About Hersham

What a roofer does
A roofer inspects the roof, finds the cause of a leak and repairs or replaces the covering. They should explain what they found and show photos.
Jobs people often ask roofers to do:
- Fixing a leaking flat roof
- Replacing lead flashing
- Repairing chimney flashings
- Clearing and repairing gutters
- Fitting fascias and soffits
Before you book a roofer
- If bats roost in a roof they are legally protected. A roofer should stop work and get advice if they find any.
- Ask what guarantee comes with a new roof and who stands behind it.
- Ask for photos before and after, especially of areas you cannot see from the ground.
- Check that gutters and downpipes are included, because a roof is only as good as where the water goes.
