Roof inspections in Long Sutton
A full roof check with photographs: before you buy a house, after a storm, or before you commit to work. Don't get your roof done till we've seen it.
Don't get your roof done till we've seen it. We say that because the roofing trade runs on the fact that you cannot see your own roof, and a second opinion with photographs changes the conversation completely. One customer called our inspection a roof MOT, and the name has stuck because that is exactly what it is.
When an inspection earns its keep
Three moments, mostly. Before you buy a house in Long Sutton, because the roof is the most expensive thing a survey tends to skim over. After a storm, when you want to know whether that noise in the night moved anything. And before you commit to work someone else has quoted, because a big figure deserves a second pair of eyes on the actual problem. We did a roof MOT on a rental property for exactly this reason: the owner wanted to know the truth of the roof, not a sales pitch about it.
What we actually do
We go over the roof properly and photograph what we find: the coverings, the ridge, the flashings, the chimney, the gutters, all of it. Then we sit down with you and go through the pictures in plain words. Around Long Sutton that often means older roofs where the question is not whether anything is wrong but how much of it matters yet, and that is an honest conversation worth having early.
What you get at the end
You get the photographs, a straight explanation of what they show, and a clear steer on what needs doing now, what can wait, and what is fine. If work is needed, the price for it goes in writing, and the written price is the price you pay. If nothing is needed, we tell you that, and you have a photographic record of your Long Sutton roof to compare against next time the wind has been through. No pressure either way: the point of an inspection is that you decide with the facts in front of you.

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.
Brilliant work! Reasonable price a friendly. Recommend to anyone. Sorted out my roof after 3 companies turned me down.
Amazing roof repair everything finished to a high standard,good communication and reasonable priced would definetly recommend.

Roof Inspections in Long Sutton: common questions
What does a roof inspection in Long Sutton cost?
Tell us what you need it for and we will give you the price in writing before anything is booked, the same as every job we do. No number is invented on the phone, and the figure you are given is the figure you pay.
We are buying an older cottage in Long Sutton. Is an inspection worth it?
That is one of the best times to have one. An older roof can be perfectly sound or quietly expensive, and photographs taken before you exchange tell you which one you are buying.
What is a roof MOT for a house in Long Sutton?
It is what one of our customers christened the inspection, and it fits: a full check of the roof with photographs and a plain verdict on what passes, what needs attention and what fails.
Do you inspect roofs this far out from Spalding?
Yes. Long Sutton is squarely inside the patch we cover day to day, about six miles east of Holbeach, so an inspection out here is a normal run for us.
