How it works
Clear details help roofers quote accurately and plan the right approach first time for your property.

- Add photos, measurements, roof height and access notes.
- Review quotes for materials, timing, disposal, making good and tidy up.
- Agree the scope and book the work in writing.
What roofers can help with
Roofers can repair damage, replace worn coverings and advise on maintenance. This includes leak repairs, slipped tiles, damaged flashing, ridge work and flat roof patching. For full replacements, a roofer can strip the existing roof, renew the underlay and fit new materials suited to the property. Clear quotes rely on good information: roof type, pitch, size, storey height and access restrictions. Let the Roofer know if scaffolding is likely and whether there are roof windows, solar panels or chimneys. If you want to keep the same finish or change materials, say so in the brief. Include photos and describe when the issue started so the scope is understood. If you have measurements or a plan, include them. Share any preferred dates or access windows for the work.

FAQs
Do you replace ridge tiles for a bigger project?
Yes. Loose or damaged ridge tiles are a common repair. a roofer can re-bed or replace them and check the surrounding mortar or fixings. It helps to note any existing issues, recent work, and the areas involved.
Is moss removal part of roofing work?
Some roofers offer cleaning or recommend it if moss is causing drainage issues. They may advise on safe methods to avoid damaging tiles or slates. Ask what is included, how long the work may take, and what happens if extra issues appear.
Can a flat roof be patched?
Minor damage can sometimes be patched, but the approach depends on the material and condition. a roofer can assess whether a local repair is suitable or if a wider replacement is needed. Photos and measurements can help the Roofer give clearer guidance.
Will you match existing tiles or slates?
Roofers usually try to match existing materials where possible, but availability varies. If matching is difficult, the Roofer should explain options and any visual differences. If relevant, confirm how services will be isolated and when they will be restored.
Do roofers handle gutters and edges for a bigger project?
Some do, especially if guttering or edge details affect the roof line. Ask what is included in the scope and whether any repairs are recommended. Share the age of the property, access, and what you want to change so the Roofer can plan the right approach.
How disruptive is a roof replacement?
Most work is external, but there can be noise and some disruption around access and scaffolding. Your Roofer should explain the schedule and any short periods of limited access. It helps to note any existing issues, recent work, and the areas involved.
