What a roofing job covers
Most leaks aren’t the slate or tile, they’re the lead, the bedding, or a single fixing that’s let go. We’ll find it on the first visit, tell you honestly whether you’re looking at a quick spot repair or a bigger storm-damage job, and book the work in within the week. No call-out fee, no minimum charge.
Same-week emergency response across the service area
Replacement slates and tiles matched to existing
Ridge and hip mortar repointing or dry-fix retrofit
12-month guarantee on every repair we sign off
Roof access via cherry-picker or tower scaffold for spot work
Lead flashing renewal, chimney aprons resealed
Site clean, skip removal, single final invoice

Spot fixes sit at the lower end; storm jobs needing a tower scaffold and a day’s labour run higher. Real cost depends on access, materials, time on the roof and travel. It varies by company too — bigger firms have to recover heavier overheads on every visit, while a small directly-employed local team like ours can usually be more competitive on small repair work without cutting corners.
Access. Cherry-picker hire vs ladder vs scaffold tower.
Materials. Like-for-like slate match vs generic tile.
Lead spec. Code 4 vs Code 5 for chimney and valley work.
Time on roof. A full day’s work doubles the labour line.
Distance from yard. Anything past 25 miles adds travel time.
