What a roofer does
Roofers work with tile, slate, felt, rubber and fibreglass flat roofing, and lead for flashings around chimneys and walls.
Jobs people often ask roofers to do:
- Fixing a leaking flat roof
- Replacing lead flashing
- Re-roofing a house or extension
- Fitting fascias and soffits
- Fitting roof windows
Before you book a roofer
- Be careful with anyone who knocks on your door saying your roof needs replacing. Get a second opinion first.
- Ask about scaffolding. For anything beyond a small repair a safe access platform is the normal, safe choice.
- If bats roost in a roof they are legally protected. A roofer should stop work and get advice if they find any.
- Check that gutters and downpipes are included, because a roof is only as good as where the water goes.
