FAQs
What roofing services do you provide in Bristol?
We offer a full spectrum of services, including roof inspections, leak detection, flat and pitched roof installations, re-roofing, slate and tile replacement, chimney lead-work, guttering, fascia and soffit repairs, and 24/7 emergency call-outs. Our team is trained to work on both residential and commercial properties throughout all BS postcodes.
Are you licensed and fully insured for roofing work in Bristol?
Yes. We hold full public liability insurance up to £5 million, are accredited by the NFRC (National Federation of Roofing Contractors), and comply with the latest Health & Safety Executive (HSE) guidelines. All operatives carry CSCS cards and are trained in working at height, asbestos awareness, and use of access equipment.
How long does a typical roof replacement take?
For an average three-bed semi-detached property in Bristol, a full roof replacement usually takes 3–5 working days, depending on access, weather conditions, and material choice. Larger or more complex roofs, such as those on Victorian terraces or commercial buildings, can take 1–2 weeks. We provide a detailed timeline and keep neighbours informed to minimise disruption.
Which roofing materials are best suited to Bristol’s climate?
Bristol’s mix of coastal winds, rain, and temperature fluctuations makes durable, weather-resistant materials essential. Welsh slate and clay tiles are popular for their longevity and traditional appearance. For flat roofs, high-performance torch-on felt and EPDM rubber membranes perform well against heavy rainfall. We also install modern composite tiles and standing-seam metal roofs for enhanced durability and energy efficiency.
Do you offer emergency roof repairs and how quickly can you respond?
Yes. We operate a 24/7 emergency repair service across Bristol and the surrounding areas. In most cases we can attend within 2 hours of your call, secure the roof to prevent further damage, and provide a full written quotation for permanent repairs. All emergency visits include photographic evidence for insurance claims.
What warranties and guarantees do you provide?
All new roof installations come with a 20-year workmanship guarantee, backed by an insurance-backed warranty for your peace of mind. Manufacturer warranties on materials range from 10 to 40 years, depending on the product. For repairs, we offer guarantees between 1 and 10 years, subject to the scope of work and the condition of the existing roof.
