Provide the roof type, pitch and size, the number of storeys and any access issues so quotes are accurate. Mention interior signs such as damp or staining and share photos of the affected area where possible. If you need matching materials or a change of finish, include that detail.

How often should a roof be inspected?
There is no fixed rule, but inspections after storms or visible issues can help catch problems early. a roofer can advise on whether routine checks are sensible for your roof type. Share the age of the property, access, and what you want to change so the Roofer can plan the right approach.
Can you repair storm damage quickly?
