FAQs
What are the main signs that my roof in Bristol needs professional repair?
Common warning signs include slipped or missing slates/tiles, damp patches or water marks on ceilings, debris from the roof in your gutters, daylight visible in the loft, sagging roof lines and excessive moss growth. Bristol’s changeable weather can accelerate wear, so if you notice any of these indicators it’s best to book a free survey promptly – timely repairs can prevent extensive water damage to timbers, insulation and interior décor.
How quickly can your Bristol roofing team attend an emergency leak or storm-damage call-out?
We operate a 24/7 emergency response service across Bristol and the surrounding areas. In most cases we can have a qualified roofer on site within 1–2 hours, even at night or over the weekend. The first priority is to make the roof watertight with a temporary tarp or patch. A full assessment and permanent repair are then scheduled at the earliest safe weather window, usually within 24–48 hours.
What does a typical roof repair cost and will I receive a written quotation?
Minor repairs such as replacing a handful of broken tiles typically start from £120–£180, while valley, flashing or chimney repairs run between £350 and £750. Larger sectional re-roofing or structural timber work can range from £1,000 upwards. Every job begins with a free, no-obligation inspection; we provide a detailed itemised quote outlining labour, materials, scaffold and waste removal so you can make an informed decision with no hidden charges.
Do you offer guarantees on roof repair work carried out in Bristol?
Yes. All labour is backed by a minimum 12-month workmanship guarantee, and many repairs—such as new lead flashings or re-bedded ridge tiles—carry 5- to 10-year warranties. Where we install manufacturer-approved membranes, tiles or slates, their product warranties (often 20–30 years) also apply. Your guarantee certificate and maintenance advice are supplied in writing upon completion and payment.
Can you match my existing tiles or work on listed and heritage properties?
Absolutely. Our Bristol team keeps a large stock of reclaimed clay, concrete and natural slate in local styles (Double Roman, pantile, Welsh slate, etc.) to ensure a seamless match. For listed buildings we collaborate with the council’s conservation officers, use lime mortars where required and follow traditional fixing methods. All craftsmen are fully trained in heritage roofing techniques to protect the character and value of your property.
Will I need planning permission for roof repairs in Bristol?
Straight like-for-like repairs or replacement of up to 25% of the roof area generally fall under permitted development and do not need planning consent. However, if you are altering the roofline, adding skylights, changing materials on a listed building or live in a designated conservation area such as Clifton or Kingsdown, you may need approval. We provide free guidance, prepare drawings if required and can submit the application on your behalf.
