A typical semi-detached house takes about 2 hours on the day. That is guide time spent working, not how soon we can visit — appointment availability varies.

Most homes benefit from a clean at least once a year, usually after autumn leaf fall. Homes close to trees may need clearing twice a year.

The usual causes are a blockage (leaves, moss or silt), a blocked downpipe, a gutter that has lost its fall towards the outlet, or guttering too small for the roof area. Send us a photo and we can usually tell you which.

Often a damaged section can be replaced without replacing the whole roofline. If the timber behind is widely rotten, full replacement is usually more sensible. We will explain what we find.

A full uPVC roofline on a typical 3-bed semi usually takes 2–3 days, depending on scaffolding, weather and the condition of the timber underneath.
