Project-Specific Terms

  1. Flat Roof Falls – Unless otherwise stated in your quote, we have allowed for laying new flat roof coverings to existing falls only.

  2. Water & Power Use – We may require the free use of the client's water and power supply, but only when essential for completing the work.

  3. Roof Covering Removal – Unless specifically stated otherwise in your quote, we have allowed for the removal of one existing roof covering when renewing a flat roof (e.g., 20mm asphalt, 3-layer felt, lead, or zinc covering).

  4. Water Pooling Disclaimer – While we take every precaution, we cannot guarantee the complete prevention of water pooling. Even with fall alterations, some pooling may still occur due to the building's structural properties. This will not affect your guarantee on our professionally installed roofing systems.

  5. Scope of Work – Only items specifically listed in the quote are covered. Additional work would require a separate agreement.

  6. Internal Plasterwork Disclaimer – For renewal works (e.g., flat or pitched roof renewals), minor plaster damage may occur due to unavoidable vibrations (e.g., nail heads showing through plaster). These are typically easy to fill, but we are not responsible for any repairs should they arise.

  7. Effect of Pooling on Roofing Systems – Water pooling on 3-layer felt systems, guttering, GRP systems, or lead installations will not adversely affect the materials or performance of our work.
