What to notice around storm-loosened chimney flashings
Identify the work needed around storm-loosened chimney flashings using the inspection photographs Adam supplies with your written quotation.
Lifted chimney lead
Tell Adam about rain entering beside a chimney during strong wind; an inspection needs to establish whether the lead has torn as well as lifted before the visible problem is priced.
Look beyond the storm-loosened detail
The reason for looking closely at storm-loosened chimney flashings is that lifted lead leaves the masonry junction open to driving rain, with the adjoining lead fixing points forming part of the inspection.
Previous work needs explaining
Bring any records relating to your storm-loosened chimney flashings, including photographs or descriptions of earlier work, so Adam can compare the previous scope with the roof now.
A clear scope is missing
Before agreeing your urgent roof work, ask the roofer to explain whether the lead has torn as well as lifted and identify the proposed work at the adjoining lead fixing points.

Lifted chimney lead in Bedford
Bedford includes the Victorian houses around De Parys as well as the slate and clay roofs by the Embankment, with different surroundings for storm-loosened chimney flashings to be checked against. For storm-loosened chimney flashings, the useful question is whether the lead has torn as well as lifted, especially beside a dormer meeting an intersecting pitch. Adam looks at the existing lead fixing points and records the detail before recommending the urgent roof work. Your proposal for storm-loosened chimney flashings follows your own building, so a nearby roof of the same age is not evidence of what this detail needs.
Customer accounts relevant to urgent roof work
Very professional first visit. Very informative and gave options & samples. Arrived on time each day, did a great job and helped with another little job not relating to the roof... very polite and tidy too. Would definitely reccommend.
Cannot give anything other than a 10/10. Callback for job was quick, came out within an hr of calling. Did not try and over sell their services. Very informative about options available and not pushy at all.
...He talked us through exactly what he would do, including the measures he would take to protect the plants, and clear up the inevitable mess. His quote was very competitive, but his manner convinced us as much as anything that we should place the job with him. He set a date, and exactly stuck to it...
