Roofer in Ilkley
Roof problems in Ilkley rarely announce themselves. They show up as a mark on a ceiling months after the tile actually moved. By the time it is visible inside, the felt underneath has usually been wet for a while.
Everything is sheeted at the end of the day. Your house does not get left open overnight because the weather turned or the job overran.

What I usually find in Ilkley
Out through Wharfedale you get more stone slate and more exposure. Roofs here take a lot more weather than the ones in the city, and the older stone slate roofs need handling differently to concrete tile. Conservation area rules apply on plenty of streets, so a like-for-like tile match matters.

How do I know if I need a repair or a whole new roof?
Age, spread and the state of the battens underneath. One slipped tile is a repair. Widespread slippage on a roof past fifty years old usually is not. I will tell you honestly which one you are looking at.
Do you do small jobs?
Yes, and they are most of what I do. A single tile, a bit of guttering, a chimney flaunching. The jobs bigger firms will not turn out for.
How much does a roof repair cost in Leeds?
Most small repairs, a slipped tile or a bit of flashing, land between £150 and £400. A bigger job needs a look first. I quote in writing before anything starts, and the quote is the price.
Do you charge for quotes?
No. I come out, look at the roof properly, and tell you what it needs. If it does not need doing, I will say so.
How quickly can you come out?
For a leak, usually the same day or the next morning. I will get it watertight first and sort the proper repair once the weather allows.
