What is emergency roofing and what does it involve?

Questions we're asked most.
Do you charge a callout fee?
+
[CLIENT TO CONFIRM: Emergency callout charging policy].
Are you available at weekends and evenings?
+
Yes. Our emergency roofing service operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and bank holidays.
Should I climb up to check the roof myself?
+
No. Roof access is dangerous in wet or windy conditions. Stay inside, contain any water where safe, and call us.
Do you provide a free written quote?
+
Yes. We survey the roof, then send an itemised written quote you can compare line-by-line. No verbal-only estimates and no pressure to commit.
Are you fully insured?
+
Yes — public liability and employers' liability cover. Proof of insurance is available on request before you engage us.
Do you supply photo evidence of completed work?
+
Every job closes with a before/during/after photo pack. On drone-surveyed jobs we include aerial imagery as well.
How do you handle waste and site tidiness?
+
Skip or grab-lorry provision is included in the quote. Site is swept and left as we'd want our own home left — no nails on the drive, no debris in the flowerbeds.
Which areas of Cumbria do you cover?
+
Carlisle, wider Cumbria, the Lake District and selected areas of the Scottish Borders. If you're near the boundary, call — we'll tell you honestly.
