Roofer in Richmond Hill
Work in Richmond Hill tends to come in two shapes: something urgent after weather, or something that has been quietly getting worse for a couple of years. Both are easier and cheaper the sooner somebody looks.
Access matters more than people expect. Before I price anything in Richmond Hill I want to see what is involved in getting to the roof safely, because that is usually the difference between two quotes that look wildly apart.

What I usually find in Richmond Hill
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.

Are you insured?
Yes, fully insured for public liability. Ask to see the certificate and I will send it over before I start.
Will I be dealing with you or a salesman?
Me. I quote the job, I do the job, and I am the one you ring afterwards. No call centre and no lads you have never met on your roof.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. Guarantee length depends on the job and the materials, and it is written on the quote before you agree to anything.
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.
