Each service page explains the work, what decides the price and how we survey the roof, with its own guides and short answers.
These posts answer the questions that come up before anyone climbs a ladder: how long a covering lasts, what a repair involves, which jobs need Building Regulations approval and what a sensible survey should include. Figures come from named, dated sources, and where two sources disagree you will see both.
