Are your Kelso roofers fully qualified, licensed, and insured?

The company is fully insured with £5 million public liability and £10 million employers’ liability cover, giving you peace of mind that your property and our workers are protected throughout the project.
How fast can you attend emergency roof repairs in the Kelso area?
Because we are locally based, we aim to reach most emergency call-outs within 2 hours and always within the same day. Our vans carry a wide stock of slate, tiles, battens, felt, and sealants so we can perform immediate temporary fixes to stop water ingress, followed by a permanent repair once weather conditions and materials allow.
Which roofing materials perform best in Kelso’s climate?
Kelso experiences frequent rainfall, occasional high winds, and winter temperature fluctuations. We typically recommend: • Natural Scottish or Welsh slate for its durability and wind resistance. • High-grade concrete or clay interlocking tiles with secure mechanical fixings. • Breathable roof membranes and proper ventilation to combat condensation. • EPDM or GRP fibreglass systems for flat roofs, as they tolerate standing water and temperature shifts. We will discuss your budget, aesthetic goals, and planning guidelines before finalising any material choice.
Do you provide free roof inspections and written estimates?
Absolutely. We offer complimentary on-site inspections anywhere within a 20-mile radius of Kelso. After assessing your roof, we supply a detailed, no-obligation quotation that breaks down labour, materials, waste disposal, and timescales. We are happy to explain each line item so you know exactly what you are paying for.
What guarantees do you give on new roof installations?
All new pitched roofs come with a 10-year workmanship guarantee, while flat roofs are covered for 15 years. In addition, most manufacturers provide material warranties of 20–40 years on slate, tiles, and membranes, which we register in your name upon project completion. We also schedule a complimentary annual inspection during the guarantee period to catch minor issues before they become costly repairs.
