FAQs
Re-Roofing
How do I know if my roof needs replacing?
Common signs include leaks, missing tiles, sagging areas, or visible daylight through your loft. If your roof is 20–25 years old, it may also be time for a replacement.
How long does a re-roofing job take?
Most re-roofing projects take between 3–7 days depending on the size, materials, and weather conditions.
What materials can I choose for my new roof?
We offer slate, tile, metal and other options, and can help you choose based on your home, budget and long-term needs.
Roof Repairs
Do you offer emergency roof repairs in Nottingham?
Yes, we provide fast-response emergency roof repairs across Nottingham and the East Midlands.
Can a roof be repaired instead of replaced?
In many cases, yes. If the damage is isolated, like missing tiles, small leaks, or flashing issues, we can usually carry out efficient repairs without a full replacement.
Flat Roofs
What is the best material for a flat roof?
We use felt, GRP (fibreglass), and EPDM rubber depending on your needs. GRP is excellent for long-term durability, while felt offers a more cost-effective option.
How long does a flat roof last?
A well-installed flat roof can last 20–30 years or more with proper maintenance.
Ventilation & Air Brick
Why is roof ventilation important?
Proper ventilation prevents condensation, mould growth, and timber decay. It also helps regulate temperature in your loft or attic.
What are air bricks and do I need them?
Air bricks allow fresh air to circulate in enclosed spaces. We recommend them if your roof space is poorly ventilated.
Velux & Roof Windows
Can you install Velux windows in an existing roof?
Yes, we install Velux windows into most pitched roofs without needing planning permission in most cases.
Are Velux windows energy efficient?
Absolutely. Velux windows are double-glazed and designed to keep your home warm in winter and cool in summer.
Leadwork & Flashing
What is lead flashing and why is it important?
Lead flashing is used to seal roof joints and prevent water ingress, especially around chimneys, valleys, and walls
Can leadwork be repaired or does it need replacing?
Small cracks can often be repaired, but older or heavily worn leadwork is best replaced to ensure water tightness.
Fascias, Soffits & Guttering
What are fascias and soffits for?
They protect the roof edge and support the guttering while helping ventilate the roof space.
How often should I replace or clean my guttering?
We recommend checking and cleaning your guttering at least twice a year, and replacing it every 20–25 years or when damaged.
Dry Ridge Systems
What is a dry ridge system?
A dry ridge system uses mechanical fixing instead of mortar to secure ridge tiles, making it more durable.
Can you retrofit a dry ridge to an existing roof?
Yes, we can upgrade most traditional ridge systems to dry ridge solutions for improved performance and longevity.
Chimney Repairs
What is chimney repointing?
Repointing replaces the mortar between chimney bricks, preventing water ingress and structural damage.
What is a chimney cowl?
A chimney cowl helps prevent downdrafts, improves airflow, and keeps out birds and debris.
Roof & Gutter Cleaning
Is moss bad for my roof?
Yes. Moss retains moisture and can lead to cracked tiles, blocked gutters, and water damage over time.
How often should my gutters be cleaned?
At least twice a year – typically in spring and autumn, or more often if you have overhanging trees.
Roofing Costs
How much does a new roof cost in Nottingham?
The cost of a new roof varies depending on the size of the property, the materials used (e.g. slate, tile, or metal), and access requirements. On average, re-roofing a 3-bed semi-detached home in Nottingham can range from £5,000 to £10,000. We offer free, no-obligation quotes.
What does flat roof replacement cost?
A flat roof replacement typically costs between £1,000 and £3,000, depending on the material (felt, GRP, EPDM) and surface area. We’ll advise on the most cost-effective, long-lasting solution for your needs.
Is roof repair cheaper than replacement?
Yes, roof repairs are usually far more affordable than full replacements. Minor repairs like fixing a leak or replacing a few tiles often cost £150–£500, while larger repair jobs can be £500–£1,500.
Do you offer free quotes for roofing work?
Yes, we provide free, no-obligation quotes for all roofing services. We’ll assess the condition of your roof and give a detailed breakdown of costs, so you can make an informed decision.
Can I get a fixed price for my roof project?
In most cases, yes. Once we’ve carried out an inspection, we’ll provide a fixed-price quote that includes labour, materials, and any necessary scaffolding or waste disposal.
Are there any hidden fees in your roofing quotes?
Absolutely not. We believe in transparent pricing with no hidden extras. All costs are clearly explained up front so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
