Before you call

Things people usually ask first

Worth a read while you are here — it might save you a phone call.

How quickly can you get to a roof in Milngavie?

We are in Clydebank, around twenty minutes away, so a site visit is usually within 24 to 48 hours. If you have water coming in, or something loose after a storm, say so when you call and we will do our best to get to you the same day.

My extension roof keeps leaking. Does it need replacing?

Not always, and it is worth finding out before spending. Flat roofs almost always fail at the edges rather than in the middle — the upstand where the extension meets the house, a drip trim, or an outlet that is too small. If the failure is confined to a detail we will repair the detail. If the covering itself has gone, we will tell you that instead.

Do you charge for quotes?

No. Inspections and written quotes are free and carry no obligation. We would rather look at ten roofs and work on five than push anyone into work they do not need.

Is it worth replacing guttering at the same time as the roof?

Almost always, yes. The scaffold is the expensive part of roofline work, and if it is already up for a re-roof then fascias and gutters cost a fraction of what they would as a separate job later. Coming back to it means paying for access twice.

We are north of the town and quite exposed. Does that change anything?

It does. Properties out toward Mugdock, Craigton and the Campsie fringe take considerably more wind than the town centre, and it shows in what fails — ridge tiles working loose, verges lifting, and mortar bedding cracking far sooner. On exposed roofs we specify mechanically fixed dry-fix systems rather than mortar for exactly that reason.

Will I need scaffolding?

Most re-roofs and a lot of chimney work do, both for safety and to comply with working-at-height regulations. Where it is needed it is priced into the quote — erection, hire and removal — and nothing is added afterwards.

Is your work guaranteed?

Yes. Everything we do carries a workmanship guarantee, and manufacturer material guarantees are passed on to you where they exist. We will tell you exactly what is covered before you agree to anything.

Can you help with a storm damage insurance claim?

Yes. We make the property safe first, then provide a photographic damage report and a written estimate in the format insurers expect. We are happy to speak to a loss adjuster on your behalf.
