Things Pitstone customers ask first
How far are you from Pitstone?+
Our yard is in High Wycombe — about 14.6 miles, roughly 35 minutes off-peak via B488. That keeps travel charges down and return visits painless.
What's your busiest time of year in Pitstone?+
Autumn and early spring — after the first B489-corridor storms expose weak spots. Book LU7 surveys 2-4 weeks ahead during those windows.
Any payment options on bigger Pitstone jobs?+
Staged payments on jobs over £8k — typically 30% on scaffold, 40% on weatherproof, 30% on completion. No deposit before scaffold.
Why might a Pitstone quote come in higher than a national average?+
Access, scaffold days and tile matching for the LU7 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.
Do you do fixed-price quotes for Pitstone 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.
