FAQs
What roofing materials do you specialise in for Bristol properties?
Our Bristol-based team is fully trained to install and repair natural slate, clay and concrete tiles, high-performance asphalt, EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass, and modern composite systems. We begin every project with a roof survey to match the best material to your building’s age, pitch, and exposure to the Bristol climate, ensuring longevity as well as aesthetic harmony with local architecture.
How do you guarantee meticulous craftsmanship and compliance with local regulations?
All work is carried out by in-house roofers who hold NVQ Level 2 or higher in Roof Slating & Tiling and are registered with the CompetentRoofer scheme. Every stage is photographed and logged, then double-checked by a senior supervisor against BS 5534 (Slating & Tiling) and Bristol City Council building-control requirements. On completion you receive a compliance certificate and a digital workmanship dossier for your records.
Will my home and garden be protected while the roof is being replaced?
Yes. We erect protective sheeting and scaffold fans to catch debris, use plywood walk boards to prevent damage to lawns and flowerbeds, and magnet-sweep daily for nails and metal off-cuts. Driveways are covered with heavy-duty mats, and we perform an end-of-day clean-down so you can safely access your property each evening.
What warranties do you offer on new roofs and repairs?
Full roof replacements come with a 20-year transferable workmanship warranty plus the manufacturer’s material guarantee (typically 30–60 years for slate, 15–25 years for membranes). Major repairs are covered for 10 years, while minor leak fixes carry a 2-year guarantee. All warranties are underwritten by an independent insurance-backed scheme for your peace of mind.
How long will my roofing project take from start to finish?
A standard semi-detached re-roof in Bristol usually takes 5–7 working days, including scaffold erection and final inspection. Complex heritage properties or chimneys requiring lead work can extend the schedule to 10–14 days. Emergency leak repairs are normally completed within 24 hours of your call, weather permitting.
Do you provide ongoing maintenance or aftercare support?
Absolutely. We offer annual or bi-annual maintenance packages that include gutter clearing, moss removal, and a full roof health check with thermal-imaging leak detection. Clients on a service plan receive priority call-outs and a 10% discount on any remedial work identified during inspections.
