Do you do fixed-price quotes for Chorleywood jobs?+
Yes — once we've surveyed the roof, we issue a written fixed-price quote. Only genuinely hidden issues (rotten timbers under intact tiles) ever move the figure, and we always show you first.

Access, scaffold days and tile matching for the WD3 housing stock all push the number around. That's the kind of local factor a national price calculator misses, which is why we quote on site.
