Roof Replacement in Eyres Monsell

What a Full Roof Replacement Involves

Survey, Specification and Quote

Full re-roof starts with a detailed on-site survey covering tile specification, structural timber condition, drainage and access. Written itemised quote before any decision. We install temporary weatherproofing at the end of each working day — no open roof left overnight. Conservation area requirements are identified and advised on as part of the survey process.

Eyres Monsell: 1960s Estate Roofing

Eyres Monsell is a 1960s local authority housing estate in south Leicester. The housing stock — predominantly two and three-bedroom semis with concrete interlocking tile roofs — is a decade newer than Braunstone but is now entering the same nail sickness progression. The steel fixing nails from 1960s Leicester council housing are 60+ years old and corroding across the estate. Unlike Braunstone where nail sickness is well advanced, Eyres Monsell is at the stage where proactive intervention is most cost-effective — many properties have tiles that are close to but not yet at displacement stage, making re-nailing before the first storm displacement significantly cheaper than the same work plus emergency call-out.

How to Get a Quote From Us

The Process From First Call to Written Quote

Our quoting process is straightforward and quick. Call 0116 319 1348 to book a free survey — we typically confirm a visit within 24–48 hours and can often attend within the same week for standard jobs. The survey takes 20–45 minutes depending on the scope of work, and we provide a written itemised quote within 48 hours of the visit.

The written quote specifies every element of the work: scope, materials by name, access method, guarantee period and payment terms. We never start work without written acceptance of the quote. We don't require payment in full before work starts — a reasonable deposit of 10–25% covers material ordering, with final payment on satisfactory completion. We accept bank transfer and card payment and provide a VAT invoice on all work.

What Happens After You Accept a Quote

Once you accept the written quote, we schedule the work and confirm a start date. For larger jobs involving scaffold, we confirm scaffold erection dates separately. We contact you the working day before the start date to confirm the team is attending. On the day, the lead roofer will introduce themselves and walk through the planned work before starting. Any unexpected findings — structural timber problems, additional lead work required — are communicated immediately with a written price before any additional work is carried out. We don't make decisions on site without your knowledge and approval.
