  • So… how much to fix my ridge tiles?

    In central Scotland.

    One ridge tile has come off, it’s still on the roof and isn’t broken. However the whole ridge line looks like it needs redoing, suprised I’ve not had one displaced before now TBH.

    Assuming the existing tiles can be re-used, how much am I looking at for the work?

    I paid £150 for all the ridge tiles recementing and some pointing at either end of the buiding on a long commercial property.
    If it hadn’t have been high up i would have done it myself.

    Hmm, that’s better than expected.

    I wonder if all the roofers have tripled their prices following this wind. 😐

    Next question: Can anyone recommend a roofer in the Dunfermline area?

    I’ve had the same in Dunfermline. Lost ridge tiles and several main roof tiles along with garage damage.. I’ll end up going through insurance as I’ve zero excess and not a lot of Ncb to lose due to a previous water leak. The braisby roofing guys live near me, I’ve never used them to recommend them. I’ve had a lot of cards through the door today and had to move the cars and van in case any more unstable tiles come down.

    Ditto on the insurance MrGrim. That’s what we pay the premiums for.

    Take it you are in the C’hill area? Friend of Messrs Hardie per chance?

    The Braisby boys are good but are suited more for the bigger jobs.

    Closer to the centre of town. Not friends with the guys, but do use the shop from time to time.

    Thanks all, those sort of prices sound better than I was expecting.

    Expensive month so far – car ins, MOT, Service and Timing belt all needing done too 🙁

    I paid £180 for 4 hip tiles to be replaced .
    Was a pain as it was the middle section and the ones purchased were of a different length to the originals, so 1 had to be cut down .
    This is in Hampshire so maybe different rates to ooop north .
    Or i was stitched up , but they stayed on today so must have been a reasonable job.
