Roofer in Leeds city centre
If you are looking for roofers in Leeds city centre, 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 would rather do a repair well than sell you a replacement you did not need. It is a smaller invoice and it is why the phone keeps ringing in Leeds city centre.

Flat roofs and parapets in Leeds city centre
The city centre is not really house roofing at all. It is flat roof, parapet and gutter work on converted mills, apartment blocks and commercial buildings, much of it in felt, single-ply or asphalt, and almost all of it reached through a building rather than off a drive.
Failures here are joints, outlets and upstands rather than tiles: a blocked outlet on a flat roof puts water somewhere it cannot drain, and the first anybody knows is a ceiling two floors down. Access and permission usually take longer to arrange than the repair takes to do.

Water is coming through two floors down. Is that the roof?
It can be, and on a flat roof it usually means a blocked outlet or a failed joint at a parapet rather than a hole. Water sits where it cannot drain and then travels. Finding it means looking at the roof and the route, not just the ceiling it appeared on.
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.
