Local coverage

## Why Bradford isfamiliar ground for us
Bradford is where the majority of our work happens, so you are not waiting on a contractor travelling in from another county for a half-day visit.

### Where we work in Bradford
We work right across Bradford: the inner terraces of Manningham, Great Horton, Little Horton and Bowling; Heaton, Shipley, Saltaire and Baildon to the north; Bingley, Cottingley and Wilsden out towards the Aire valley; Idle, Thackley and Eccleshill to the east; and Queensbury, Clayton and Wibsey up on the higher ground where the weather arrives first.

### Getting to Bradford
Calls are answered by Jamie 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Because Bradford is our main working area, urgent leaks are usually looked at the same day or the next, and free assessments for planned work are typically booked within days.

### Property types in Bradford
Bradford's housing stock is heavily stone: Victorian back-to-backs and through terraces with stone slate or Welsh slate, gritstone semis and villas in Heaton and Shipley, interwar and post-war estates with concrete interlocking tiles, mill conversions and apartment blocks with large flat roof areas, and modern estate housing on the city fringe.

### What Bradford calls us for
The regular Bradford calls are slipping slates from nail sickness, heavy stone slate roofs that have overloaded tired battens, chimney stacks needing repointing and new lead, valley failures on through terraces, roofline renewal on tall three-storey properties, EPDM flat roofing on dormers and rear extensions, Velux roof windows in loft rooms, and full re-roofs where repair has stopped making financial sense.

Why Roofserve

## Why people in Bradforduse us twice

### Bradford is our main working area
This is where most of our jobs are, so we know the streets, the access constraints and how the local stock fails. Return visits are straightforward rather than a favour.

### Stone slate handled properly
Stone slate is heavy, graded in diminishing courses and unforgiving of shortcuts. We assess whether the existing stone can be re-laid on new battens and membrane or whether it needs supplementing, and we say so in writing.

### One accountable contact
Jamie assesses the roof, writes the quotation and is on site while the work is done, so there is no gap between what you were told and what happens on the scaffold.

### Guarantees, insurance and staged payment
15-year workmanship guarantee on full re-roofs, 20-year manufacturer guarantee on Resitrix EPDM, £2m public liability and £10m employers' liability insurance, and the balance taken only once you are happy with the job.

Local roof problems

## What actually goes wrongon Bradford roofs

### Nail sickness on Victorian slate and stone
Bradford's older terraces are largely slate and stone slate on original ferrous nails. The covering can be sound while the fixings corrode away, so pieces slide out one at a time from a roof that looks fine from the pavement. Once several have gone in different places, the honest answer is usually strip, re-batten, breathable membrane and re-cover.

### Weight on tired battens
Stone slate puts a serious load on the roof structure. Where battens are undersized, split or rotted at the fixings, the roof starts to dip and ripple long before anything actually falls. Battens and timbers are inspected while the covering is off, and anything that needs replacing is reported before it is done.

### Pennine-edge exposure
The ground rises sharply west and south of the city, and properties at Queensbury, Clayton and Thornton take driving rain and wind that lower-lying streets never see. Mortar pointing erodes faster, verges take more uplift, and any detail relying on mortar rather than lead has a much shorter life.

### Chimney stacks and mill-era detailing
Tall stacks, shared party-wall stacks and complex parapet and valley detailing are common across the terraces and mill conversions. Most of the persistent damp we are called to in Bradford traces back to a stack or an abutment rather than the main roof covering.

Our process

## The same five steps,every job in Bradford

- 01
### Call or message Jamie
The phone is answered by Jamie, the owner, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You describe what you can see: a stain on a ceiling, tiles in the garden, a gutter overflowing, and we work out whether it needs a same-week look or an emergency make-safe.

- 02
### Free on-site assessment
We come out and get eyes on the actual roof rather than quoting from a photo. Assessments for potential work are free. If you want a full written condition report instead, for a purchase, a dispute or a damp investigation, that is our paid roof survey, priced on enquiry.

- 03
### A detailed written quote
You get a detailed quote setting out the materials, the scope and the price. No 'from' pricing, no day-rate creep, no verbal estimate that changes once the scaffold is up. If we find something hidden once the roof is stripped, you are told before any extra work happens.

- 04
### The work, done by the people who quoted it
Jamie is on site. Access is set up properly, the site is kept tidy, and we work to the scope you signed off. Larger jobs are paid in three stages: a deposit for materials, a stage payment during the work, and the balance at the end.

- 05
### Sign-off and guarantee
We walk the finished work with you and the final payment is only taken once you are happy. Full re-roofs carry a 15-year workmanship guarantee; Resitrix EPDM flat roofs carry a 20-year manufacturer guarantee.
