dan2802 Â Â 51 #637 Posted October 4, 2016 Hi does anybody know which local roofing companies undertake all the work themselves using their own full time permanent tradesmen and provide a genuine insurance backed written guarantee? I'm talking about a residential re-roof - tiles, batons and under felt. Thanks Not looking for quotes - just suggestions of reputable companies that meet the above criteria. Â I've looked into insurance backed guarantees but the cost was ridiculous, something that I thought would make my prices uncompetitive. As a small business (I have one employee) I do use sub contract labour but I ensure I am on site at all times and I personally carry full responsibility.

dan2802 Â Â 51 #641 Posted October 24, 2016 I need to a quote for a fiberglass ground floor flat roof 6-8m2 Â Whats the current covering? Is upgraded insulation required? Are the falls all OK? If you can post a picture it may give us a better chance to price. Who ever you use, just make sure that its boarded with 18mm osb. I've seen some right bodge jobs.

Will definitely call if I want to proceed any further. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
berresville   10 #643 Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) Window is leaking in my bedroom, Had a look at sealant outside OK, cleaned gutters but not the problem. Worse when raining heavily and wind blowing, I think problem is above the window at roof/gutter area, can anyone help me or know anyone who can have a look. Have to get someone off internet if not, but a bit wary of cowboys. I live in the handsworth area of sheffield Edited November 21, 2016 by berresville Area of sheffield included Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Margarita Ma   10 #644 Posted November 21, 2016 Sometimes wind can blow water back under the slates or tiles which should overhang the gutters. There is a piece of kit that can prevent this but its name escapes me at this moment. It is slipped up under the roofing material and down into the gutter. Builders merchants should be able to help if you have ladders and can do it yourself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
