Hi, is this fair?
I live in the NE of England and it's a 4 bed detached house.
Scaffolding both gable ends
Strip off watertabling and set aside for reuse
Supply and fit lead work to wall top
Re-bed existing water tablings
Strip off areas of damaged tiles
Supply and fix damaged areas of felt and laths
Supply and fit pantiles as required
Removed debris from site
Total quote is £3995 plus VAT
The damage doesn't look too bad from ground level, ie I can't see more than a couple of damaged tiles.
Thanks for any advise.

We are in the NE also (rural Yorkshire). Detached, two bed bungalow so possibly the same footprint roof wise as a four bed house (the main house is about 10 metres in length).
Entire roof replaced in Spring this year. Full cost for tiles, new felt, new batons, chimney re-pointing, spare tiles, scaffolding, waste removal (and they even swept the path!) was about £,5000.00.0 -
Thanks, I thought our quote seemed a bit high! We are not far from Richmond, would the company you used cover this area?Make £2018 in 2018 Challenge - Total to date £2,1080

Hi,
Maybe.
They are a great company (family business). I will PM you the details (if I put the details on here it will reveal the village where I live).0
