Burnley Landlords — Flat Roofs Done Properly
Landlords calling us are usually balancing three things at once — tenant safety, void time, and the invoice trail their accountant needs.
The flat roofs work itself
Most failed flat roofs were never installed properly in the first place — wrong falls, badly bonded laps, no upstands. We strip back to the deck, replace any rotten boards, set correct falls, and bond the new EPDM or GRP membrane in one continuous piece wherever possible. The result is a flat roof that lasts decades, not seasons.
What landlords typically ask us first
On flat roof repair & installation jobs for landlords, the priorities are usually predictable — and different from a walk-in domestic call. Here's what we plan around on a Burnley tenanted terraces job.
- Same-week attendance to avoid escalating tenant complaints
- Documented make-safe so the property meets basic habitability
- Itemised VAT invoices addressed to the landlord or letting agent
- Photographs before and after every visit for the tenancy file
- Options that protect the roof for the next 5–10 year hold
What you get in writing
Every flat roof repair & installation job for landlords in Burnley closes with the same paperwork so nothing is verbal.
- Itemised written quote (VAT-separated)
- Photographic before/after record
- Written workmanship guarantee
- Emailed invoice within 24 hours of completion
How the flat roofs job runs for landlords
We coordinate access directly with the tenant, work around agreed hours, and never leave the property open overnight. Payment terms and invoice format are agreed in writing before we start.
Typical duration: 1–4 days depending on size — most domestic extensions are completed in two days.
