Quick Quote OnlineMoss was sliding off our tenement roof into the gutters every winter. They cleared the lot, took the gutters back to clean metal and treated the slates. First dry close in years.
Lead flashing round the chimney on our slate roof had lifted and the bedroom ceiling was marking. Surveyed it, priced it in writing, redressed the lead properly. No drama, no upsell.
Flat roof on the kitchen extension started dripping during a downpour. They came out in the rain, patched it and stopped the water, then came back and put EPDM over the whole thing.
New guttering and fascias the full length of the house. Old timber was rotten behind the boards, which they showed me before touching it. Tidy job and the price did not move.
Chimney stack was shedding mortar onto the pavement. Repointed, new flaunching, cowls on both pots, lead tray at the base. Explained every step and left the close spotless.
Two slipped slates and a cracked ridge after the January storms. Fixed the same week, matched the slate, and the written quote came before anyone went up a ladder.
What is here
One guide per question.Oldest first, newest last.
Each guide takes one question a Glasgow homeowner actually asks, such as why the moss keeps coming back or whether a slate roof can be repaired rather than replaced, and answers it the way we would on the roof. Each guide maps onto one of the roofing services we offer, and where a guide is about a particular town it says so, because the areas we cover do not all have the same roofs.
None of it replaces the survey; a guide tells you what to expect from one, which is the first half of how we work. If a guide raises more questions than it answers, send them through the contact page and we will answer them about your roof rather than roofs in general.
