Start with the property
Where a property is exposed to coastal weather, ask how the proposed covering, fixings and edge details suit the site. Avoid assuming that a standard inland specification fits every roof.
Questions for a clearer brief
- Is the roof exposed to coastal weather or strong winds?
- How will the proposed fixings and edge details suit that exposure?
A postcode helps Bark find relevant professionals. Explain the roof type, visible symptoms, approximate size and timing. Photograph only what you can see safely from the ground or inside the building.
Compare written proposals
Ask what was inspected, what is included and how access, waste and possible hidden defects will be handled. The number of responses depends on local availability and your request.
