Free Roofing Check and Reparis

The Peterborough Weekend Roof Clinic is a winter community welfare initiative organized by Upsize Property Renovation Ltd, a Peterborough-based multi-trade roofing and social housing contractor.

Designed to protect local residents from the onset of harsh winter weather, the clinic addresses the severe physical and financial strain that sudden home maintenance issues bring to vulnerable individuals.

1. Core Purpose & Mission

• Community Welfare: Unaddressed roof leaks, missing or loose tiles, damaged chimney stacks, and blocked guttering can quickly lead to severe interior dampness, significant heat loss, and thousands of pounds in emergency repair costs.
• Leadership Hands-On Commitment: Co-directors Alexandru Balan and Lari, along with their leadership team, dedicate their personal weekends free of charge to inspect roofs and perform minor repairs on-site.
• Financial Strain Relief: The initiative provides clear property assessments without financial obligation, helping prevent major structural damage before it occurs.

2. Target Group & Eligibility

The clinic is specifically tailored for local Peterborough residents who face financial hardship or physical vulnerability, including:

• Elderly homeowners and pensioners
• Low-income households
• Disabled residents
• Local families struggling with home maintenance costs

3. Scope of Services

• Free Visual Inspections: Detailed visual checks covering main roof structures, tiling, flashing, and chimney stacks.
• Complimentary Minor Fixes: Immediate, on-the-spot remedial work performed during the visit, including clearing blocked gutters, resetting loose tiles, and applying minor sealant repairs where feasible.
• Honest Assessment & Advice: Plain-English, jargon-free property condition reports and practical advice on maintaining roof integrity.
• Subsidized Major Works: Where extensive or major structural work is required, verified cases in need are offered discounted restoration rates.

4. Schedule & Application Process

• Schedule: Inspections and minor works take place on weekends throughout the autumn and winter months.
