Roofer in Armley
If you are looking for roofers in Armley, you are most likely looking at one of three things: a leak that has just appeared, a roof that has been patched too many times, or gutters that have stopped coping. I cover all three, and I turn up myself.
I quote in writing before anything starts, and the number on the quote is the number on the invoice. If I get up there and find something underneath that changes it, you get a phone call, not a surprise at the end.

Slate, stacks and back additions in Armley
Most of the housing here is Victorian and Edwardian terrace, a good share of it back-to-back, and that means natural slate hung on softwood battens with tall brick stacks and a back addition running off the rear. The roof line is shared with the neighbours, so what happens on their slope tends to arrive on yours.
Stacks are the other recurring job. A tall brick stack that served four fireplaces takes weather on every face, and when the flaunching cracks and the pointing goes, water tracks down inside the stack and appears in a chimney breast that has been dry for a century.

Who pays when the leak is on the shared roof line?
Usually whoever owns the section the fault is on, but on a terrace the water rarely respects the boundary. I photograph what I find and where it is so there is something factual to show a neighbour, which settles most of these without anybody falling out.
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.
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.
