can also cause leaks.
How we help: We’ll assess the damage, make it safe, and provide a quote for either repair or full replacement, ensuring your property is structurally sound.
Structural Damage from High Winds
From fallen fences to damage caused by loose garden items, high winds can wreak havoc on your property.
Our approach: We carry out immediate remedial work to prevent hazards, then provide a clear, insurance-ready quotation for permanent repairs.
