About GetRoofingQuotes.co.uk
GetRoofingQuotes.co.uk is a free roofing quote-matching service created to help UK homeowners find suitable local roofing contractors. Instead of spending hours contacting different companies individually, you can submit one online enquiry and receive up to four quotes from roofers who cover your area.
We understand that finding a reliable roofer is not always straightforward. Roofing work can be a significant investment, and prices may vary considerably between contractors. By helping you compare several quotations, we aim to make it easier to understand your options and choose a roofing company that is suitable for your property, budget and timescale.
Our service covers a range of common roofing projects, including asbestos roof removal, flat roof replacement, conservatory roof replacement, fascia and soffit replacement, chimney removal and complete new roof replacement. We may also be able to help with related roofing work, depending on the contractors currently available in your area.
GetRoofingQuotes.co.uk is operated by Leads Do Work Ltd, a UK-based lead generation and quote-matching company. Leads Do Work Ltd manages a number of websites that connect homeowners with local tradespeople throughout the UK.
How Our Roofing Quote Service Works
Using GetRoofingQuotes.co.uk is simple. You start by completing our online enquiry form and telling us about the roofing work you need. We may ask for details such as your location, the type of property, the roofing service required and when you would like the work to begin.
Once we receive your enquiry, we check which roofing contractors on our network may be suitable for the job. Your details can then be shared with up to four independent local roofers who cover your area and carry out the type of work you have requested.
The contractors may contact you directly by telephone, email or text message. They can ask further questions, arrange a property visit where necessary and provide their own quotation for the work.
You can compare the quotes you receive, ask each roofer questions and decide whether any of the contractors are right for you. There is no obligation to accept a quote, and you remain in control of which company, if any, you appoint.
Why Compare Roofing Quotes?
Roofing prices can vary for several reasons. The final cost may depend on the size and condition of the roof, the materials being used, access to the property, scaffolding requirements, waste removal and the amount of labour involved.
For example, one contractor may recommend repairing part of a roof, while another may believe that a complete replacement would offer better long-term value. Material choices can also affect the price, particularly when comparing roofing felt, EPDM rubber, GRP fibreglass, slate, concrete tiles and clay tiles.
By requesting more than one quote, you can compare the proposed work as well as the price. This can help you identify differences between quotations and check whether important items such as scaffolding, insulation, disposal costs and guarantees have been included.
The cheapest quotation will not always provide the best value. Therefore, homeowners should also consider the contractor's experience, insurance, references, proposed materials, timescale and warranty before making a decision.
Our Main Roofing Services
GetRoofingQuotes.co.uk primarily helps homeowners request quotations for larger roofing, roofline and roof replacement projects. The main services covered by our network include the following.
Asbestos Roof Removal
Older garages, sheds, workshops, farm buildings and outbuildings may have roofing sheets that contain asbestos cement. These materials require careful handling because damaged asbestos can release hazardous fibres.
We can help you find contractors who carry out asbestos roof removal and replacement. Depending on the project, the work may include arranging an asbestos survey, removing the existing sheets, transporting and disposing of the waste correctly, and installing a suitable replacement roof covering.
Homeowners should not drill, cut, sand or break suspected asbestos roofing materials. A suitable contractor can inspect the roof and explain the safest way to proceed.
Flat Roof Replacement
Flat roofs are commonly found on extensions, garages, porches, dormers and commercial buildings. Over time, the covering may crack, split, blister or begin to allow water into the property.
A flat roof replacement can involve removing the existing material, checking the timber roof deck, replacing damaged boards and installing a new waterproof covering. Popular options include traditional felt roofing, EPDM rubber roofing, GRP fibreglass and liquid-applied roofing systems.
A roofing contractor should also check the roof's drainage, falls, flashing and insulation. Addressing these areas during the replacement can reduce the risk of standing water and future leaks.
Conservatory Roof Replacement
Many older conservatories have polycarbonate or glass roofs that become too hot during summer and difficult to keep warm during winter. Leaks, damaged panels and poor temperature control may make the room uncomfortable for much of the year.
A conservatory roof replacement may improve insulation, reduce glare and make the space more practical. Depending on the conservatory and local requirements, replacement options may include insulated panels, lightweight tiles or a new glass roofing system.
A contractor can inspect the existing conservatory frame and advise whether it can support the proposed replacement roof. Planning permission or Building Regulations approval may also apply in some circumstances.
