About Roofer

Understanding the quote structure

A proper quote breaks down labour, materials, scaffolding, waste removal and VAT. Watch for vague line items like roof repair lump sums. Ask whether timber replacement, new flashing and ridge mortar are included. A quotation valid for 30 days lets you compare offers fairly between contractors.

Annual checks that extend roof life

Once a year, walk the perimeter with binoculars and look for lifted shingles, rusted flashing, and granules in the gutters. After major storms, check the attic for damp insulation or daylight through the deck. Small repairs caught early cost a fraction of what a full replacement demands after years of neglect.

Site protection and clean-up standards

Roofing is messy and dangerous. Confirm the crew will protect driveways, gardens, and walls with tarps and plywood. A magnetic sweep for nails should happen every working day, not only at the end. Ask where the dumpster will sit, who pulls the permit, and how the property is left at close of each day.

Reading a roofing estimate line by line

Ask for the estimate in writing with a breakdown. Look for separate lines for tear-off of old layers, disposal, underlayment, flashing, ventilation, and labour. A bid showing only a single total makes comparison hard and hides where the money goes. Materials should be named by brand and product line.

Spotting hidden damage early

Ask the roofer to photograph any rotten battens or felt discovered after stripping. Soft spots in sarking board often appear only once tiles come off. Replace damaged felt sections at the same time, since leaving old felt guarantees future condensation issues under the new covering.

Asking about licences and insurance

Ask for public liability insurance with a minimum cover of 1 million currency units. Request proof of training or trade certification in roofing. Confirm workers are covered for working at height. A written quotation showing registration details protects you if damage or injury occurs during the job.

Payment schedule that protects you

Never pay the full amount upfront. A fair schedule is a small deposit at signing, a larger payment on delivery of materials, the bulk on completion, and a final holdback released after inspection. Avoid any contractor who pressures you to pay cash, wire money, or skip the written agreement altogether.

Ice, water, and weather barriers worth paying for

In cold climates a self-adhesive membrane along eaves and in valleys prevents leaks from ice dams and wind-driven rain. Synthetic underlayment over the rest of the deck resists tearing during installation. These are cheap upgrades that stop the most common leak paths, so ask which layers the roofer plans to install.

Warranty and after-service expectations

Reputable roofers offer a workmanship warranty of 5 to 10 years. Manufacturer warranties on tiles or membranes run 20 to 30 years. Keep the job photos and material data sheets. Schedule a roof check every 2 years and after storms above 50 km/h wind speed to catch loose ridge tiles.

How long a typical roof job takes

A straightforward re-tile on a semi-detached house takes 4 to 6 working days with a team of 3 people. Full strip and re-slate can reach 2 weeks. Flat roof replacement with single-ply membrane usually finishes in 2 to 3 days. Weather delays, especially heavy rain, often extend timelines.
