If your chimney is no longer in use, we can also provide safe chimney removal and roof-over services.Leadwork is a specialist skill, and our team is expert in installing and repairing lead gutters, flashings, and soakers.

Roofing FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our professional roof repairs, slating, and tiling services across Lanark, Scotland and South Lanarkshire.

How do I know if I need a new roof or just a repair?

+

If you only see one or two slipped slates or a small damp patch, a repair is usually enough. However, if your roof is over 60 years old and you are constantly paying for small fixes, a new roof might be more cost-effective. We provide honest inspections to tell you exactly what you need.

Can you help with emergency roof repairs in South Lanarkshire?

+

Yes, we know that a leak can’t always wait. If you have storm damage or a sudden leak, give us a call. We will do our best to get out to you quickly to make the property watertight and prevent further damage.

What are the benefits of hiring local slaters in Lanark for heritage work?

+

Working on older buildings requires specific knowledge of traditional materials like Scotch slate. As local slaters, we understand the architectural history of Lanark and make sure our work matches the original style while providing modern levels of protection.

How long does it take to roughcast a house?

+

A typical semi-detached house usually takes about 3 to 5 days, depending on the weather. We make sure the site is kept tidy and the work is finished to a high standard to give your home a fresh look and better weatherproofing.

Is leadwork repair expensive?

+

Lead is a premium material, but it is also the most durable way to waterproof joins on a roof. Repairing or replacing leadwork around chimneys or valleys is a vital investment that prevents much more expensive internal water damage.