Fascia and Soffit Replacement
Fascias and soffits protect the edges of the roof and help support the guttering system. Timber roofline boards can rot, crack or become damaged by long-term exposure to moisture.
Replacing old fascias and soffits can improve the appearance of a property while protecting the roof structure. Many homeowners choose low-maintenance uPVC boards, although timber and aluminium options may also be available.
The work can include removing the old boards, checking the condition of the rafter ends, fitting new fascias and soffits, installing ventilation and replacing or refitting the guttering.
Chimney Removal
Unused or damaged chimneys can become expensive to maintain. Loose brickwork, failing mortar, damaged flashing and leaning chimney stacks may also create a safety risk or allow water into the roof.
Chimney removal may involve taking down the stack above roof level and covering the opening with matching tiles or slates. Larger projects may also include removing part or all of the chimney breast from inside the property.
Because chimney removal can affect the structure of a building, professional advice is important. Depending on the property and the extent of the work, you may need structural calculations, Building Regulations approval, a party wall agreement or planning permission.
New Roof Replacement
A complete roof replacement may become necessary when an existing roof has reached the end of its useful life or has widespread damage. Warning signs can include repeated leaks, broken tiles, sagging roof sections, failing underlay and extensive problems with the timber structure.
Replacing a pitched roof usually involves removing the existing tiles or slates, inspecting the roof timbers, installing new breathable underlay and battens, and fitting the chosen roof covering. The contractor may also replace leadwork, valleys, ridge tiles and other roof details as part of the project.
A new roof is a major investment, so it is sensible to request detailed quotations. Each quote should clearly explain the materials, labour, scaffolding, waste removal, expected timescale and guarantees included in the price.
Free for Homeowners
GetRoofingQuotes.co.uk is free to use for homeowners, landlords, property buyers and property managers. There is no fee for submitting an enquiry, and you do not need to pay a subscription to use the service.
You are also under no obligation to appoint any of the roofing contractors who contact you. You can review the quotations, ask questions and decide whether you wish to proceed.
Roofing contractors may pay Leads Do Work Ltd for access to suitable customer enquiries. This arrangement allows us to operate the quote-matching service without charging homeowners.
Contractor Insurance and References
We aim to introduce homeowners to established local roofing businesses. Contractors on our network are expected to provide suitable business information, including details of their insurance and references where required.
However, circumstances can change, so you should always carry out your own checks before appointing a roofer. Ask the contractor to provide current evidence of public liability insurance and check that the policy covers the type of roofing work being carried out.
You should also request recent customer references or look for independently published reviews. For larger projects, it can be helpful to speak to a previous customer who had similar work completed.
Before work begins, make sure you receive a written quotation or contract. This should explain the agreed price, payment schedule, materials, start date, expected completion time and any guarantees offered.
Independent Local Roofing Contractors
The roofers introduced through GetRoofingQuotes.co.uk operate as independent businesses. They are not employees, representatives or agents of GetRoofingQuotes.co.uk or Leads Do Work Ltd.
Each contractor sets their own prices, decides which enquiries to accept and remains responsible for the advice, quotations and roofing work they provide. Any contract for work will be made directly between you and the roofing company you appoint.
Our role is to help make the initial introduction. We do not carry out roofing work, prepare quotations, supervise contractors or guarantee the outcome of a project.
UK Roofing Coverage
We help homeowners find roofing contractors throughout England, Scotland and Wales. Our network includes roofers serving large cities, smaller towns and surrounding rural areas.
Coverage can vary by location and by the type of roofing work required. For example, a contractor who carries out new roof replacements may not offer asbestos removal or conservatory roof replacement.
When you submit an enquiry, we use your postcode and project details to look for suitable contractors. In many areas, we can introduce you to more than one roofer, although we cannot guarantee that four contractors will always be available.
Helping You Make an Informed Choice
Our aim is to make the first stage of finding a roofer simpler. Receiving several quotes can give you a clearer idea of the likely cost and help you understand the different ways contractors may approach the project.
Before choosing a roofer, take time to compare the full details of each quotation. Check whether the contractor has included scaffolding, skips, waste disposal, replacement timber, roof insulation, leadwork and finishing work.
You should avoid paying the full amount in advance. A reasonable deposit may be required for materials or to confirm a booking, but the payment schedule should be agreed in writing before the project starts.
For major roof replacements, you may also want to ask whether the contractor provides an insurance-backed guarantee or a workmanship warranty. Make sure you understand what the guarantee covers and how long it remains valid.
