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.
