Flashing/ soakers leak on pitched slate roof
(Updated on 9 Jun 2020)Roy was made aware of the urgency of the main repairs, as it was still winter and raining regularly, we didn’t want the new bathroom ceiling spoiling right away since it was freshly plastered.
We explained to Roy we wanted quality work. Roy was brimming with confidence at first.
When his quote came it was very expensive, I did ask Roy how much work he thought it would be. He said at least 2 days.
His quote was £1500. This was for him and a helper.
Roy “Completed” his initial work in one day we were quite surprised again. He had implied that the work he intended to do would be more of an undertaking than the work he actually completed. I suspect this was to justify his heavily inflated quote.
In the quote Roy clearly states he guarantees his work for 10 Years. I can say that his first attempts did not even last 10 hours. All subsequent attempts did not last any significant length of time either.
He did come back and did make 4 attempts at repairs to the problem areas, but each time failing. All I can say is that his work is very much attempts at “quick fixes” (bodges). Not using original or correct materials for the job. Not diagnosing the reasons for leaks correctly. Not investigating properly.
Roy worded his quote very carefully as to not commit to any specific type or quality of repair.
Roy has ignored all contact once I started asking for a refund on the failed work. So in the end the whole thing was a complete waste of money.
Hi "guarantee" is fake. Avoid!
