What roofers can help with
Roofers deal with repairs, maintenance and replacement on pitched and flat roofs. Typical jobs include sealing leaks, replacing tiles or slates, renewing ridge lines, fixing leadwork and patching flat roof membranes. For a full re-roof, a roofer can strip the old covering, check the structure and fit new underlay and tiles. Accurate quotes depend on roof type, size, pitch and access details such as scaffolding or limited side access. Note any roof windows, chimneys or extensions. If you want to keep the same finish or change to a different material, mention it in the brief. Photos and a brief timeline of the problem help define the scope. If scaffolding or a skip will be needed, mention it. Share any preferred dates or access limits.

FAQs
Can you repair a leaking flat roof when getting quotes?
Yes, depending on the material and extent of damage. a roofer will assess whether a local patch is suitable or if a wider replacement is more reliable. Photos and measurements can help the Roofer give clearer guidance.
What should I include in a quote request?
List the roof type, size, pitch, and where the issue shows up. Add photos, access details and any signs of internal damp to help define the scope. If relevant, confirm how services will be isolated and when they will be restored.
Is it safe to inspect the roof myself?
Working at height is risky. It is safer to describe visible issues from the ground and leave close inspection to a roofer with the right equipment. Share the age of the property, access, and what you want to change so the Roofer can plan the right approach.
Can you repair roof valleys?
Yes. Valleys carry water away and can leak if damaged. a roofer can repair or replace valley lining depending on the roof type. It helps to note any existing issues, recent work, and the areas involved.
Do you handle chimney repairs when getting quotes?
Many roofers handle flashing and related roof work around chimneys. Structural chimney repairs may need a specialist, but a roofer can advise once they see the issue. Ask what is included, how long the work may take, and what happens if extra issues appear.
What are common causes of missing tiles?
High winds, ageing fixings and storm damage are common causes. Replacing tiles quickly helps prevent water ingress and further damage. Photos and measurements can help the Roofer give clearer guidance. If relevant, confirm how services will be isolated and when they will be restored.
