GENERAL ROOFING FAQS
Q. Do you offer free quotes?
A. Yes. Every customer receives a free, written quote with no obligation to proceed. We’ll also explain the options clearly so you can make an informed decision.
Q. What areas do you cover?
A. We cover all of Ayrshire, including Ayr, Kilmarnock, Irvine, Prestwick, Troon, Kilwinning, and surrounding towns within a 30-mile radius of our base in North Ayrshire.
Q. How do I know if my roof needs repairing or replacing?
A. If you notice leaks, water stains, missing tiles, or sagging areas, you likely need repair work. However, if the damage is widespread, or your roof is over 20 years old, a full replacement might be more cost-effective. We’re happy to inspect your roof and advise with no obligation.
Emergency Roofing Questions
Q. What should I do while waiting for an emergency roofer?
A. If safe to do so, try to contain any internal water using buckets or towels. Avoid going on the roof yourself. Contact us directly on 01292 431333 and we’ll guide you through next steps.
Q. Do you charge extra for emergency call-outs?
A. No, we don’t inflate prices for emergencies. All our quotes are transparent, and we don’t charge VAT.
Q. Can you attend roofing emergencies quickly?
A. Yes. We aim to attend within 24 hours for emergency roofing jobs. Whether your roof has been damaged by storms or is leaking heavily, we’ll prioritise your safety and prevent further damage.
Roof Repair & Maintenance FAQs
Q. Can you fix storm damage?
A. Absolutely. We regularly attend homes affected by strong winds and rain. We can secure the roof quickly and follow up with a full repair or replacement quote.
Q. How long do roof repairs usually take?
A. Most minor repairs are completed in a day. Larger jobs may take longer depending on access, weather, and extent of the issue. We’ll provide a timeframe with your quote.
Q. What types of roofs do you repair?
A. We repair slate roofs, tiled roofs, flat roofs, and EPDM rubber systems. From cracked slates to pooling water on flat roofs, we’ve handled it all.
Flat Roofing FAQs
Q. How long does a flat roof last?
A. An EPDM or GRP flat roof can last over 25 years with proper installation. Felt roofs typically last 10–15 years. We’ll help you choose the right material for your property.
Q. What materials do you use for flat roofs?
A. We use EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass, and traditional felt—depending on your property and budget. EPDM is long-lasting and low-maintenance, making it a popular choice.
Roofline & Guttering FAQs
Q. Can you install new fascias and soffits?
A. Yes. We install high-quality fascias and soffits to improve your property’s appearance and drainage. We ensure a clean, secure finish that integrates with your existing roofing.
Q. What signs suggest my roofline needs work?
A. Look for peeling paint, sagging gutters, water pooling at the base of your property, or damp patches under the eaves. These all indicate roofline problems.
Q. Do you repair or replace guttering
A. Yes. We offer full gutter replacements, along with fascia and soffit repairs. Roofline work helps protect your home from damp and structural issues.
Pricing & Payment FAQs
Q. How much does a new roof cost?
A. Costs vary depending on the size of the roof, access, and materials. A full quote will be provided after inspection. Our pricing is typically up to 50% lower than larger roofing firms.
Q. Do I have to pay upfront?
A. No. We never ask for upfront payment. You only pay when the job is complete and you’re happy with the work.
Q. Do you charge VAT?
A. No. As a small local business, we do not charge VAT on any of our services, which helps keep costs down for our customers.
