Frequently Asked Questions — Roof Replacement in Edinburgh
How do I know if I need a full roof replacement rather than a repair?
Widespread slipping or crumbling slates and tiles, sagging roof lines, repeated leaks in different places, or a roof that is 40 to 60 years old with failed underlay usually point to replacement. We survey the roof and give you an honest recommendation, including whether a repair will do.
How long does a roof replacement take?
Most domestic re-roofs take between 3 and 7 working days depending on the size and complexity of the roof and the weather. We give you a clear programme before we start.
Will I need to move out while my roof is replaced?
No. You can stay in your home throughout. We protect the property while the old covering is removed and make the roof watertight at the end of every working day.
