Roofer in Meanwood
Roof problems in Meanwood 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 Meanwood
A lot of Leeds housing is Victorian and Edwardian terrace and semi, which means slate or concrete tile on timber battens, stone or brick chimney stacks, and back-to-back guttering that is easy to reach and easy to neglect. The common failures are slipped slates, perished mortar on the ridge and stacks, and valleys between the back additions.

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.
