What to discuss
On a slate roof, the laying pattern also determines how a repair fits the existing surface. We assess sizes, fastening and details around windows, edges and ornamentation. Marco specialises in slate roofs and leads the team. Agree patterns and details to retain before work starts.
Agree what is included
A clear proposal distinguishes what stays, what is removed and what is newly installed. Ask which connections and finishes are included and which findings remain uncertain. Record changes and their price before giving approval.
What affects the price?
Compare the same roof sections and tasks before comparing prices. The total should explain materials, preparation, removal, access equipment and finishes, with clear exclusions and a process for approving additional work.
Preparing the work
Take photographs only from a safe place. Do not climb onto the roof yourself.
Tell us about your roof
Give the address, affected roof section and when the problem occurs or what you want to improve.
Inspection and proposal
Agree the inspection and its fees, then review materials, tasks, costs and any open questions.
Agree the work and access
After approval, arrange access and scheduling. Changes and additional work are discussed before proceeding.
Completion and maintenance
Review the completed work, keep the documents and agree how to report concerns and arrange maintenance.
ROOFING IN MOTION
See the detail in motion.
The camera moves over a slate roof with roof windows, a chimney and junctions between roof slopes. The overview shows the slate courses and roof shape. This recording has a lower resolution than the detail photographs.
