Re-roofing and new roofs in Whaplode
When patching stops making sense, we strip the roof back and build it up properly, tiled or slate, with the price agreed in writing first.
Some roofs have been patched so many times that another repair is throwing good money after bad. If a roof in Whaplode has got to that point we will tell you straight, and we will show you the photographs that prove it, because the decision to re-roof should be made on evidence, not on a salesman's say-so.
What goes into one of our re-roofs
We strip the old covering back and rebuild from the timbers up. On a recent full re-roof that meant Proctor Air breathable membrane, treated battens, anthracite interlocking tiles, and dry-fix ridge and hips, so there is no mortar up there to crack and wash out. The chimney got new lead soakers, step flashing, an apron and a back gutter, and the job was finished with new guttering and downpipes. We work in both tile and slate, and we will talk you through which suits your house and your budget.
Scaffolding on the main road
A lot of the older houses in Whaplode front close onto the main road, so scaffolding takes a bit of planning. That is built into how we work: once you have accepted the written price, we tell you exactly when the scaffolding, the skip and the materials will arrive, so nothing turns up outside your door unannounced.
Checked, guaranteed, in writing
On one of our full re-roofs, an independent Building Control inspector from Boston Borough Council checked the work twice and signed it off. We are happy to have our work looked over, because it stands up to it. Every re-roof comes with a written quote where the price quoted is the price paid, a 25 year guarantee, and public liability and employer's liability insurance throughout. A contribution from every completed job goes to the QEH King's Lynn NICU charity, whether the roof is in Whaplode or anywhere else we work.

What people say
In their words, not ours
One of the problems of finding a roofer when you are an older person is the thought of being scammed, especially given the increasing numbers of rogue traders together with the high costs at stake especially if the work is poor or non existent. We trawled a lot of roofers and found varying prices and limited experience and ‘one man bands’ offering little or no guarantees for their work. We came across Fred’s newly formed EverCrest Property Care Ltd Company and were initially concerned at the limited 3 months or so that they had been trading for, albeit that Fred had been a Sole Trader for some 6 years. So we undertook a ‘due diligence’ on the company and found they had worked on a limited number of roofing projects in the start up time. However having had a number of positive conversations with Fred we decided to give his company a chance having had a very good response and price to our required specification that formed the basis of our Building Control Application through Boston Borough Council. They say you can only make a first impression once and EverCrest Property Care Ltd certainly made an excellent impression indeed, in fact the work they undertook was first class and our Building Control Inspector was equally impressed with the standard of works they carried out. Our project involved replacing a main roof on a detached property and likewise on a kitchen extension. Work commenced on a Friday with the scaffolding being erected along with the delivery of two skips. On the Monday morning around 8:30am a team of 7 arrived on site and by 10am both roofs had been stripped and the Building Inspector was called early to check out the structure prior to the roofers installing the new insulation, membrane and battening in readiness for the new soffits, guttering and tiles being installed from Tuesday onwards. By Thursday the project had been completed and the Building Inspector returned first thing Friday morning and signed off the work having been impressed with the finished work. On the basis of the above experience we would have no hesitation in recommending EverCrest Property Care Ltd as a suitable and very experienced roofing contractor and would be happy to give any references to their standard of works.

Amazing roof repair everything finished to a high standard,good communication and reasonable priced would definetly recommend.
Before you ring
Re-Roofing & New Roofs in Whaplode: common questions
How much does a new roof cost?
It depends on the size and pitch of the roof, the covering you choose and the lead work involved, so an honest answer needs a visit. We look for free and give you a full price in writing. The price quoted is the price paid.
We are right on the main road. Can you still scaffold the house?
Yes. Plenty of properties along the road through the village front close to it. We plan the scaffold around the access and tell you in advance exactly when the scaffolding, skip and materials will arrive.
Do you re-roof in slate as well as tile?
We do both. Full re-roofs and new roofs in tile or slate, and we will go through the options with you when we come out to look and quote.
Is your re-roofing work independently checked?
It can be, and it has been. On one full re-roof an independent Building Control inspector from Boston Borough Council checked the job twice and signed it off. On top of that, the finished roof is guaranteed for 25 years.
