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.
