Price of Sarnafil flat roofing per Sq Metre

barnabee

My elderly dad has made an appointment for sales reps to call on him tomorrow to give him a quote for a new flat roof on the house. (Despite all the no cold callers/sales/canvassers notices etc prominently on display).

My dad is the type of person to sign a blank cheque and roofing is not my area of expertise. I have just done a bit of research on the product but it is like trying to get a price quote for double glazing.

Does anyone know how much this material costs per square metre and whether it is as good as it is advertised to be? I will try to be there when they call - they have allocated a two hour slot so this could turn into the hard sell performance.

Any help or advice most appreciated.

Try getting a quote from an industrial roofing specialist as well such as the firms that roof supermarkets and commercial buildings .

My son is a site manager for one of these companies and going on my conversations with him it is unlikely that your local domestic roofing contractors will have the expertise or training to install a Sanafil roof .

I will ring my son and make enquiries so until I get back to you please make sure your father dose not sign up without getting several quotes .

As far as I know Sanafil have an approved list of certified contractors who have all undertaken Sanafil courses .

Thanks Shammy, that's very good advice.
I have just contacted Sarnafil and the local company in question is not registered with them for fitting.
One day I hope door to door selling will be banned in this country!
