FAQs — Swindon Roof Repairs

Do you offer emergency call-outs?

 Yes. We can make-safe urgently and schedule a permanent repair as soon as practicable.

Can you repair my roof without scaffolding?

Small, localised repairs may be possible with mobile access equipment. If scaffolding is safer or more cost-effective, we’ll advise in your quote.

Will you match my existing tiles or slates?

We’ll match like-for-like where available, or source the closest equivalent if originals are discontinued.

Do you repair flat roofs or just replace them?

 We always explore a repair option first where it’s sensible and compatible with your system.

How do I know if a leak is from the roof or the guttering?

 We test methodically — checking roof coverings, flashings, valleys and gutter overflows — then share evidence so you can see the source.
